I had a conversation about the morals of melodyne yesterday and am curious on the general feeling about it an auto-tune. Is it being fake? Is it artistic expression? What are your thoughts? I personally love the sound of imperfect vocals from great vocalists (hello Jeff…

Two goals in today’s Team USA win for the top #NYR prospect, plus another from defenseman Drew Fortescue. https://t.co/mUDqn8m2uK
Interesting project that tries to do what Mediazona did but for Ukrainian military losses. Numbers can't really be directly compared between the two because two different groups examining two different countries, etc. But it's better than nothing. https://t.co/1h5laLS40A

Good day for Minutemen in Sweden - @UMassHockey goalie leads Czechia to stunning World Juniors upset. https://t.co/k0CrBUwLTG
Another goal from Dans Locmelis (BOS) makes it 7-2. Latvia's captain and a frequent NCAA opponent of many of USA's players, has each of his team's tallies tonight.
Canada's three-peat world juniors bid is over in shocking fashion. Jakub Stancl scored with 11 seconds left to lift Czechia past Canada 3-2 in the tournament's quarterfinals, write @coreypronman and @scottcwheeler ⤵️ https://t.co/vQUM3LCTVj

After two periods in Sweden, USA leading Latvia 6-1 in quarterfinal action. #GoBolts prospect Isaac Howard with a primary assist on a power play goal. Assuming US holds this lead, semifinals will be on Thursday
what a goal for Perreault, what a reaction #USA #WJC https://t.co/V6MiPVVJTD
Gabe Perreault (NYR) makes it 6-1 by knocking a puck out of mid-air for his second of the game. Another goal for the BC line, which has been a little quieter than expected in this tournament. Not today. 35th goal of the WJC for Team USA.
USA up 3-1 on Latvia after 1. Goals from Drew Fortescue (NYR), Gabe Perreault (NYR) and Seamus Casey (NJD) for USA. Dans Locmelis (BOS) from Latvia. Shots were 13-6 USA.
Seamus Casey (#NJDevils) credited with the U.S. third goal, but upon review, appears puck may have glanced off Danny Nelson (NYI) in the slot at 14:03 of the third. There was a ton of traffic in front. We'll see. Either way, USA takes 3-1 lead vs Latvia
Cutter Gauthier sets up the play with a great drive behind the net and sets up shop in front, 1-0 USA over Latvia. #WorldJuniors | #LetsGoFlyers https://t.co/MCO8ihFNiC
EARLY GOAL FOR THE AMERICANS Drew Fortescue scores to give Team USA the lead just minutes into the first! #WorldJuniors https://t.co/XaNFAyp3T9
Cutter Gauthier sets up the play with a great drive behind the net and the puck finds its way to the point, 1-0 USA over Latvia. #WorldJuniors | #LetsGoFlyers
Drew Fortescue (NYR) gets things started early as Team USA is up 1-0 on Latvia 1:31 into the game. USA's 30th goal in tournament play. The 29 they scored in the prelims was a record for USA since the WJC became a 10-team tournament in 1996.
The goal that sent Canada home. Heartbreaker for the Canadians. 😬 (🎥: @TSN_Sports) https://t.co/LXZXMUUkxu
#CBJ rookie D David Jiricek very excited by the developments in Sweden.
David Jiricek was quite excited to find out during morning skate that Czechia just beat Canada at the World Juniors. Did a victory lap around the ice with his arms raised. #CBJ https://t.co/eIOPsGaYDC

Canada has lost in the quarters at the #WorldJuniors. The quest for a three-peat is over. They pushed for most of the second half of the game, and controlled play, but the Czechs hung in and got the one they needed, when they needed it. Canada didn’t get that all tournament.
After a perfect group stage, @usahockey looks to stay hot in the knockout round! Team USA takes on Latvia at 11am ET/8am PT on NHL Network! #WorldJuniors https://t.co/40Q0WV1iiC
Jake Furlong (SJS) scores from the point and Canada has tied it. 2-2. Nice play by Matthew Savoie (BUF) moments earlier on a dash to the slot, too. #WorldJuniors #SJSharks

#Flames first-rounder Sam Honzek, an alternate captain for the Slovaks, finishes the tournament with three goals, four points and 10 shots on net in five games. https://t.co/9jNjBfdgNE
#Flames forward prospect Sam Honzek played a role in a last-minute tying goal — winning a board battle to secure possession and later providing a screen out front — but Slovakia ultimately loses 4-3 in OT in a world-junior quarterfinal against Finland.
THE CAPTAIN WINS IT! Jere Lassila is the OT hero as Finland ends Slovakia's impressive tournament in the quarter-final! #WorldJuniors https://t.co/EMT6eSv6C3
Just 24 seconds into 3-on-3 overtime, Jere Lassila gets in alone and finishes on a tuck at the far post. The Finns are into the semis. The Slovaks are heartbroken. Adam Gajan is frozen in the Slovak net as his teammates line up at the blue line. Man. What a game.
Two Blues prospects factoring in … Dvorsky tied it 2-2 for Slovakia and Kaskimaki made it 3-2 Finland before game went to OT. https://t.co/DycISVxZCA
Slovakia and Finland are headed to overtime for a spot in the semis. Slovakia has played in the semis just three times (1999, 2009, 2015) at the #WorldJuniors and has medaled just twice (bronze x2). Can this special 2004/2005 age group get them back into a medal game?
GOOOOOAL! 🚨 Aleksanteri Kaskimaki rips one past Adam Gajan to give Finland the lead with 1:34 on the clock! #WorldJuniors https://t.co/j2HEpZ10tm

Finland and Slovakia are tied 1-1 heading into the second intermission here. Shots were 5-4 Slovakia in a very tight period. Should be an interesting third with a trip to the semis on the line.
