"If Josi is available and healthy, he will be present in Moscow," Patrick Fischer said and made clear that the 25-year-old defenseman is set for the World Championships if he will be out of the NHL playoffs by then. Josi and the Predators will play Game 7 of the series against the Anaheim Ducks tonight.
Forward Kevin Fiala, on the other hand, is not part of Fischer's plans for the World Championships for a simple reason: "We were disappointed that he did not join the junior national team in Finland," he explains. (tme)
Patrick Fischer: "Si Josi est disponible et en santé, il sera présent à Moscou." Décision cette nuit, du coup dès 4h.
