Seriously now, things are looking interesting! Lots of quality NHLers joining their national squad. We could get a mini olympics.

But I bet that European hockey countries will broadcast the vast majority of meaningful games. In addition, Europeans are usually offered to buy a pass for streaming all games (+watching archived games) for I believe something like $30 total. Last several years, USA fans were excluded from this deal (but I believe the meaningful games were broadcast on Versus? ).

Former Pens draft pick Alexandre Rouleau plays at the WCs for France, if I'm not mistaken.
