Chris Peters on players he thought stood out at the WJSS

Cole Reschny, C, Canada (CGY)
There were very, very few bright spots for Canada, but I thought Reschny was among the most consistent players. His hands, his release and his willingness to get inside and make some plays really helps his cause in what will be a very tense battle for roster spots. He was put in a lot of good spots, centering the top line after the returnees left and playing on the power play. He routinely showed the work ethic and the skill that could significantly help his chances if he has to play more of a depth role. I can’t say for sure how good his chances are, but he certainly didn’t hurt himself this week.

Cullen Potter, C/W, USA (CGY)
Potter’s speed really pops in an event like this where we see the pace of play and the way a superior skater can dictate things at an event like this. He put pressure on defenders with his speed, took a lot of pucks wide effectively and made himself more of a zone-entry weapon. He scored two goals, including one in the comeback bid against Canada and was spotlighted by head coach Bob Motzko as a player that was noticeable in the event.
