{allcanada} Visentin replaces Roy in net for Canada

 

BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Mark Visentin will be in goal for Canada in a quarter-final game against Switzerland on Sunday at the world junior hockey championship.

Coach Dave Cameron opted to change goaltenders after Olivier Roy struggled in a 6-5 shootout loss to Sweden in the team's final preliminary round game.

It will be Visentin's second start of the tournament after playing in a 10-1 victory over Norway.

The quarter-final marks the start of single-game knockout competition at the tournament. The winner will face the United States in a semifinal on Monday.

Russia plays Finland in the other quarter-final.
