The 2022 IIHF World Junior Championship starts today and we cannot wait to watch these Under-20 hockey players get on the ice so we can finally watch the sport we love. It has only been a couple months without it, but that’s still too long.
The Minnesota Wild have a total of eight prospects participating in the tournament in Edmonton this year and we have already published a little bit of a preview detailing what we might be able to expect from each of them as the represent their respective countries.
But when are they playing and how will we watch? We also have those answers for you down below.

...That’s a lot of hockey to watch and that’s fine by me.
This is just for the group stage, but there are certainly some top Wild prospects on the powerhouse countries like Canada, United States, and Sweden, that will most likely be involved in the tournament deep into the knockout stage and potentially playing for gold on Aug. 20. Happy prospect viewing!
