WJC - 2026

[Wilbur]

Toss up game Friday.  They should win, but won't be surprised in the least bit if they lose to Finland.

Goaltending....meh....D zone structure is abysmal, and the forward groupings make zero sense to me.  Zellers getting a regular shift and he's probably in the running for a top player award for team USA as hes +6 at the moment on a team that gives up goals like I give away shots on the golf course.

Finland is much better than the States right now, especially in net & with Plante out.

[The Sicatoka]

USA will struggle.

When you give up as many power play goals against Sweden and aren’t utilizing Emery that much, it is no wonder why they can’t keep the puck out of their net. U.S. goalies can’t stop the puck if they can’t see it, but also if you are giving up point blank shots to most of these guys, they have the ability to hit the corners more times than not. They all can snipe.

They would let Heil get double screened.

It’s Swedens to lose in my opinion 

[Sioux_Hab-it]

Sweden has looked like the team to beat before and have often gone undefeated during many past tournaments, both the boy's and men's teams, and then they don't show up for the playoffs.

So with Plante out again, does Bozo Bob keep Will on the 4th line, or does he move him to the 13th forward??

Bob planning to double shift Mooney to cut down on Zellers ice time.

Pante could be done for the rest of the WJC.

If team USA takes any bench minors, I think Will should serve the penalties.

Probably bench him so he doesn’t keep making Bob look clueless.
