From frank_seravalli: Hofer expected to start as Canada eyes top spot in Group B. MORE:
OSTRAVA, Czech Republic — All signs point to Joel Hofer getting his second start in as many days as Team Canada closes out the preliminary round at the World Junior Championship.
The Czech Republic, who will be without star forward Jan Jenik for the remainder of the tournament, could be fighting to avoid the relegation round on home soil. Lafreniere, 18, injured his left knee on Saturday against Russia. There is no change in his status and he will not play against the Czechs. That changed in a big way on Monday, with the defence accounting for four points in the 4-1 win over Germany.
