The recent World Juniors Championships can motivate Team Canada, which has achieved back-to-back fifth-place finishes at the WJC.
This hopeful redemption tour will continue on Saturday, Dec. 27, against Latvia.
Team Canada's Gavin McKenna came up with a motto for his nation's role in this year's WJC. McKenna said, "Every team's goal is to win it, and we want to kill their dreams."
This year's team is looking to make its way back to the podium after several years of disappointment.
