WJCs: USA vs. Czechs tonight

Team USA returns to action tonight, matched up with the Czech Republic. USA Hockey’s WJC blog provides some insights into Colin Wilson’s sense of humor, while Dave Starman, who is doing color on the NHL Network broadcasts provides comments for USCHO.com and lens-ace Melissa Wade offers a pictorial display from Friday’s USA-Germany game.

Looking back
The Terriers are a few days from their next game, but a couple of former teammates from BU's powerhouse teams in the 70s, now longtime rival Division III coaches, will be facing off tonight. Bowdoin College, led by Terry Meagher, in his 26th year, meets host Salem State in the Holiday Class. The Vikings are coached by Bill O’Neill, in his 28th season.

Adrian Aucoin’s third period slapshot was the gamewinner in last night’s Calgary 6-3 win over Ottawa. . It was his fifth goal of the season...Mike Grier also scored his fifth of the season for San Jose, but it came in a 3-2 shootout loss to Keith Tkachuk and the Blues...Carl Corazzini netted his third of the season for Springfield in a loss to Hartford...Sean Sullivan had the primary assisted on the game-winning goal in San Antonio’s 5-3 win against Houston... On Friday, John Curry pitched his first shutout of the year for the Baby Pens, blanking the Philly Phantoms.
