Good on Lipkin for putting up points to start his rookie year as a pro.
I didn't expect his name to sit above Doan and Raty on this list.

 

[TheLegend]

This has been expected…..

Congratulations to Cole Beaudoin on making it to Canada's WJC camp. He's such a workhorse that I expect he'll make the cut.

Rough news...

 

[Arizonatah Coyetis]

Yeah, that's a bummer alright. Safe to assume this is why he wasn't invited to WJC camp?

 

[FourQuarters]

It isn't something happened during the game… I watched Rockets' games and he didn't look like he needed hip surgery, didn't get big hit. I don't know where the injury is from…

My gut says Iginla was putting the procedure off until after the WJC. He was playing at a high level with the hip problem so not a valid reason for Canada to snub him. They might have not even known about it.

 

[Heldig]

Don't know details obviously but hip surgery at 18 years old is a major red flag.

@Czechboy this forum is probably a more welcoming spot to discuss Coyotes draft picks.

Got some inside info that iginla wasn't even practicing for over a month, would just play the games

If he was hoping to make Team Canada (implied by the timing of his surgery) he wouldn't have had a chance if they knew of his pain management.

Why is Kazakhstan in the tournament. I thought there were IIHF tiers.

Marginal teams like Kazakhstan, Norway and Austria are always bumping up and down between tiers.

Getting this guy in the 6th round is another feather in our scouting teams cap. Giant C's that can score at this level don't grow on trees.
I'm beyond excited to see the Yutes evolve into a highly skilled bunch of giant brutes.

Beaudoin moved to the top line for Team Canada's game today vs Germany. Team seeking a net driver.

Is now 1st in points at the World Juniors.
3 games 4 goals 3 assists 7 points and +7 Includes a shorty.

The guy is 6' 4" and 200 pounds. Plays C. Is on the PP and PK units on Team Czech.

And no Russia or Belarus means more spots to fill.

 

[Dirty Old Man]

Hm. Makes me wonder if the IIHF will do to Russia similar to what UEFA is doing in international competitions, basically relegating their clubs every year they're excluded (5 years ago Russia was as high as 6th out of about 55 countries in UEFA, right now they're 30th)
