Absolutely. It’s a huge deal for a Canadian kid to make that team.

Incredible for UConn to have one of their players on that team.

Not so good for a team that already has trouble scoring to be missing him for two games, however.

Matthew Wood makes Canada's World Juniors team

Wood will be the sixth UConn player to suit up in the tournament.

-> Wood is the first UConn player to represent Canada in World Juniors. Last year, Ryan Tverberg got an invite to camp but didn’t make the cut for the final roster. Other Huskies to play in the tournament include Vlad Firstov and Yan Kuznetsov with Russia in 2021, Jachym Kondelik with the Czech Republic in 2019, Adam Huska with Slovakia in 2016 and 2017, and Tage Thompson with Team USA in 2017. <-

Playing with ‘24 NHL #1 overall pick Celebrini

10 Hockey East players between both rosters:

BC: 7
BU: 2
UConn: 1
 
6:02 of ice time, 7 shifts

Least amount of ice time and shifts on the team

I didn’t see him on the ice in the 3rd period

I think his skating, specifically his acceleration, is really holding him back. He looks really slow on the ice. He could be similar to Tage Thompson, and he is still growing into his body.
 
Wood getting an opportunity today on Canada’s 2nd power play unit against Latvia.

Slap shot from Wood from the left circle tipped in by Owen Allard. Wood gets an assist.

Allard’s sister, Ashley, plays on UConn’s women team.
 
2nd assist for Wood. Heck of a pass from Wood.

Terrific pass from d zone circle to Celebrini at the opposite blue line for a breakaway.

UConn to BU

Wood scores a goal. 3rd point of the day

It’s against Latvia but he looks a lot more confident today

Through 2 periods versus Sweden, only 1 shift for 37 seconds
 
Finished with 7 shifts for 5:03 of ice time

Vast majority of the time was spent on the 2nd power play unit
 
UConn gets Wood back

UMass’ starting goalie keeps playing
