How's it looking there at the rink?
Sold out?
Just putting the game on TSN now, have fun and enjoy yourself.
Hey there, if it wasn`t sold out it was bloody close. Fun to be within the atmosphere of the World Juniors, I`ve been to a handful of them over the years and always have a blast. Looks as though the support is alive and well in Victoria and although Canada playing in Vancouver for the regular tournament, it was great seeing them last night.
Kind of a predictably sloppy effort from TC vs a much weaker opponent. Studnicka played well if unspectacular, Comtois (I think he`s a Ducks prospect?) was terrific, Studsy if I may did score a goal, didn`t do anything amazing but was steady and much quicker than I imagined. If I had an "issue" and this is really nitpicking here, he did miss one defensive assignment which led to a shot by the Swiss but other than that, very sound 200 ft game.
Didn`t like Dipietro in net, now, to be fair, he didn`t face many shots but his rebound control was....uncontrolled and it looked like he fell asleep a few times. TC D-men were ok. They will need to be far more focused once the puck officially drops.
Slovakia here tomorrow night, should be fun
