    Excerpt from the TSN game review of Canada’s 8-1 victory against the Czech Republic:

    John Tavares is certainly living up to his billing at the World Junior Hockey Championship, scoring Canada’s first two goals on the power play and assisting on another as the defending gold medalists soundly beat the Czech Republic 8-1 in their opening game.

    Angelo Esposito, Ryan Ellis, Tyler Ennis, Chris DiDomenico, Zach Boychuk and Alex Pietrangelo also scored for Canada, who are seeking their fifth straight World Junior title for the second time in tournament history.
