They also chose Red Deer for the host city which might literally be the most right-wing city in all of Canada.

The other guests at the hotel weren't giving a gently caress about COVID restrictions

Because they thought covid would be over and didn't bother booking an entire hotel. I don't know if there is a hotel big enough to hold all the teams + staff + arena dudes.

The biggest hotel here is the Cambridge and most of those rooms are single king beds.

e: the cambridge is sold out through Jan 2, so that's probably where they were staying.

They won the Channel One Cup too because Russia pulled their goalie in overtime, and then tripped a Finnish player on a break-away resulting in a goal being awarded.

Everything's coming up Finland!

Cancellation aside, I'm feeling all right about Detroit's crop of prospects:

Simon Edvinsson: 3 points in 2 games, looked like an absolute monster against kids
Theodor Niederbach: goals in both games!
Donovan Sebrango: also scored!
Eemil Viro, Carter Mazur, Red Savage, Jan Bednar: still alive!
Sebastian Cossa: 0 goals allowed!

This is what happens when you disrespect Cam Neely

if it's the Cambridge hotel (used to be the Sheraton in my day), the Billy Bob's Saloon at the north end of the building has a wet t-shirt night on Wednesdays.. Alot of degenerates visit that property on a fairly regular basis.

I will laugh forever if Billy Bob's was the downfall of the world Juniors. That bar is one of the scummiest I have ever been to and I like dive bars. Red deer and Alberta distilled.

Yeah it's pretty dead, at least in this early game. Also nice to see almost zero ads (except for TV ads), since all the sponsors pulled out.
