In the 2024 IIHF World Junior Championship, Canada's Macklin Celebrini has been a standout player, contributing significantly to the team's performance. Celebrini has been involved in various plays, including scoring goals and providing assists. He was also involved in a controversial hit resulting in his ejection from a pre-tournament game. Canada has secured victories, including a 10-0 win against Latvia and a 4-0 win against Switzerland. Germany achieved an upset victory over Finland with a 4-3 win. The USA also had a strong start in the tournament, with Cutter Gauthier and Jimmy Snuggerud making notable contributions to the team's success.
Cutter Gauthier (PHI) not currently credited with an assist on this play (possibly because the defenseman put it in), but if he gets credit he's up to four assists today. https://t.co/EUAeiK0I7P
USA up 5-1 after 1. Hat trick from Jimmy Snuggerud (STL), Will Smith (SJS) and Zeev Buium (2024) with the other goals. After an inauspicious start against Norway, this is a little more like the kind of way we thought this group would play.
Great work from Cutter Gauthier here to tie up Switz centerman and draw the play back to Snuggerud. Gauthier (4) with his third assist, it’s only the first period. #WorldJuniors | #LetsGoFlyers https://t.co/NgPSsvFUUb
That's a first-period hat trick for Jimmy Snuggerud (STL)! 12:34 into the game so he has plenty of time for another three... Right?🤔 #TeamUSA #WorldJuniors https://t.co/Ao9Vr3ZZaf
THE KID IS GOOD. Jimmy Snuggerud completes his hat trick in the first period! 🧢🧢🧢 #WorldJuniors https://t.co/AqtKqH3msp
#stlblues prospect Jimmy Snuggerud has a hat trick for Team USA in World Juniors against Switzerland - and it's still the first period. https://t.co/azl7ubo22e
USA just scored a near carbon copy of this goal. Cutter Gauthier wins the draw. Jimmy Snuggered does the rest, attacking a cross the top of the circle and ripping one past Ewan Huet, who has been pulled. 4-1 USA. A first-period hat-trick for Snuggerud. #STLBlues #WorldJuniors https://t.co/3cF68Qm1sq
And that's a first-period hat trick from Jimmy Snuggerud (STL). Another faceoff win from Cutter Gauthier (PHI) and it's on Snuggerud's stick and then immediately off it. In comes Ewan Huet in net. 4-1 USA.
Jimmy Snuggerud's got two goals! @usahockey | @StLouisBlues | #WorldJuniors https://t.co/9EABsRjd9W
Jimmy Snuggerud second of the game👀🇺🇸 @usahockey #WorldJuniors #SUIUSA https://t.co/EcwhO2CBpN
After getting stopped on a wide-open look from the hashmarks, Jimmy Snuggered and his line stay on and he scores on the ensuing faceoff for his second of the period. 3-0 USA. #WorldJuniors #STLBlues
Jimmy Snuggered (STL) sticks with the play to the net and scores on a rebound. 2-0 USA just 3:21 in. They got the message after their slow start against Norway it would seem, and the Swiss are going to suffer because of it. #WorldJuniors #STLBlues
Jimmy Snuggerud (STL) from in tight makes it 2-0 USA before Switzerland has a shot on goal.

Cutter Gauthier logged 6:51 minutes of ice time in the first period with 0 shots on goal. #WorldJuniors | #LetsGoFlyers
From @cherylpounder, @odognine2 & @TSNBobMcKenzie - Breaking down Canada's opening #WorldJuniors win over Finland and how it compared to last year's upset, who stood out in the game for Team Canada, and Macklin Celebrini's first goal of the tournament: https://t.co/9rJKcybqz0 https://t.co/hvUvdyWfd1
Trey Augustine (DET) had to make some big saves down the stretch of the first period. USA out-shot Norway 14-10, but some of the looks Norway has gotten have been very dangerous. Also Michael Brandsegg-Nygård (2024) has been impressive.
Team USA comes out flat in the first period and Norway came out looking to compete. 0-0 after the first 20 minutes. #WorldJuniors
USA 0-for-2 on the power play and Norway has actually put together a bit of a counter-attack here. USA not very direct to the net. A lot of extra passes. Perreault-Smith-Leonard did just generate one of their best looks, but Markus Stensrud made the stop. Still 0-0 late in 1st.

After a lengthy and tricky review, Team Canada has taken a 3-1 lead with 13:22 left in the third period. Macklin Celebrini (2024) gets last touch and his first of the tournament on a scramble in the crease. Unassisted (for now).

Canada gets within a goal as Macklin Celebrini (2024) had his pass deflected into the U.S. net by Seamus Casey (NJD) on the power play. Second goal of the game for Celebrini. 5-4. Celebrini has been awesome in the pre-tournament play.
2024 NHL Draft Diary: Macklin Celebrini --https://t.co/nojiNxrH87
Macklin Celebrini (2024) scores on the rebound. Looked like a pretty clear kick, but they're not reviewing in pre-tournament. Either way, it's Celebrini's sixth point through 2.33 pre-tournament games for Canada.
Macklin Celebrini (2024) avoids suspension for hit in game vs. Switzerland. IIHF rules penalty on the ice was sufficient. Details: https://t.co/BXQJi8gyWN

Jimmy Snuggerud (STL) gets Team USA on the board on a clean faceoff win from Cutter Gauthier (PHI). Oliver Moore (CHI) created a little distraction at the net-front and it may have deflected off the defender that went with Moore. 2-1 SWE.
