I don't blame them. When it's in the States, I don't think very many Americans are cheering for Canadians. It's not strange. We don't care about who is behind us and who is not. We are here to win a tournament.

We hate them every bit as much as they hate us.

I hadn't even heard of the world junior tournament until I came to Canada. I was 16 before I saw a game and I had no idea it was played over Christmas.

I'm the go-to guy like Corey was last year. Actually, last year, we had seven guys who were go-to guys and it was amazing. But this year, we've come together as a team. We have our own identity and we know what it takes to win.

There's a lot of skill on this team, a lot of grit, a lot of everything. We've got big, fast, skilled forwards, so it's a pretty good team and well put together.

Here and there we have had lapses. We have a tie and two wins. We can't wait until we play a full 60 minutes.

Canada lost a lot of guys from the team that won the (2005) gold medal. But you can't put the best team in the tournament together every single year. You can only put together what you have.

A guy like Adam, you want to get him the shutout and you feel bad for him when they score late on him like that. He deserves it. He stops everything for us.

They (the fans) were pretty annoying. Only half of the area behind our bench is glass -- it's like Kitchener in the penalty box -- so you can hear everything they're saying and they were really giving it to me. All I can do is go out there and keep scoring goals.
