Great news!
Possibly better for development than the AHL playoffs. Makes the one-game signing make more sense to me.

Pretty cool that we can see some more of him in higher competition. Do players get paid for going to the WC?

Gaudreau to play in the World Championships
Johnny Johnny
He'll probably have to work his way into the lineup, but good to see

That's great news. I think he'll light it up on that big ice.

As a Flames' fan, this is going to be a much more interesting tourney this year (though I always enjoy them anyways - just so much more so with Gaudreau, Monahan, Backlund and Hudler).

Not really surprising, he has more goals-per-game than any other American in the NHL this year.

Hopefully his play will silence the critics. First Monahan, now this......and it's a long weekend!

I'm happy to see him make the team, but the fact he has more GPG than any American in the NHL is an odd point to mention.

He's America's version of Ovechkin except with a higher goals-per-game.

Obviously in jest.
Grats to the kid! He's going to make waves. Glad he gets to keep playing, and especially against older NHL'ers. The matchup of Monahan vs Gaudreau is going to be an exciting one.

Horrible news!!!! With his prorated goal pace total of 82 on team US, Canada is doomed!

Smart move by Johnny signing with Flames.
Now world championship selection.
I'm sure he is saying - 'thank you Burke'.
Suddenly world championship will be high on the to watch list.
