Bob Mack claims TB is not sending Drouin. I figured they would at least wait and see where he is at come the deadline but I assume they have a plan for him in Tampa, never a bad choice but a little disappointing as a big fan of this tournament

Saw this is well. I didn't expect him to be there but I was really hoping for it, he would be an absolute game breaker in this tourney.

3rd line is a very, very big third line.

6'2 226lbs-6'5 214lbs-6'1 207lbs

Should be fun to watch their physical dominance at least lol.

Don't know if it's been mentioned, but
Mark Masters @markhmasters · 4h 4 hours ago
Due to weather delays, Petan, Klimchuk, Heatherington and Point will miss Canada's first practice tonight

Mark Masters @markhmasters · 19m 19 minutes ago
Add Nurse to the list of players delayed due to weather... Duclair also won't make it on time so Fabbri takes his spot on top line


I honestly think Canada is putting Fabbri and McDavid together again after their Summer magic.

Hey, new to this forum, wanted to find a place to get excited about this great tournament!

Anyways, one thing no one has mentioned...This is on North American Ice...these big Virtanen's and Ritchie's up front...as well as Morin on the back end I don't think is as big of a deal if it was on International Ice...thoughts?

Welcome :)

I agree with you and I would say that NA ice will boost Canada's style of play. Huge hits are coming :yo:

I agree Gauthier uses his physical attributes to protect the puck and on the boards more than big huge checks. Still having another big body on that line is massive and I'm sure will be a huge handful to deal with on the forecheck.

Connor McDavid just ripped a puck into the top corner of the net at the Canadian National Jr. Camp. Looks pretty good from here.

Canada is practising shot blocking

McDavid did block one shot in drill before being sent to centre ice ... Probably best he take this one off

I hope other teams practice the fake shot, it'll be pretty easy since we now know these guys will go down for anything that resembles a shot lol.

Out of all the things you can practice first, with a collection of players that will form your team is shot blocking. Seems rather odd... :S

Fabbri - McDavid - Duclair
Dal Colle - Reinhart - Virtanen
Domi - Petan - Ritchie
Elie - Gauthier - Baptiste
Chartier

Morrissey - Nurse
Morin - Bowey
Fleury - Theodore
Hicketts.

Fucale
Comrie

My favourite lineup so far. Gives you 3 high-end scoring lines, and a 4th line with a good combo of speed and size.

I'm assuming these practices are not open to the public? Wouldn't mind going to take a look
http://www.hockeycanada.ca/en-ca/Team-Canada/Men/Junior/2014-15/Selection-Camp/Schedule

NOTE: All practices at the MasterCard Centre on Dec. 11-12 are open to the public free of charge, while both games at the Mattamy Athletic Centre will be ticketed. - See more at: http://www.hockeycanada.ca/en-ca/Te.../Selection-Camp/Schedule#sthash.J9yW8KFn.dpuf

So yeah, they're open to the public. Friday's first practice is 10:45AM ET.
