of course, the USNDT is a great program and one canada should follow as well, but wont because of the $$ involved with the CHL.

Throwing 23 kids together in 2 weeks doesn't work anymore. The skill* gap is closed. Pure skill isn't enough anymore. Its not 1995



*this years team notwithstanding
Yet Canada has won 3 of the last 5 years.

Canada can take over with this pp gift. I'm not overly hopeful, but maybe I created a jinx post inadvertently.

If so, I still co-sign the f Cameron point

In shocking news, the Canadians look like they could use some better offensive players

The complaints about the Dickinson penalty would carry a little more weight if Svoboda wasn't buried by a crosscheck from behind on the same play.

Agreed but why aren't the other guys in the top 6 getting that same criticism. Seems disproportionate.
Exposure. That's hardly Cowen's problem, mind you. And it's not like he's completely bad, it's just that he's really frustrating.

Know who's been disappointing this tourney. Yager. I've hardly seen him all tourney. For a guy who was drafted in the top 15, and had a pretty good tourney last year.
He definitely has but think it's Cameron's doing. He's never looking to rush the puck and always being used defensive first. Plus 0 chemistry with linemates. It's very obvious cowan and Ritchie need to be separated, Ritchie should be put on Yagers wing

They have . But truth be told. Cowan isn't what was advertised.
Sure, but no one on Canada has been except George. Cowen and several others have been good, but I think there were higher expectations for everyone on the team.
