Confirmed with Link: Coyotes @ the WJC - Barrett Hayton makes team Canada

[Heldig]

He has 3 goals in 3 games. Hope we don't regret trading him.

I did not like that he was traded. He is a definite NHLer. Hinostroza has more offensive upside I suppose.

6’5” RW/C though. I still believe this team needs size. Regardless he’s still 3 years away.

Exactly. We needed Hino NOW for our playoff run.

Both are bottom 6 players. Just one is already here. I get Chayka’s train of thought on this trade; especially given that they also received Osterle. I just spent a week watching Entwhistle at the Memorial Cup so wasn’t happy to see him moved.

 

[lanky]

I've loved Entwistle's effort level since he lead Canada in U18 scoring before his draft. As I've followed him since then I've realized that his puck skill just isn't enough to allow him to be a difference maker in the NHL. He's in his d+2 season and he's not quite a pt/gm. He might follow a career trajectory of Martinook for example. I hope the best for him but I'm happy Vinnistroza is a Coyote.

Jenik named Czech player of the game after watching the previous two from the stands.

Ty Smith looks like Christoph Waltz minus 40 years.

Hayton took a butt end to the jaw. Played through it but may be injured.

Westerlund had a goal and an assist in Swedens OT win against USA

Very good transition player.

That's big production for a guy with one point on the season. I hope it sparks a fire.

 

[SniperHF]

with one point on the season.

Looks like he's been playing in the top league full time this year? Maybe just having a tough transition with steeply increased competition.
He'd probably be better off in a pro league yet still a somewhat development focused one like the AHL.
When OEL played in Sweden he didn't even play in the SHL.

Second assists are tossed around like candy in North America. Not as common overseas.

Thanks to HF Coyotes I now have several places to kill some time between games

Have fun. I loved my time in that city.

Go fishing in Sooke or the island if you have the chance, yes there probably is still fishing going on at this time.

A bit of a jaunt to cross the strait to the island but If you are going to Sooke you have to eat at the Sooke Harbour House. Pioneers of "west coast cuisine" and farm to table dining.

Some of the games are on the island aren't they?

 

[Heldig]

Yes. None of the playoff games though.

 

[Alberta Yote]

I think 2 of the quarter finals are still in Victoria but we only have tickets to the Vancouver games. Between all of those breweries and either 8 or 9 games in three days we likely won’t be doing much travelling or fishing. Not this trip anyway.

 

[MIGs Dog]

WOW! Huge upsets. Canada and Sweden both eliminated.

 

[Alberta Yote]

Huge piss off. Waste of money. Beer it is.

 

[Plub]

I'm not seeing Kakko as Hughes' equal. Kakko is great, but Hughes is something else.

 

[Muppet]

I see people scrambling to blame everyone and everything for Canada's failure. Hayton getting some blame, like people were expecting him to be an offensive powerhouse

 

[Lawson of Anarchy]

Used up all offensive output on Denmark
