Sweden/Canada Exhibition @ 7PM

With the World Junior Championships only a week away, preliminary matches are getting started and tonight, it's a rematch of last year's gold medal game.

Sweden will take on Canada at 7PM and the game will be broadcast live on TSN, as well as online (though you're probably going to have to live in Canada or use a proxy to get it).

Jacob Markström, Florida's first pick of the 2008 Entry Draft (second round) will likely be the Swedish starter in the tournament, while the two potential top picks this year (Victor Hedman and John Tavares) will go against each other for the first time in their draft year.

When the tournament officially begins on December 26th, the NHL Network will air all of the USA games (and Canada's games) so you'll also have plenty of chances to watch Matt Rust in his second stint with the U.S. national team.
