MONTREAL — Five things to watch when Canada plays Finland on Monday night at the world junior championship:1.
[b]Michael Deiter Jersey[/b] . Revenge factor: Finland beat Canada 5-1 in the semifinals last year in Malmo, Sweden to extend Canadas gold medal drought to five years. The Finns went on to win for the first time since 1998.2. Patience: Finland plays a tight checking game and thrives on turnovers. Canada will try to use its speed and depth up front to keep pressure on the Finns, who will likely keep it a low-scoring game.3. Special teams: Canada killed off all nine penalties it took in the opening two games, while Finland has looked awful with the man advantage. Finland has yet to convert one of its 10 power-play opportunities despite having a skilled point man in Julius Honka.4. Teen star: One of Finlands most dangerous forwards is 16-year-old Jesse Puljujarvi. Hes six foot three, fast and skilled and wont be eligible for the NHL draft until 2016.5. Petan on a roll: Winnipeg Jets prospect Nic Petan had three points in each of Canadas first two games.
