If you are like me, not a huge fan of this night and Holiday, don't fret!
Tonight you have two awesome hockey games to help you bring in 2017.
The World Juniors has its headliner tonight. If you only watch one game in this tournament, the Canada vs USA New Year's Eve game is the game to watch. This game never disappoints and has brought with it some remarkable moments. The rivalry between these teams goes deep and these players know each other almost too well. This is a game about personal pride.
My prediction: Canada 4-3
If you are more of an NHL purist, then you really can't beat the unlikely battle of unbeaten in Columbus, as the Jackets (winners of 14 straight) take on the Wild (winners of 12 straight). When the NHL schedule was announced you could have gotten some damn good odds if you had said this particular game would be the game of the year....but both of these teams have worked and worked their way to this...
My prediction: Wild 3-1
What are your picks?
