Unfortunately, I am unable to change the name of the page to "2015 World Junior Hockey Championships", due to facebook rules. Thus means that this page of ours will have less traffic during the 2015 tournament, which is unfortunate because I like to reach out to as many fans possible. I will still update and discuss about the 2015 tournament, although I am attending. Thanks everyone.
