Looking for a Great Hockey Event in Ottawa. From Decemeber 26
to January 5 2009, IIHF World Junior Chanpionship is coming to
Ottawa. Hockey Canada and the host committee has announced that
up to 40 hopefuls will be competing at Canada's junior team selection
camp, at the SotiaBank Arena on December 12. The tournament will
feature 10 countries competing in 31games. Games will take place
at Scotiabank Place in Kanata, and the Ottawa Civic Centre in
The Glebe.
Organizers hope to set a new World Junior attendance record.
If all 31 games sell out, attendance could surpass 456,000. The
current record is 374,353, set in 2006 in Vancouver-Kamloops.
