All it took was some time on the ice for Quinton Byfield to get back up to speed.
“Definitely in camp not playing hockey for eight-to-nine months definitely affects you a little bit," Byfield said after Team Canada’s 10-0 rout of Switzerland Tuesday night. "I had to ease myself into it a little bit, almost, and I’ve found my footing.”
After recording just one assist through two tournament games, Byfield exploded for a pair of goals and added four assists as Team Canada dominated Team Switzerland to remain undefeated at the 2021 IIHF World Junior Hockey Championship.
