I just hope they pronounce it Yagger and Jagger like Mick. Savoie is someone I could see the moving this summer. Interesting that Slovakia did not start their #1 tendy in the US game. That dude has bailed that team out and would have made a significant difference in the game. Might not have won, but I bet the US would not have been buzzing as much as they were. Quote

PerreaultForever Posted December 31, 2023 Report Posted December 31, 2023 Czechia isn't very good, but Kulich is definitely their best player. 1 Quote

US didn't start their #1 either. Pretty sure Slovakia wouldn't have seen as many chances either if the kid from Michigan State were between the pipes. Wonder if both coaches agreed ahead of time to roll with the backups in that preliminary round matchup knowing that they both would likely be 1 and 2 coming out of the bracket? And agree that Savoie is a very possible trade piece when real trades actually start happening. 1 Quote

He wasn't playing earlier in the tournament because of illness. Quote

RochesterExpat Posted January 2 Report Posted January 2 Kind of a funny observation, but Kulich passes the puck too hard for his teammates. Quote
Crusader1969 Posted January 2 Report Posted January 2 bonk would fit in with our defence. sucks for Savoie and Canada but the legend of Kulich will continue Quote
RochesterExpat Posted January 2 Report Posted January 2 The Canadians must have set some kind of record for missing the net. 1 Quote

To me the first overall pick in 24 will not make the kind of impact that Bedard is making. Bedard was by far the best player last year in the WJC. Quote
Flashsabre Posted January 2 Report Posted January 2 2-0 Swedes. Wahlberg with another screen for a PP goal in front. I would not move Östlund, WAHLBERG or Benson. The 3 of them play 200 foot games and Wahlberg has and uses the size they need up front. Savoie, Rosen or even Kulich if a difference making core piece player was available I would consider moving. 2 Quote
PerreaultForever Posted January 2 Report Posted January 2 I only saw the 12 minute highlight package but in that Savoie's line seemed to be in it a lot as did Kulich's. No finish on Canada's end though. Geekie looks like an NHLer. I know there's a knock on his skating, but I think he will be better than his brother. Quote
PerreaultForever Posted January 2 Report Posted January 2 Swedes looked like Buffalo on the Swiss goal. Just standing around with no net front coverage. Easy goal. 1 Quote

Geekie has improved his skating since his draft. Coyotes are building an NBA team. 1 Quote
LGR4GM Posted January 2 Author Report Posted January 2 "I thought the pair of Jonathan Lekkerimäki (VAN) and Noah Östlund (BUF) were excellent again for Sweden, too. They’ve been Sweden’s most dangerous duo up front and created a ton of looks on Tuesday. Lekkerimäki scored Sweden’s second goal and assisted on the winner to push him to seven points in five games. Östlund also chipped in on the winner and had the puck a lot (he too is up to seven points). His skating and craftiness have really jumped out here." — Scott Wheeler https://theathletic.com/5174963/2024/01/02/world-junior-championship-day-7-takeaways-canada-eliminated?source=user-shared-article 1 2 Quote
Ctaeth Posted January 3 Report Posted January 3 How many points did savoie end with? I feel like it wasn't a lot Quote
