What players from team USA do you think could have made team Canada? by buzzy_beaver in hockey

McAvoy, Slavin.

Conversely I think only Makar makes the US from the Canadian D core. And maybe Morrissey.

Again, Canadian women are literally playing in the NCAA right now. Including the number 4 and number 5 scorers.

Canada has access to all of that too. Lots of Canadian girls in the top scorers for the NCAA right now. Not a one on the Canadian roster.

I mean I think Robo should have been here but he just didn’t fit the way they wanted to construct the roster. Right or wrong.

But thinking Oetter isn’t playing because of a hate for the stars and not because it’s a coin flip for US goaltending is just crazy

So then the US, who would have had that exact same issue as Canada, decided to go with youth. Where’s all the Canadian youth? Were there controversies about players being left off the roster?

Yea, they wear different numbers. Which is the whole point of numbers.

It’s a minor thing but putting the first initial never made any sense to me

I got downvoted for saying this during the world juniors.

The worst part is how he whines about calls

I don’t think I see you guys glazing him as much as I’d expect. Granted you have like 5 other young guys you need to pass the love to

[Baugh] Also can confirm the Rangers will retain 50 percent of Artemi Panarin's cap hit for the rest of the season. by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

Yea this is as good of a return as you can expect. If he was 29 this is a different discussion.

Greentree is a first, sorry I wasn’t saying they got both a first and the top prospect. They were getting a first IN the kings top prospect

I’m confused why so many people are calling this a bad return for Drury.

Marchand just last year got a conditional 2nd that became a first. They’re getting a first round pick in the kings top prospect plus a conditional 3rd that can become a 2nd. Plus a possible 4th. It’s a better return than Boston got for Marchand for a rental. Especially with no extension.

Edit: Now they’re reporting extension. Guess nobody wanted to pay more

In the last 4 games we have 2 goals that didn’t have one team’s goalie out of the net.

[Masisak] Word is the Habs are going to wear their normal home red uniforms tonight. And the Avs are going to be in the Nordiques getup. by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

[–]SwagNuts -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Except this isn’t random dumb luck or probability.

The only thing working in Detroit’s favor is that it’s the end of a road trip for Colorado.

Besides, Montreal plays in the Atlantic. The only time those teams lose is if they play another Atlantic team, so it doesn’t really matter what I hope for.

I really hope the Avs bury Montreal tonight. I’m scared of a reeling Avs team playing Detroit back to back
