Today is Christmas. This kicks off a season for giving, family, forgiving (maybe?), and preparing for some of the most exciting hockey in the world. Yes, it's the time of year for the annual International Ice Hockey Federation World Junior Championships. It's a short international tournament featuring the most of the best hockey players under the age of 20. This is a big stage for the recently drafted, some of the top prospects for the 2016 Draft, and possibly for a few that were overlooked one year - but won't be now.
The 2016 WJCs are in Helsinki, Finland.
