[FinPanda]

Because of our 2001's this tournament got a lot more interesting..

 

[VictorLustig]

Apparently Frölunda wants Rasmus Dahlin play SHL hockey instead. Haven't heard anything about Adam Boqvist, but he's been injured for a while so I'm guessing he will miss the tournament as well. There is depth in this age group but losing our two best players will hurt our chances.

 

[ChicagoBullsFan]

Why Aleks Haatanen didn't make Finland's Wolrd Hockey Challenge team.
Is he injured or something else.

Simply not good enough. 5 points in 10 games in BSM..

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Confirmed that Rasmus Dahlin wont play..

Veleno's withdrawn because of injury

[ijuka]

I have just about zero interest in the Finnish 00 draft class, but with the addition of Leevi Aaltonen I'll definitely be watching.

Boqvist is still on the roster though.

 

[rickardr]

Boqvist is still on the roster though.

Yes, he is up and running.

Important for the powerplay! My guess is they have Boqvist as point on the first unit and Sandin on the 2nd one.

Any word on streaming? Fasthockey showing all games for free?

Yes.

It looks like today is an exhibition games day, and Russia - Canada-White game will start in an hour.

 

[Gigantor The Goalie]

Excited to see Olivier Rodrigue in this tournament. He's the best Canadian goalie at this tournament and could be the best goalie in the entire tournament.

 

[JJTT]

Any live scored for the exhibition games? Finland-Czechs started a while ago too.

Nvm looks like the games are streamed, awful quality though https://www.hockeycanada.ca/en-ca/National-Championships/Men/World-U17/2016

Finland leading 1-0 in the 3rd.

 

[Joe Zanussi]

Russia just won, 4-3

 

[JJTT]

Finland won 3-0. Goals by Nordgren, Moilanen and Hirvonen(empty net)

 

[Juxtaposer]

I'm excited to see Team US and Merkley/Groulx.

 

[Eugene85]

Which Canada is the strongest one and which is the weakest one?
