Team USA's Nick Bjugstad (27) at the 2011 IIHF World Junior Championship
"Even having been in Florida for so long, the World Junior tournament is still a big deal for me and for my family. They’re glued to the TV, and I’m watching whenever I’m not traveling or working. Because Canada has done really well it has become such a huge, huge thing, overtaking the Grey Cup and a lot of other sporting events in the country. It’s become a spectacle."
- IIHF World Junior Championship alum and Panthers radio voice Randy Moller via the Calgary Herald. The 2012 WJC actually kicks off on December 26 featuring Florida prospects Nick Bjugstad and Jonathan Huberdeau, among others.
