New poll series coming from me in June
I'd def push for Holtby and Talbot if the Caps and Oilers get eliminated. Looking forward to this tournament starting tomorrow.
Claude Giroux has been named captain of Team Canada.

Ryan O'Reilly of the Buffalo Sabres, Matt Duchene of the Colorado Avalanche and Marc-Edouard Vlasic of the San Jose Sharks will serve as alternate captains.
I would be very surprised if they added another goaltender. Regardless of whether Comrie is officially listed, they still have three goaltenders in Paris already. I don't think anything short of Martin Brodeur circa 2008 calling them up and demanding to go will change the current goaltenders.
That is as expected. Correct choices.
Hextall said on the radio he is still looking to add to the roster. Specifically on defense.
There will be no Holtby or Talbot so get behind the goalies that are there.
Gotta love the West Island!Three Montreal West Island boys on the team!
Edit: Make that four because i am sure Vlasic was also from the West Island even though it says Montreal.
For those that don't know, the west island is what we Montrealer's consider the anglo part of Montreal. To see 4 players representing the country from that area is big for me having grown up there.
