I checked and TSN is showing Canadian games and 1 Semi and either bronze or gold match from the looks of it. I'm hoping when it starts that hokejka keeps showing all Czech games but with more than 1 camera and maybe a commentator. Today's viewing is one camera in the stands with no commentary.
Looks like no NHL Net, no viewing TSN legally outside of Canada. So Czech stream is our best hope? Last year Russian federation had all their games on YT.
 
I'm sure it's been asked, but does anyone know where to watch games? Are there Reddit streams?
 
Slovakia official lineup for tournament has been announced finally.

G: Latkoczy, Opatovsky, Nemec

D: Knazko, Fatul, Stacha, S. Nemec, Ketner, putala, jombik, Groch

F: Chromiak, Sramaty, Petras, Kolenic, Kaslik, Rehak, Lasak, Geci, L. Nemec, Faith, Back, Lipiansky, myklukha, mastic.

Talented 2004 born defense man Simon Nemec makes the team, making him the youngest player in the tournament by a decent margin.
Players to watch: Geci, Myklukha, Chromiak, Knazko

Juraj Slafkovsky was also considered for the team but it was ultimately decided that he would be better off getting more ice time with younger team.
Several 02 players were quite unimpressive in the exhibition games and as such they were cut in favour of players who shined for the u17 team

Another trend in Czech hockey... we don't seem to produce elite skaters. 'Slow Foot Speed' seems to keep coming up on our prospects. Alternatively, you never read that about Finnish or Swedish Prospects. I imagine it's something you could fix by hiring the right people.

Chytil and Necas are great skaters.

My goodness Canada - Finland and man Im thrilled to watch Lambert and Räty. Those 2 are gonna be fun to watch even if they are underage guys and I dont put too much pressures on them going into this game particularly, but still.

Yeah, fun to watch for sure. But Räty is not an underager.

Hopefully there's a way to watch this in Finland, somehow...

Streams.. cuz TSN broadcasts..

Yh late -02 birthday so kinda last time in this tourney, but one culd make a case hes younger than many players here cuz of his birthday and he's not eligible untill 2021 NHL draft but yh anyway main age group in this tourney is that abovementioned -02.

Hopefully he can be an impact player, given of early status being granted first overall in his draft already.

So Rochette is playing for Canada and not for Switzerland. Does it mean that he'll be likely representing Canada in the future as well?
 
I have registered on the site but can´t find a stream for Fin-Can. I want to see what that 2nd line of Finland can do ;)
