It's the most wonderful time of the year! Ross Levitan and Brandon Piller are joined by The Hockey News/Sports Illustrated contributor Tony Ferrari for what is now a holiday tradition of previewing the World Junior Championships that begin with pre-tournament play tomorrow night. We discuss what kind of impact all five Sens prospects (Jake Sanderson, Tyler Kleven, Ridly Greig, Roby Jarventie and Leevi Merilainen) could have and get Tony's predictions for Gold, Silver and Bronze. We also discuss Tony's 2022 NHL Draft rankings; asking which would be the most "Sens" pick in the first round, the strength of this class vs recent years and more! Finally, we dive into Jake Sanderson being named Captain for Team USA's quest to repeat and answer the trivia question we posted @SensCentral on Twitter: Who are the seven Sens prospects to wear the 'C' for their country at this prestigious tournament?
