Coach Ivan Fenes may not have the depth required to crack the podium in Edmonton, but nobody should take the talented Slovaks for granted in a quarter-final matchup either. Elite goalie Jesper Wallstedt gives them a chance to beat any opponent and towering defenceman Simon Edvinsson takes charge at both ends. First-round picks Brad Lambert and Joakim Kemell have speed to burn and could rank among the tournament scoring leaders. At the 2021 World Juniors, goalie Sebastian Wraneschitz made 61 saves in a 4-0 loss to Sweden. Similar netminding brilliance is a must here if the Austrians are to avoid a last-place finish.

'The fact that there are still Team Canada tickets available, that tells you the demand is much lower than it usually is for this kind of event.'

Mason said the timing of the games could be why interest is so low. I don’t think we’re willing to give up those plans to watch hockey.” Many people could also be waiting for a former judge on the Supreme Court of Canada to begin independently reviewing Hockey Canada’s governance amid calls for a change of leadership. Around 1,500 tickets are still available for purchase on Ticketmaster to the first game between Czech Republic and Slovakia on Tuesday. About 1,300 tickets are available for the next day when Canada takes on Latvia. About 1,500 seats for the final game are also available with hundreds of other tickets to watch the 11-day tournament. Slovakia, for example, those games will be sold out as well because in order to get the tickets to watch Canada play, you have to buy a package that includes some of the other games,” he said on Friday. Odd summer timing and an ongoing sexual assault scandal at Hockey Canada could be the reason thousands of tickets to the World Junior Hockey Championship are still available on the eve of the tournament, says an Edmonton professor.

For the first time in a few years, the Vancouver Canucks will be sending three prospects to the World Junior Championship.

Matthew is a must-read for Canucks fans and fans of the NHL Draft and its prospects. Matthew Zator is a THW freelance writer, media editor, and scout who lives and breathes Vancouver Canucks hockey, the NHL Draft, and prospects in general. The Canucks’ prospect pool is unfortunately one of the weakest in the NHL right now. However, after a 2021-22 season that saw him put up a career-high two goals and 17 points in 40 games along with an outstanding plus-31 rating with the Michigan Wolverines, the brass decided to add him to the lineup that was announced on Sunday. Finally, there’s Finnish blueliner Joni Jurmo. While he was drafted in the same year as Truscott, it seems like he’s been in the Canucks’ system a lot longer than a couple of years. As mentioned before, the Canucks did not have anyone representing them at the original event in December, as he was one of the final cuts.
