David Reinbacher is a right-shot defenseman with great skating and a remarkable defensive game that leads me to believe he’s a no-doubt first round talent in the 2023 NHL Draft. He is playing big minutes this year in the top Swiss league where he’s scoring a lot more than I expected him to despite playing against tough competition on a nightly basis. 

I think Reinbacher is good enough to drag Austria into competition and keep them in the top division of the IIHF World Junior Championship.

He has experience with the WJC as well, already making the cut for the U20 tournament as a 16-year-old last December and then again in the re-scheduled August tournament. In a combined nine games Bedard has scored 13 points in this tournament and is only going to get better. I expect he’ll get some time on the first line with one or both of Shane Wright and Adam Fantilli, a potential superstar caliber line

Connor Bedard has made the Western Hockey League (WHL) look like a semi-organized beer league this year, scoring 64 points in 28 games, only going pointless once, in his first game of the season. His performance last season for the Regina Pats of 51 goals and 100 points would have been an impressive draft year, but Bedard has somehow leveled up his production and play, becoming the most dangerous offensive player in his league. On pace for well over 100 points this year, Bedard will most likely be the first overall pick in the 2023 NHL Draft.

I’m going to try my hand at predicting some of the biggest news of the tournament before it begins, and I’ll even throw in a bonus, way-too-bold prediction for each entry to increase the likelihood that I’m wrong. Let’s get speculating!

Last year we saw Team Czechia pull off the upset against Team USA in the quarterfinals and Mason McTavish making a ridiculous defensive play to rob Team Finland of the gold medal in overtime. Junior hockey is unpredictable so gathering 10 teams of the best junior-aged players in the world means this tournament is pretty tough to predict.

The Americans are eager to rebound from their shocking 2022 4-2 quarter-final loss to Czechia. Both expectations and confidence are high after new head coach Rand Pecknold’s squad downed Finland (5-2) and Sweden (5-1) in pre-tournament play. With eight returning players and plenty of talented newcomers, they could threaten Canada’s dream of repeating at home.

Six of the U.S.’s seven first-round picks from 2021 and 2022 are at forward. This group should have no trouble scoring in the group stage. Expect Logan Cooley (University of Minnesota) and Cutter Gauthier (Boston College) to flaunt why they were top-10 choices for Arizona and Philadelphia respectively this year. They bring exquisite vision and playmaking. And Winnipeg fans are salivating at the prospect of Chaz Lucius (Manitoba Moose) and Rutger McGroarty (University of Michigan) filling the net in their World Junior debuts.

On defence, captain Luke Hughes, another of the five University of Michigan players on this roster, will be motivated to bring home a gold medal. His famous NHL brothers, Jack Hughes of the New Jersey Devils and Quinn Hughes of the Vancouver Canucks, were unable to achieve that feat in their World Junior careers. Luke Hughes could get competition from Lane Hutson in terms of the scoring lead among U.S. blueliners. Slender but slippery, the NCAA rookie has racked up 18 points in 16 games with Boston University, and was named Best D-man at the last U18 Worlds.

However, will one of the three NHL-draft eligible goalies will take charge in a championship run? Kaidan Mbereko is eager to put the memory of last year’s playoff exit behind him. The 19-year-old has posted great numbers (2.26 GAA, 92.6 save percentage) with Colorado College this season. He’s Pecknold’s logical go-to. Gifted 17-year-old Trey Augustine (USNTDP) will aim to make his mark, while Andrew Oke (Saginaw Spirit) would love to play more than the two periods he got in August in a 7-0 walloping of Austria.

Without a John Gibson (2013) or Spencer Knight (2021) between the pipes, a sixth all-time U.S. World Junior gold medal is still feasible. But Canada, at least on paper, has the upper hand between the North American rivals at the 2023 World Juniors.

Starting goalie Kevin Pasche, 19, went winless in three Edmonton starts en route to eighth place. Pasche has endured a so-so season as a backup with the USHL’s Omaha Lancers (3.36 GAA, 89.6 save percentage in 11 games). His defence will get an upgrade from August. Lian Bichsel, Dallas’s 2022 first-rounder (18th overall), missed the last World Juniors in a dispute with the Swiss federation over the towering Leksand blueliner’s skipping a summer camp. But Bichsel is ready to go this time. Returning 19-year-old Brian Zanetti of the Peterborough Petes, a Philadelphia fourth-rounder (110th overall) last year, will look to elevate his game.

With that said, the Swiss tied Latvia and Slovakia for the second-fewest total goals in August (11), and they lack scoring forwards. Attilio Biasca did his best in Edmonton. The undrafted attacker scored the late 3-2 winner against Austria to lift Switzerland into the playoffs and then tallied twice in a 6-3 quarter-final loss to Canada. However, the current Halifax Mooseheads captain, 19, will need to be extra-fired up about competing on Atlantic Canada ice in order to improve on that performance. Second-year Moncton Wildcats forward Jonas Taibel, who scored twice at the 2022 World Juniors, will certainly get some local cheers.

Edging out either Slovakia or Latvia for a playoff berth in Group B isn’t a sure thing. Yet on paper, it looks nearly certain that the Swiss won’t do better than another quarter-final exit. 

Despite a cornucopia of talent, Sweden’s latest gold medal drought stretches back to 2012. The Juniorkronorna’s only other title came in 1981. They settled for bronze in 2020 and 2022. For 2023, the Swedes enter with a respectable, strong roster. But it’s hard to label them as favourites versus Canada, Finland, or the United States.

Goaltender Carl Lindbom, 19, enters as the starter. Lindbom didn’t play in August despite being on the roster. The 2021 seventh-round pick of the Vegas Golden Knights has excelled with a 1.78 GAA and 93.6 save percentage for Djurgarden in 21 HockeyAllsvenskan games this season.

The blue line is decent but unspectacular in the absence of Detroit Red Wings prospect Simon Edvinsson. There’s just one 2022 returnee in Ludvig Jansson, drafted this year in the fourth round by the Florida Panthers. The Sodertalje product, 18, went pointless in four outings in Edmonton. Skelleftea’s Axel Sandin-Pellikka is a potential 2023 first-round pick and will look to make an impression at age 17. Rogle’s Adam Engstrom, a 19-year-old making his World Junior debut, also brings a good skating game, if not much offence.

Sweden’s strongest suit is its forwards. This is Fabian Lysell’s last chance to dominate at a World Juniors at age 19. The top Boston Bruins prospect has racked up 19 points in 20 AHL games with Providence so far this year. Buffalo’s 2021 first-rounder Isak Rosen has also come out strong in his first AHL campaign with Rochester. Lysell and Rosen need to bring their A-games, but they should also get some offensive support.

After struggling with Djurgarden, Jonathan Lekkerimaki – chosen 15th overall by Vancouver this year – yearns to rediscover the form that brought him the 2022 U18 Worlds scoring title with 15 points. Noah Ostlund (16th overall to Buffalo) and Liam Ohgren (19th overall to Minnesota), Lekkerimaki’s Djurgarden teammates, have been quite productive in Allsvenskan, though. And Orebro’s Leo Carlsson, just 17, has impressed with 14 SHL points in 24 games.

Perhaps the best reason to believe in gold is head coach Magnus Havelid’s recent record. He’s taken over from Tomas Monten, whose run lasted from 2017 to 2022. Havelid, a 51-year-old Enkoping native, guided Sweden to victory at both the 2019 U18 Worlds in Ornskoldsvik and the 2022 tournament in Landshut. In 2019, Havelid had a stacked roster, including Lucas Raymond, Alexander Holtz, and Philip Broberg. This year, his Swedes surprisingly rode goalie Hugo Havelid (Magnus’s nephew) to victory. They got outshot 93-38 on aggregate in their semi-final and gold-medal wins over Finland and the U.S. respectively.

Did you know that Slovakia has finished eighth a whopping 12 times in its 27 top-division World Junior appearances? Stats like that make it hard to believe that the Slovaks, who came ninth in 2022, are destined for anything better than a quarter-final exit.
