  The IIHF announced on Wednesday that it has canceled the remainder of its 2022 World Junior Championship because of a rising number of COVID-19 cases among players.

  Why are you posting this on a Utes site before the Rose Bowl. Better yet, do you even ever watch Junior hockey tournaments? Or do you you want to encourage emergency room rush and long lines for unnecessary testing because of the panic factor? What the f**k man? Useless post on this site.

      Right. Post this stuff on a hockey site. I’m old and played hockey most of my life, and could give a damn about junior hockey. Besides, WTF are you posting it here for? Why????

  It had a lot to do with cancelling the girls junior worlds tournament in early January without having tested any of the players. They received a ton of backlash from the hockey world for cancelling that and letting the tournament in Canada play on.
  
  The international hockey world is really an interesting situation because of self-interest and it puts the CFP committee to shame with how they operate.
