Re: 2016 World Junior Championship

I don't like Donato and don't feel like he is worthy of this team or being a second rounder. Hope I am wrong but his selection smells too much like a favor to his dad

I initially felt that way but after attending a practice a session felt he really stood out. Glad he made team in last year of eligibility.

Funny. That is what people said about Vesey. Vesey displacing Grimaldi on Johnny G's line was the difference that year.

I have seen Donato with the U-18 team, the South Shore Kings, and now with the WJC team in Amherst. He hasn't "stood" out to me in any of those games.

Don't forget! Holiday hockey today, 1pm eastern. USA vs. Canada. NHL network. If anyone has a streaming solution that does not involve the Russian mafia, please chime in.

I'm outright shocked NHL.com doesn't seem to be airing the NHL Network feed like they have for the past 3-4 years. I would check there just in case, but unlike years past, none of the previews from the NHL or USA Hockey mention streaming happening. Whoever decided not to stream it made the usual short-sighted decision everyone in the hockey world is known for.

Similarly outrageous is that all of the content on ESPN is for insiders. Way to grow the sport!

Go down on the left and find TSN. Make sure you have an ad blocker installed.. When the screen pops up, click on all the little x's. DO NOT click on the play arrow. That will go away and start the stream when you click the little x right above it.
 
Re: 2016 World Junior Championship

US has passed on a few chances to shoot and instead tried for the extra pass which has failed to connect on each instance.

If you have the puck with a lane... SHOOT!

Don't pass into traffic.
 
Terrible penalty by US.

Well the first great 10 minutes were followed by Canada completely dominating the second 10.

DeBrincat totally lost his cool with a very stupid penalty. You have to know that crap is going to happen and now you've just cost your team with a big penalty. Hopefully the US can hold.

What a save by goalie too reaching back and getting a piece of that with his paddle after he had been beaten.
 
Re: 2016 World Junior Championship

DeBrincat with a foolish penalty on the big stage, could have gotten the Canadian for embellishment though.
