Canada will probably win the world juniors — but do you care?

This is an excerpt from The Buzzer, which is CBC Sports' daily email newsletter. Stay up to speed on what's happening in sports by subscribing here. Last night's 6-3 win over Switzerland advanced Canada to the semifinals of the rescheduled 2022 world junior hockey championship in Edmonton.

Though they were a bit sloppy at times against a clearly inferior opponent, the host team showed once again why they're favoured to win gold.

Led by tournament scoring leader Mason McTavish and 17-year-old phenom Connor Bedard, Canada is now a perfect 5-0 for the tournament and has outscored its foes 33-10.

Hours after the Canadians' victory, their biggest obstacle to winning the title was removed when the defending-champion United States suffered a stunning 4-2 upset at the hands of the Czech Republic.
