Over the last two days and wrapping up this afternoon, Team Canada’s WJC hopefuls have been playing a team of U Sports all stars to help the team determine who will be cut and to get ready for the WJC which begins in just 12 days.
The format for goalies is simple: Each of the three: Ian Scott, Michael DiPietro and Matthew Villalta take the net for the opposition and face Team Canada backed up by the other two goaltending contenders, who each take half the game.
In game one, playing for 30 minutes, Scott allowed one goal and then a couple in the shootout as Team Canada ultimately won that one.
