Pretty unimpressed by Rossi in both games, not skilled enough or quick enough to really threaten right now. No way he's NHL ready.

Kaliyev was originally on the top line because he and Turcotte have some experience together, as Kings prospects, and I think that he stayed there because Turcotte and Zegras were gelling. As for why the lines were mixed up after it became 10-0, I think that the coach just wanted to test out other combinations and get the players comfortable with more than just their regular linemates (because, after all, an injury might necessitate shuffling at some point).
Which is what the coach should do. But I don't see a line with Kaliyev and Caufield doing anything. That was the time to see what Caufield and other players could do with Zegras.

I hope so. I’m a goalie as well so I’m biased, but Wraneschitz played his heart out. If nothing else comes from this tournament perhaps he’ll have an award to show his kids one day.

Should have pulled him after the 3rd or 4th goal against. Why keep him in there if he's your clear nr.1? Instead they wait until he's injured and can barely move anymore.
