Not yet well enough to travel, Johnson's season is almost certainly over, but he's stuck waiting to go home.

All of the quarterfinals are done, and Auston Matthews was the name on everyone's lips as the USA staged the only upset of the day.

It's quarterfinal day! There are four games today, so get ready to watch Auston Matthews, Leo Komarov, Nikita Zaitsev and Morgan Rielly try to make it through to the semis.

Is Nikita Zaitsev the best defender on his team? How is Morgan Rielly doing? And don't forget Martin Marincin, his results might surprise you.

Finland shut out Canada 4-0 to take the first overall spot in the IIHF World Championships, while Russia and Nikita Zaitsev easily beat Sweden 4-1.

Last night after Clune scored the game winning goal, he had more words for Andrew Campbell, a man who was there when he needed him, than he did for himself.

It's the last day of the round robin and all the Leafs players are in action. Yes, Martin Marincin too. Here's your schedule and a preview of what's at stake.

Hindsight is the best. You have all the data at your fingertips, and you know now what you didn't know then. When the Leafs made deadline deals, we guessed at how good or bad they are, now we can take another look and see how they measure up.

He shocked everyone else too, likely himself even, but he scored the game winner in Germany's 3-2 regulation win over the USA at the World Championships.

As the round robin portion of the event heads to the clash of titans on Tuesday when Canada plays Finland, there are Leafs players in action today.

It's not the longest suspension given for an illegal check to the head this season, but it's close. It's also no the first suspension for Dan Kelly or for the Albany Devils

Keefe called the hit by Dan Kelly on Johnson sickening and hard to watch.

A dangerous open-ice illegal check to the head takes Andreas Johnson out of the game.

With Stuart Percy out, the rookie gets the nod.

A tough loss is not how you want your first game in a new league to go, but Andreas Johnson played his game well.

Nikita Zaitsev negotiated the Russian team lineup on the opening day of the 2016 IIHF World Championships and came out of it not the winner but maybe the wiser.

The Leafs have three players and one we already claim in the World Championships.

The Toronto Marlies' second round opponent is the Albany Devils, an old enemy this time, not a stranger.

Three games tonight what's up with that.

This morning you can watch the livestream of the USA - Finland friendly via the USA Hockey website.

Welcome our newest recruit to the team, everyone.

Is expecting a teenager, even a top draft pick with pro experience, to be the top line centre too much? Will he be the 1C right away?

It's official, Leo Komarov is on the final roster for Team Finland heading into the IIHF World Championships in Russia this week. But, first he has to get by Auston Matthews.

Today Swedish reports say that Johnson is on his way to the Marlies now!

The consensus second and third choices for the 2016 NHL draft have a lot in common beyond just being Finnish. Choosing between them is consuming the attention of prospect watchers, but have we done it? Do we know which is better?
