World Junior Championship Open Thread

Talk WJC Hockey with the folks at S7S

It’s that time of year: the World Junior Championships kick off on Christmas Day, as per tradition. This year Canada doesn’t get its tournament underway until Saturday the 26th, but there is still a great slate of games to feast on today, with Switzerland taking on Slovakia, the Sens’ own Tim Stuetzle will lead Germany against Roby Jarventie and Finland, while Jake Sanderson and Tyler Kleven hope to carry the USA to victory vs. Russia.

Here’s the full schedule of games, courtesy of TSN.

Also, be sure to check our previews of which draft eligible players to watch in Group A and Group B.

So sit back, grab the food/beverage of your choice and let’s watch some world juniors!
