According to the IIHF World Juniors website, Canada is the top seed and USA is the second seed. They both have records of 4-0. How are the seeds determined?
Thanks. So how do rosters work? If you were under 20 back in December, but turned 20 since, are you an eligible player or not? Also, do any of the results that happened last winter count towards the August tournament, or is everything from scratch?
Haven't been following the developments of this story, so please bear with me if I sound like a buffoon. So the tournament played this August will count as the 2022 WJC, and then the 2023 WJC will be held in late Dec. / early Jan. like normal?

Benchwarmers
Get your Fighting Hawks football fix this week on Benchwarmers. Midco's Brian Shawn breaks it down with Tom Miller from the Grand Forks Herald and color commentator Ryan Kasowski PLUS UND volleyball with head coach Jesse Tupac & women's soccer with head coach Chris Logan..
I am happy to see that majority of home games are on Thursday/Saturday. I loved that schedule during the Big Sky years, and I think it will foster some love and familiarity with fans who've been checked out since Pryor/Tiffin effed us. A couple of games scheduled on a Tuesday night is just fine, too. The first couple Summit League schedules were a HUGE drawback in attending games, IMO.
Set 2 was plagued by some mistakes and sloppy play, but UND prevailed 25-23. #4 Norris had the best spike of the set, though had errors too. #6 Sewell had the best serves, though she had an error her next time up. Good fight in the squad; they’re chasing balls all over.
At the game vs. MSUM. UND wins first set 25-14(?). (Not sure of the score because the scorekeeper reset to 0 so quickly). I’ll write more on the actual play after full match assessment.
That tells me that Tupac believes he has a starting setter for next season.
On the surface, this part is concerning. Perhaps he's on top of their fundamentals and things are coming along. Otherwise, he would have had to address this.
Totally agree. He gave an example of Qpac playing SCSU in the Eastern. I told him that that's only 2 teams fan bases - there's still 6 more teams. Plus better venues in better cities. And twice as much hockey.
