Battle on the ice

Original Toronto Star caption: Battle on the ice: Team Canada's Alain cote (24) sets himself to block off a charge by a Swedish attacker in last night's encounter in the World Junior Hockey Championships at Hamilton. The Canadians knocked the Swedes around in the first period while building up a 4-0 lead and then skated to a 9-2 win; their fourth in a row in the championships; before a sellout crowd of 17;286.
