Very curious to see what Stankoven can do. Really liked watching him in Kamloops.

Canadians are 7.5 goal favorites.

Oh, could be trouble in the USA camp. A forfeit loss to the Swiss could have huge implications for the medal rounds.

What, no zamboni driver in Red Deer available as EBUG? Throw some 48-year old in there for them!

Forfeit is official
I get it but a team getting gifted a win in my view undermines the integrity of the tourney
No idea what else they could do

World Juniors probably won’t make it to the weekend. Not surprised

How can you only miss one game for Covid reasons. They need a plan here fast or this entire tournament is in jeopardy.

The USA plays tomorrow against Sweden and Friday against Russia. I don't see any way the US keeps playing, let alone makes it to the medal rounds if they have to forfeit.

Are they allowed to bring in the “B” team to replace players who test positive?

guessing two players tested positive yesterday, and confirmed today; many more players tested positive today and waiting for confirmation. If more confirmed, then USA will pretty much be out of the tournament
