Bouchard & Nordic take on the World….

 

 

World Cup of hockey has kept some VHL fans interested in seeing how some of their favorite players fare against the best players in the world or maybe head-to-head against their own team mates. Pierre Marc Bouchard on the back of winning the Continental Cup was selected to play for Team Nordic; which was a bit or a surprise?

 

 

Bouchard started the tournament strongly with three goals in the first three games but has cooled as Nordic wrapped up the round robin play earlier today finish top of the table with 8-2-0 record with 23pts. Bouchard finished the round robin with 4 goals, 2 assist for 6 points in what might be described by some as disappointing round robin after the quick start seemed like this might have been a coming out party for the young Vancouver Wolve player. Instead, all eyes will be focused on Bouchard to see if he can up his game as the medal round starts tomorrow with Europe versus Europe match followed later in the day by World versus Canada with USA and Nordic waiting the winners.

 

 

Nordic on a positive note should at least play for a medal even if they choke due to the lack of performance by the young Wolf. Not sure how many are actually paying attention to the tournament as I know I have been passively paying attention rather focused on Christmas activities with the family.

 

 

Final words since I am running out of things to actually say and I am not sure I will be that active next week;

 

 

Merry Christmas VHL and Good Night to all…
