World Juniors Official what's ups thread
World juniors is starting today. Czeck vs Russia right now.
Very surprised there is very few people watching this game.
Stands are very empty. Game is in Buffalo.
Czecks look strong.

Russia is weak this year. They will be hard pressed to get any medal this year.
Fairly entertaining game so far.

Do you have a tsn account? Channel 236. Shaw has a streaming app.

Mericans are looking awfully strong....Canada has to tighten up on the penalties...there were some dumb ones tonight....liked their intensity when they swarmed.

How the hell is that not a penalty? Hit the guy 10ft from the boards when he doesn’t have the puck?
American ref.....

Anyone else notice that attendance is awful? Not just for the Canada games but all of them.

Good game. They are working out a few kinks but still not bad.

They are learning from their mistakes so far....great game with only a few breakdowns. Score could have been wayyyy higher.

Need to be tested now....remember this is a team full of potential brain farts...coaching staff gotta stay on top of them.

I doubt it will get too much better. Weather sucks, very cold and lots of snow. Too bad. Outdoor game ticket sales have been good though.
I think the world junior tournament overall may be losing a bit of its momentum.

That’s interesting as there is more parity than ever before. You would think that would draw more viewership.

If they wanted attendance then all games would be in Canada. Buffalo seems the worse so far. Worse than Europe. Or could just be perception.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List..._by_attendance
Sweden had good attendance.
Could be ticket pricing.

I thought of that so I looked up ticket prices. Ranged from $35-110 per game or a 12 game pack was $800. I’m not sure how that compares to other years though.
