Prospect Info: WJC 2022: The Remix Edition

[DTR]

I’m genuinely surprised Edvinsson is taking part in the tournament. Having a Summer off and then jumping right into a best on best tournament seems like a recipe for ingesting soft tissue injuries but OTOH it could be a feast springboard into Camp.

Glad to see Wallinder made it this time around.

I'm excited to watch it. Always enjoy the Hlinka in the summer, will be cool to have 2 tournaments to watch.

For all the kitchen/armchair scouts out there.

I’m confused. Did Kasper not make the team?

EDIT: I’m an idiot. Forgot he was Austrian.

Lameeeee

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

That's for the best. That is a relegation level squad. I would much rather have Kasper playing champions hockey league games with Rogle.

So how many of our prospects are participating in this? (and who)

Think just Mazur for US and Edvinsson, Wallinder and Nider for Sweden.

I'm honestly more interested in the Hlinka, this summer WJC just doesn't feel right to me.

I'm just going to enjoy some August hockey, instead of going through withdrawal waiting for the Prospects camp.

Does anyone know if Cossa will play for Canada? or did he say screw them (cough Dave Cameron) lol

I'm putting the TV on beside the pool and crushing beers for all the games. I'm absolutely excited for this

Cossa is going I've read. No clue what goalie he'll be. If I'm them after his solid mem cup play I'm giving him the shot at being the starter again but who knows what theyll do

Cossa and Sebrango for Canada

I am ready to overreact!

@Lil Sebastian Cossa this is a big one for you.

@Unfriendly Ghost I miss 2020 Dodge Sebrango.
