TORONTO - Zach Fucale will return to the Canadian net tonight against Denmark after splitting the preliminary round games with teammate Eric Comrie at the world junior hockey championship. You can watch the game live on TSN1, TSN3, TSN4, TSN5 and TSN GO NOW or listen to the game on the TSN Radio Network. Comrie made 25 saves in Canadas 5-3 victory over the United States on Wednesday at Montreals Bell Centre. Both goaltenders have won two games apiece for the unbeaten host side. It just shows how this staff has confidence in both of us and everyone on the team, Fucale said after Thursdays practice at Air Canada Centre. Its not a problem. (Comrie) and I have been working hard and we just want to contribute. To an outsider, Canada appears to be simply rotating its two goaltenders. However, head coach Benoit Groulx said theres a process to his staffs decision on who plays. We sit down, the coaches, we talk with our hockey people, he said. When we sit down after each game and we discuss that matter, we all agreed on what weve got to do. For us, were very comfortable with both goalies. No tough debate. Were pretty much on the same page. Its always a tough decision because both of them deserve to play. The Canada-Denmark winner will play either the Czech Republic or Slovakia in the semifinals. The Sweden-Finland quarter-final winner will play the winner of the Russia-United States game. Comrie, a Winnipeg Jets 2013 second-round pick, has a 1.55 goals-against average and .933 save percentage in his two appearances. Fucale, who was drafted in the second round by the Montreal Canadiens, has a 0.50 GAA and .975 save percentage. Forward Sam Reinhart is thankful hes not the one making the goaltending decision. Im not too surprised were still switching them, he said. I dont know how you put one over the other. Theyve both been great. Fucale has the edge when it comes to experience. The 19-year-old netminder was 2-2 with a 2.42 GAA and .902 save percentage at last years world juniors as Canada settled for a fourth-place finish. He also won a MasterCard Memorial Cup with the Halifax Mooseheads in 2013 and earned a gold medal at the 2012 Ivan Hlinka Memorial tournament. You learn a lot when you win, but you learn twice as much when you lose so things like last year is a little extra motivation for us, said Fucale. We want to make sure we prepare well for this first game of the elimination round. Both Comrie and Fucale are familiar with Denmarks Nikolaj Ehlers, who has a goal and three assists in four games. He played with Fucale on the Mooseheads and like Comrie, was drafted by the Jets. We all know hes at his best when he skates and hes got great hands and shot so its no secret, said Fucale. Columbus Blue Jackets prospect Oliver Bjorkstrand leads Denmark with four goals and an assist. Denmark picked up the fourth seed in Group B following a 0-1-2-1 round-robin record. Theyre a big physical team, they play well in the corner, they sacrifice themselves and they have some skill, said Groulx. When you look at their specialty teams, theyre pretty good. Power play and penalty kill is pretty good and when you look at their ratio in terms of turnovers and takeaways theyre pretty good too. We expect a tough battle tomorrow. Denmark coach Olaf Eller admitted his team would face a major challenge in Canada. Were going to have to have great goaltending. Were going to get our power play going and were going to work our (expletive) off and then were going to need some good bounces (pause) and maybe a little bit more than that, Eller said of what his team would need to win. Its going to be a tough one for us. The semifinals will be played Sunday at Air Canada Centre. The medal games are scheduled for the same venue on Monday. Cheap MLB Jerseys Authentic .

When the one-hour mark arrived, Dempsey and the Seattle Sounders were trailing rival Portland by two goals. He wasnt about to check out. Dempsey scored the first hat trick in his MLS career, including goals in the 85th and 87th minutes to help the Sounders rally late for a wild 4-4 draw with the Timbers on Saturday. "You always feel good when you are contributing, scoring goals or getting assists," Dempsey said. "Im in a good rhythm at the moment and its about continuing that form." Trailing 4-2 for most of the second half after goals from Diego Chara and Maximiliano Urruti early in the half gave Portland the advantage, Dempsey led Seattles stunning late comeback to earn a point in the first Cascadia rivalry matchup of the season. Dempsey scored in the 85th minute to get Seattle within 4-3, a goal that felt was coming with the pressure the Sounders were pushing forward. Seconds later, Seattle defender DeAndre Yedlin was taken down in the penalty box by Portlands Ben Zemanski and referee Hilario Grajeda immediately pointed to the penalty spot. Yedlin said he was hoping to draw a penalty on the play and Zemanski obliged by clipping the young Seattle defender. After a brief discussion with Gonzalo Pineda, who was expecting to take the penalty kick, Dempsey stepped up. He converted the chance, beating former Seattle goalkeeper Andrew Weber to get Seattle even. "That point today felt like more than a point. It kind of felt like a win," Dempsey said. The afternoon was an advertisement for the league, even if it gave the coaches heartburn. Play was wide open and end-to-end. There were 41 shots and countless near misses. There were four goals in the first 25 minutes -- including goals from Seattles Kenny Cooper, Portland Diego Valeri and Dempsey -- along with the two late scores.dddddddddddd And the biggest star on the field burned brightest even if he was a little tired at the end. "Hes a leader. He wants to lead this team. He wants to show that last year was not the Clint Dempsey that were going to see this year," Seattle coach Sigi Schmid said. "And he wants to show people hes ready for the World Cup. I think he did that today." Seattle walked off thrilled with the final result and knowing there were other missed chances in the final minutes to get a winner. Meanwhile, the Timbers stood stunned as the worst start in their brief history continued. The Timbers have generally been slow starters since joining the league in 2011, but now have just three points after five games, not the opening anyone in Portland expected after reaching the Western Conference finals last season. "You should never give up 4 goals, and you should never tie a game if you score 4 goals," Portland coach Caleb Porter said. Chara was the star until Dempsey took over. On his 28th birthday, Chara scored in MLS play for the first time since September 2011. Seattle defence was willing to give him space and he took advantage with two perfectly placed shots from outside the penalty box. His first goal in the ninth minute deflected off goalkeeper Stephen Freis hand but had enough force to get into the net. His second goal, and what appeared to be the winner, came from about 25 yards and Frei had no chance at the save. Both times, Seattles defenders failed to step up and defend Charas shot. "I feel good, but obviously completely not happy with the game," Chara said. "We should have won that game, so to score 2 goals, for me, is good, but Id rather see a W than me score 2 goals." Urrutis goal in the 57th minute appeared to give Portland plenty of cushion. But Dempsey said otherwise and both sides had to settle for the draw in one of the wilder matchups of a rivalry dating to the mid-1970s. ' ' '
