On this episode of The Hockey News American Pipeline Podcast with Sydney Wolf and Mike Stephens:
- The World Jr. A Challenge precedes the World Junior Championship, and the United States are off to a respectable start in Cornwall, Ont. Who's impressing the most as the USA are 2-1 with one more preliminary game to go?
- John Waldron of the Miami University RedHawks is the player to watch in the NCAA. The 6-foot-1, 20-year-old freshman is following up last year's 45 points in 51 games in the USHL with 11 points in 14 matches in 2022-23.
- Should Quinnipiac be the No. 1 team in the polls? They're 14-1-3 compared to the other top teams who have around five losses now.
- The Arizona Coyotes have seven NCAA prospects and three USHL players in their organization. Will it be the American Pipeline that fuels the Coyotes out of their rebuild in a few years' time?
- And more.
