Hockey's best junior talent face-off today to launch the most important tournament of the year. With the pride of their nations at stake; and their hockey careers potentially made, or broken; the highlight is an unusually early tournament meeting between Canada and the USA. This is the first time in several years these two teams have played their opening day game against each other.

TSN will have coverage of all the action. If you miss a game, they will no doubt be repeated later in the day. The NHL Network will carry all the games in the USA. Here are the game times and the Maple Leafs prospects in action. (all times are EST)
