WJC: 2021 Team USA Roster Talk

[Pavel Buchnevich]

I don't believe that these decisions are being made to help or hurt any team. I don't think the people making these protocols care about the results of this tournament. I do however think there are some valid concerns voiced about how stupid and contradictory these protocols are. We see this is an issue not just with this tournament but also with the NHL. It's the same people causing the problems in both cases.

If Brisson is left alone even briefly, and is fed the puck, he should score a couple of goals. He has a quick release and nice shot. Sort of a Caufield light.

Not a peep out of their practices?

I'm waiting to see what their line combos look like.

How sure is everyone that York and Thrun are going to be the top pair?

That has been what’s reported, but we probably won’t know for sure until we watch them play their pre tournament game.

None of Canada's positives are on the roster. They had 2 and both aren't on the roster. The other 3 guys that got cut were deemed unfit to play but didn't test positive. None of the roster tested positive, but all had to quarantine for 2 weeks to ensure they were negative and would stay negative.

If you're going to make a point, which you may have reference these German players compared to the Swedish and American players, then don't throw in other things that aren't true, it degrades your point.

Didn't Holloway have to quarantine at the start of camp? Or was that just because he was coming in from the United States?

he did and yes

Tomorrow's exhibition is off due to Sweden / Germany Covid cases. Each team will only play one exhibition now, except Sweden / Germany won't play any. Team USA plays Finland on Tuesday.

The guys who were invited to camp coming from the USA had to quarantine for 14 days(Newhook, Holloway, Levi), once covid broke out in our camp everyone had to quarantine for 14 days including these 3. Then once they entered the bubble everyone had to quarantine for 4 more days. So essentially since early November those 3 guys have been in quarantine for about a month total. But none of those were amongst the positive tests of symptomatic players. It's was all precautionary quarantine for border crossing/close contact/bubble entrance

Think about that. These guys basically had to stay in a room for an entire month. So basically like me, but only a month instead of all year round.

They aren't as well conditioned as you are

So stoked to see Brisson going to my favorite college and now an American prospect for my team holding this kid lights the lamp a couple times

I know of seniors homes in Ontario that will accept new residents but they have to stay in their room for 14 days. Nobody is willing to do this. I don't think I could. At least I have a whole house and property to walk around if I had to quarantine.

TSN direct is showing an upcoming "warm-up" game USA v.s. Switzerland tonight @ 6pm ET. Is this just out of date schedule since before the exhibition cancellations?

We haven't even gotten lines. Maybe we'll know the captain by the New Year.

I heard Dach is captain with Byram and Cozens being the As I could be wrong though.

That's for Canada. For USA, my best guess for captains is...

Captain: Zegras
Alternates: Caufield, York
