I'm not putting money on it, but I'm not ruling him out. The WJC also isn't the first time he's shown to be a good goalie.
I would absolutely rule him out.

He would be a 20-year-old rookie goaltender starting his professional career in the NHL. How often does that happen? It is one thing for forwards and even occasional defenseman to make the jump straight from Juniour to the NHL, but the number of goalies who have successfully managed the transition in the past 15 years can be counted on one hand.

This isn't happening.
