McAvoy out; everyone else is good to go. I think?

It sounds like the only injury scratch for tomorrow is McAvoy who apparently has a crazy infection in his shoulder. The American forwards should all be starting.

Has anyone heard if Canada is expecting an injury scratch that wasn't previously noted? I feel like they are suiting everyone up who they came into the tourney with.

Hope McAvoy recovers properly. Infections are no joke and it sounds like that joint took a lot of damage.

US Development Program

(This is mostly a community traction post because Lemmy needs more of it.)

US dev seems to be paying off on the top level. We have already seen the more recent juniors results the last handful of years but now it is starting to show beyond that.

I know the majority of this US roster comes from that program and I feel like last night that was visually apparent. It's starting to feel like a proper Canadian / American hockey rivalry has taken shape which should mean the next decade or so of international events should be top notch from that perspective.

On a semi related note; RIP to the Kids' 26 game win streak record wearing the Canadian sweater. Absolutely a legendary stat. His first assist against Sweden was crazy greasy. (Edit)
