New York Rangers Prospect ejected from World Juniors game for DANGEROUS Slew-foot

Brett Berard was drafted in the 5th round, 134th overall back in 2020 by the New York Rangers.

Berard had a great season in Providence College last year scoring 18 goals and 38 points in 36 games, which helped land him a spot on the Team U.S.A World Junior squad.

In yesterday's game against Czechia, Berard was given a major penalty and ejected for slew-footing Columbus Blue Jackets prospect David Jiricek.

Berard is now the 3rd Rangers prospect to be ejected in the tournament for a major penalty, joining Adam Sykora and Will Cuylle.

After review, 🇺🇸 Brett Berard has been assessed a five-minute major and game misconduct for slew-footing.

🇨🇿 Czechia is headed to the power-play in the 3rd period.
