Of course the US has to be in Pool B in Victoria. Looks like I'll be watching Chmelevski's games on PVR-delay.

But at least I get to watch Denmark get throttled 3 times without the aged-out Blichfeld and True (and basically everyone else significant from their last couple years. That totally makes up for it!

Kinda disappointing Kotkov didnt get a team Russia invite.

It has been reported that Chekhovich is likely out, as he sustained a back injury in training,

Has it actually been confirmed that Chekhovich is out or is it speculation at this point?

He is still with the team and they try to rehab him asap with physiotherapy and stuff, but Chekhovich himself didn't sound too hopeful in that interview.

Fan-****ing-tastic.

Maybe I should see if I can trade my round robin tickets for ones in Victoria and a hotel so I can watch Chmelevski

Ah, bummer.

 

[Caser]

Chekhovich is officially out.

 

[Harbessix]

Chekhovich is officially out.

This blows, he was the main reason I wanted to watch the tournament this year. Hopefully Chmelevski doesn’t disappoint

 

[Lebanezer]

Chekhovich is officially out.

f***

 

[rangerssharks414]

That sucks about Chekhovich.

For those who know more about prospects than me (probably everyone), who are the favorites? I would guess that Canada, Finland and USA are the favorites, but I don't know for sure.

Chmelevski is SICK. (Not literally)

Why would you even joke about that?

"Sick"
1). Crazy, Cool, insane.
I was referring to his highly above average skill level in ice hockey. The move he made in that breakaway clip was "sick", thus making Chmelevski himself an "ill" hockey prospect.

You knew what you were doing. You still know.

So, the Sharks have ONE prospect in the tournament (plus former prospect Josh Norris).

No undivided rooting interest.
