i was skeptical canada would have the appetite to carry both parekh and yakemchuk, that mightve been a bit too high roller, but i figured one could be the dedicated PP QB. its pretty shocking they chose to register mynio instead of SOSing one of them with schaefer out now

It’s stupid but shouldn’t be surprising at all. Hockey Canada is a joke of an organization.

I would’ve taken both from the start too

I really hate the changes the US has made to these jerseys recently. The version they had with Jack was so much better. These are perfect.

Still wish we had taken Buium last summer. We might regret not

100% should have taken Buium, the Devils got caught up in there being too much redundancy in style with Luke, Nemec, and Casey.

If it was that much of a dealbreaker, Helenius should have been the fallback.

I’m not huge on Helenius either but ya I think honestly think Buium ends up as a top 3 player in the draft. Or at least top 5.

How much politics goes into the hockey Canada selections? Political decisions are almost always going to hurt the team

Not that it matters - but if Russia was playing in this tournament we might be having a different discussion right now. Not taking anything away from Zeev BTW, just think Silayev would be very impressive in this tournament.

a lot. hage keeps getting overlooked because he went ushl->ncaa route (and hes not some undeniable player like celebrini), pinelli made the team because he plays for the coach in ottawa, there were murmurs (from grant i believe) about something non-hockey related to sennecke when he was in the u17s, and so on. this year feels extra bad

russia wouldve been a legit juggernaut in this tournament, such a shame we dont get to see it

I'm tired of blue being the main color, I wanna see a completely new design that distributes the colors move evenly since it's the red, white and blue.
