It’s December 12th, which means that the World Junior teams are to be solidified, and whoever’s going to Edmonton this year, is going.
For the Bruins, there were three prospective choices, but as we know now, only two will be heading to the 2021 Bubbled WJC. They are:
Defense prospect Roman Bychkov (From the Lokomotiv Yaroslavl), who will be joining Team Russia!
and Center prospect Matias Mantykivi, who will be joining Team Finland!
The only player that won’t be making his way over the border is Johnny Beecher, who tested positive for COVID, and as a result will be entering quarantine, and will not be joining Team USA for the World Juniors.
