I would say I am 'disappointed' in his outing this WJC, but I don't think this changes how I feel about him as a prospect, or what I think his ceiling is. Will be interesting to see how he responds in Providence. Hopefully that team makes a good playoff run, and we can see him in another pressure situation this season.

I agree, he didn't lose them any games. He let in a few weak goals, but probably stopped an equal amount that he shouldn't have. He's been getting a pretty rough ride over at HF this tournament, but I think a lot of the posters there are ignoring how much weaker a team this year's group is.
Like Freeway said, it will be interesting to see how he finishes out his season from here. It should give us some indication on how he'll respond to adversity later on.
