This weekend sees Canada take on the USA in St. John's for the first of two critical World Cup qualifiers against the Americans. Saturday's proceedings and the follow up in Denver a week later will determine whether Canada will be competing for the Americas 1 berth in Pool A. If Canada do not win the two game series on aggregate then they still have a chance at qualifying for the Americas 2 berth in Pool D. Whichever way you cut it it's a difficult route for a team that simply hasn't fired a genuine shot in anger for several years now and sits 22nd on the World Rankings Table.
