Should Canada’s Matt Dumba be suspended during World Juniors for this obvious knee?
With Sweden up 2-0, Dumba made a dangerous play, sticking out his knee to take out Sweden’s Karlsson. Dumba was given a five-minute major and ejected from the game.
Dumba's potential discipline for the knee on Karlsson could extend the Canadian annual traditional of suspensions prior to the WJC.
