Watched Canada’s game this morning. Hard to get a good read given the opponent, but the Western kids were a cut above for me. Ruck twins were dominant, as expected; Preston was very creative offensively, but maybe tried to do a bit too much with the puck at times; and Rudolph and Lin were the best of the dmen IMO.

Given the Ruck twins and Preston have played together for a few years (although they didn’t play together 5 on 5 in this game) it shouldn’t be surprising they looked the most comfortable out of the gate. Having said that, I’ve been very impressed with the Western kids relative to Ontario/Quebec since the CSSHL has taken off.

Do you have the box score?, i know the goal scorers but who got the assists no idea.
I know that Liam Ruck scored 3 goals and Preston scored 1.

Also, eliteprospects doesn't show that both Rucks twins playing for team Canada

Edit : i found the box score

Thank you so much! They always make these things so difficult to navigate through to find the VOD.
I tested that this morning and it worked.. getting ready for Czechs vs Slovakia later.. had to bookmark it as the site is absolutely awful to navigate. I did the login with google account. The stream was actually good.. commentator and good quality.

Czechs have been dominant but Slovak goalie Dvorak has been great. 0-0 after 2. Feels, to me, like Slovakia has held on and will score and win.

Some takeaways...

15 minute periods not 20
90 second powerplays not 120
I think these are the best U16 players in the world.. maybe?
I think this is a legit tournament with prestige
I think we are in Asia
I think it's the best free feed I've ever had!

Katolicky with a big chance for a hat trick. Dvorak (Slovak G) is exceptional!!! I'm putting him on the draft radar!

ENG... 3-2... Slovaks battled hard. In this case, Czechs were better. I love my Slovak hockey but this wasn't close game wise but it was score wise. I really enjoyed this Czech team and how they played.

Oh shit.. I think that elimantes Slovakia!!!! f***, well now I hate that we won. 2 games in a 3 pool round robin. Slovaks have 1 point after 2 games, we have 3 points and US has 2 points. No scenario for them to gain points. That sucks.

I saw from the record, we gave a good performance.
