In all likelihood, Marchand would have made the team. But don’t kid yourself, he’s far no longer 1st line material on Canada anymore. The only way I see Marchand playing top 6 minutes is if Canada rolls an all Nova Scotia line.Are you serious dude? Even at age 36 Marchand is a first line star and I say this as a die hard feafs fan. He's a player you'd love to have on your team
Aside from that, Marchand likely plays a 4th line role and on the PK. It’s not a horrible selection by any means, but considering that you could have named another defensemen like Toews, Morrisey, Dobson, Theodore and monitor your other forwards play, it’s not the smartest selection by any means and seems very Hockey Canada-esque. Don Sweeney likely played a role in it
