Prospect Info: Wings at the WJC

[DTR]

USA forfeits, now Russia forfeits. We might be looking at a cancelled tournament.

It sounds like the tournament will officially be canceled tonight.

[Lil Bert]

Unbelievable.
There should be protests by the players and coaches.
I guarantee you that nobody is experiencing symptoms.

 

[lhsgolf19]

So all of that crap about Cossa was for nothing lol

 

[lilidk]

It's the worst of tournament ever. Some people needs to get fired for that kind of organization of tournaments.

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

They need to hold it in Texas like they did the WJC18's.

Bring it here! COVID doesn't exist in this state.

 

[ShanahanMan]

Unbelievable.
There should be protests by the players and coaches.
I guarantee you that nobody is experiencing symptoms.

So they should be play while positive contagious?

 

[lhsgolf19]

We are still World Champs... Suck it Canada lol

 

[Henkka]

Unbelievable.

Yeah.

f***ing ridiculous.

 

[SoupNazi]

So they should be play while positive contagious?

Some people seem to think so. I think that's a really bad idea.

 

[jaster]

Sebrango remind anybody else of Brad Stuart. I've been really impressed by him at this tourney. Starting to make me think he's got middle pairing upside.

I've always liked Sebrango, but until fairly recently I felt his upside was that of a 3rd pair guy. And while I think that's still the most likely outcome, I agree, now I think his ceiling is that of a middle-pair guy if everything clicks.

 

[Hen Kolland]

Just give Edvinsson a parachute and route the plain over Detroit. We have a use for him

 

[wingerdinger]

So they should be play while positive contagious?

has there ever been a case of on ice transmission?

I know the hasnt been any case of player to player transmission in the nfl.

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

Unbelievable.

Lil bert. How ironic lol.

 

[SCD]

I believe this tournament would have continued if held in the States or Europe.

 

[PavelDatsyuk13DET]

So they should be play while positive contagious?

Absolutely they should. Young adults are the least likely to be affected by this and the NHL as well as other sports leagues really need to move forward on letting players play who are asymptomatic. The omicron symptoms resemble the common cold.

 

[HoweFan]

We are still World Champs... Suck it Canada lol

Nah. Austria kicked your ass. They are the champs

 

[HoweFan]

So all of that crap about Cossa was for nothing lol

Yep. He was gonna start the next game. Heard it from a friend of a friend

 

[Rzombo4 prez]

Some people seem to think so. I think that's a really bad idea.

It is amazing that this concept is still lost on people

 

[Rzombo4 prez]

It sounds as if they didn't even try to bubble the participants. Given that, it is hard to be shocked by this result.

 

[lilidk]

I believe this tournament would have continued if held in the States or Europe.

Move south the boarder and never again in Canada

 

[ChadS]

It sounds as if they didn't even try to bubble the participants. Given that, it is hard to be shocked by this result.

Yeah it definitely sounds like that, crazy considering how strict the IIHF guidelines appear to have been. Last year was fine when they took it serious.

Up to 5 officials positive also according to TSN.

I guarantee you that nobody is experiencing symptoms.

I commend your confidence for guaranteeing such a guess.

 

[Henkka]

I believe this tournament would have continued if held in the States or Europe.

Yeah...

I wonder why Canada isn't cancelling hockey games about yearly 6800 deaths thanks to influenza.

 

[Henkka]

Yep. He was gonna start the next game. Heard it from a friend of a friend

I was kinf of 100% sure, that Cossa is gonna be the starter next year...


... then noticed he is born November 2002 and is 1 month too old at next games.

 

[Zetterberg4Captain]

Move south the boarder and never again in Canada

Great..poor attendance and no media attention... brilliant
