Euro Curve takes a look at the latest international hockey headlines.


Illegal Curve favourite Czech hockey blogger Ceske Budejovice (http://vakfan.blogspot.com)reveals that the Under-17 Four Nations tournament final between Russia and The United States, held in Dmitrov, Russia, ended with a good ol’ fashioned bench clearing brawl. Russia won the game 2-1.

I have included the Youtube video link ( cause I don’t know how to post it directly on the site) of the infamous 1987 World Junior Championships brawl between Team Canada and Team Russia which saw both teams kicked out of the tournament.

For Illegal Curve, I’m Ezra Ginsburg.
