Not as lopsided as the previous game, but good win for Canada. Should be interesting how they do against Finland and you would think they will continue to run with Garand.

It would have been a blow out but the Czech goalie stood on his head. Props to him.

Undoubtedly. Suchanek was undrafted this year, maybe after seeing his performance in these World Juniors, it may be worth for an NHL team to pick him up in the later rounds next year.

Suchanek is another MDP in the sense that he's an 'undersized' (by current NHL standards) goalie who could be described as having an athletic,  albeit 'reactionary' style.  These types don't get a lot of attention by scouts as they see these traits as non-transferable to the next level.   That's why players like Young from PG will get noticed and Suchanek won't - because guys like Clarke see a lot of 'transferable' skills in Young and of course he has the frame scouts love in prospects.

Yup.  Look how high Cossa (6’7) was drafted, and he literally stinks.
