After a disappointing second day of the 2022 World Juniors for our Minnesota Wild prospects — featuring a disconnected Canadian defense featuring Carson Lambos and just no points for the 2022 first-rounder Liam Ohgren — the third day was a little bit of a treat. While no one made any game look easy, there were at least goals and points to talk about.
So how did they do on the third day of this Under-20 tournament?
David Spacek, Finland vs. Czechia
In the early afternoon game on Thursday, Spacek lined up on the Czechia blue line to face a decent-but-not-great Finland team and defend attackers like Joakim Kemell, Brad Lambert, and other top-rated young players on this top-heavy Scandinavian team.
