World Junior Championship

Recommended Posts

Well, the World Junior Championships are coming up soon and although we may cheer for our different countries, I am sure that we will all be cheering for our Habs prospects.

Here is the website for any and all info regarding the WJC. http://www.hockeycanada.ca/en-ca/Team-Canada/Men/Junior/2015

So far only Zachary Fucale has been invited to Canada's team. As more info becomes available as to which Habs prospects are invited to their respective teams, they can be posted here.

Also, when the games are on, perhaps we can treat this thread as "Scoreboard Watching"

There will be an exhibition tournament beginning on Fri. Dec. 19th at various venues, with TSN TV doing the Canadian Team broadcasts.

The real tournament gets underway on Fri. Dec. 26th, with venues in both the Bell Center (13 games) and the ACC (19 games). TSN will broadcast all games.

This is the first time I start a new thread, hope that's okay.

I heard Fucale was invited to Canada's camp (not a surprise I don't think). I thought a thread like this where we can discuss other players in our system being invited to camp, and how they play during the tournament could be fun. So please keep us all posted on players in our system playing for other nations as well.

I don't think there were any other players from our system invited to play for Canada. Fucale is one of two Goalies, so we know he's a lock to make the team. He's competing against Eric Comrie for the starting Job.

I started the same thread in the Around The League forum, 5 mins. before you did :lol::lol:

Great minds think alike. :D

We traded Collberg last year for Vanek.
