What exactly has happened to Canadian goaltending the past decade?  

Never in history have we been this week on the backend.  

Seems like Russia and Sweden have all the bonafide starters in the NHL.  Keumpher, Fleury, Blackwood, Hart, Binnington, Price.. not much after that.  

Yup, not good. We got Fleury and Price but age is catching up. As of now I don’t think we got a top 10 goalie in the league. Fleury, maybe?

 

Russia - Igor, Vasi, Sorokin

Sweden - Markstrom

USA - Demko, Oettinger, Hellybuck, Campbell

Finland - Saros

Denmark - Andersen

 

Miss those Luongo and Brodeur days.

I believe we play Finland if USA win their game.

It should be a crossover with the other group but I get why it's not in regular WJC where you get unbalanced groups based on last year.

 

Does that mean USA gets first on goal difference or am I totally out to lunch?

 

Tried to look it up but it was unambiguous.

It depends on their game later today against Czechia. If it's a blowout, then they get the advantage in goal difference and I think then we would play Sweden.
