In the wake of another failure to reach the semifinals - the fourth time in seven years for the U.S. - team officials are left to ponder if they picked the correct players. Two notable omissions with elite skill: Londons Christian Dvorak (69 points in 35 games) and Youngstowns Kyle Connor (More than a point per game in USHL). HBI 2. Canadas Dept. of Defence The real heroes of defence are the soldiers recognized during World Junior games, but Canadas defencemen have been sensational. They are not sexy, just incredibly effective. Five 2013 World U18 gold medallists - Morrissey, Morin, Bowey, Heatherington and Theodore - are seeking to win another as U20 champs. HBI 3. These are not same Slovaks The Slovakian team that Canada routed on Boxing Day is not the same team it will confront Sunday.
