2017/18 World Junior Championship U20

[Unknown Caller]

Zetterlund made the final roster. Not surprising given the fact that he has been on the second power play unit. He was also one of Pronman’s underrated players to watch for the tournament.

 

[Blackjack]

So that gives us 7. More than anyone else in the league and Bratt and Hischier obviously would have made their teams. Reilly Walsh was probably good enough to make USA too, just too many puck moving defensemen kept him out.

Holy shit.

Zaitsev have been confirmed as Team Russia captain, Maltsev will be one of the alternates.

Thanks Caser.

Rykov, Maltsev and Zaitsev is a pretty good combination of prospects in Russia. I’m surprised how much credibility Maltsev has. Maybe there’s more there than I thought. Excited to see what he can do offensively.

#blessed

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

and remember, that doesn't even count Hischier or Bratt who would certainly be there if they werent with NJ

Rykov was also there last year and was a PPG player IIRC

 

[Emperoreddy]

I thought we had the most prospects but needed confirmation

 

[Emperoreddy]

Stand out tournament for Jesper B is my prediction, though I can easily see Anderson or even McLeod end up as the best Devil in the tourney.

 

[Comparison Ford]

I truly hope mcleod breaks out this tourney.

I'm right here with you on this one I think Boqvists is eager to show what he can do at this level. He's playing so well in the SHL after coming back and all reports on him is that he oozes skill, speed and he's playmaking is phenomenal. He playing top6 and the power play so the chance is right in front of him. He's on top of that extremely fresh and highly motivated. A good start were Sweden is the dominating team in the group with a lot of weaker teams.

Mcloed could be playing in the exact role in team canada as he could get in the next season as a devil. Is he the top PK guy?

[Devil X]

Anyone know if you can watch this anywhere in the US or online (legally)?

With so many prospects I may try and catch more games then normal.

 

[Ripshot 43]

It’s all on nhl network if anyone is interested. The US doesn’t play till 8 tonight. I love that almost every game has a Devils prospect to watch.

I don't know if it's been said yet, but we have more players than any other NHL team at the tournament this year. 2018 World Junior Roster Breakdown by NHL Team

Now my wife is going to ask why so much hockey is sitting on our DVR.... THANKS Ill blame you!

 

[Devils Dominion]

Games today at 12, 4, 8.

NHL Network

 

[NJDevils17]

Excited to get a look at Maltseva and Zaitsev. Hard to watch these guys usually so it’ll be cool to see them and Rykov was a standout last year so it will definitely be neat.

The Sweden game at 2 isn't on TV in Canada either, which is strange since they are showing almost every game of this tournament on TSN.

This gave me a laugh. I did the same thing

 

[Darkauron]

Assist for Zaitsev and Maltsev

 

[zharkenby]

Believe Maltsev and Zaitsev just picked up assists. Maltsev won the draw
