World Cup: Four Nations Tournament-Team Canada

[ToDavid]

Given how the Penguins season is going, maybe Crosby should be pulling out of regular season games until the four nations tournament, rather than vice versa.

Did Mark Stone decline?

I wonder if crosby sit outs of the 4 nations tourney, they call up schiefle or not.

Maybe not the right place, and it is a constant rant and gripe of mine...

But I see saw the McDavid interview on SportsNet about this thing, and the Canada jerseys have a Rogers ad on the shoulder sleeve?

Absolutely disgusting the national jersey is bastardized with a soulless corporation's logo. Gross.

Who was chosen as Pietrangelo replacement?

I love how Hockey Canada management and Armstrong insist that the selection process was unbiased. Hockey Canada SERIOUSLY needs adults in there.
-Suzuki snubbed because of WC
-Thompson snubbed due to petty coaches
-Assuming Parayko and Binnington were picked because of Armstrong. I do think Parayko makes a strong case for actually being there though.
-Marchand was probably in the first 6 because of Sweeney.

Why can’t we just have the most deserving and best players represent their country?

Canada should have a GM that is not affiliated with an NHL team, Imo.

Scheifele should have been picked. Ditto for Logan Thompson. This is not the best Team Canada roster.

This roster give me Bobby Clarke 1998 vibes.

Anyone think they roll both Morrissey and Theodore on the 2nd PP? I think it would be Interesting to get the most use of their offensive defencemen.
Something like:

Marner-Point-Konecny/Stone
Morrisey-Theodore

The one pro thing about this team is that you can literally switch any player from PP2 to PK and vice-versa without a hiccup. Marchand, Hagel, Cirelli, Jarvis can all play the PP and Point, Marner and Konecny can all PK

Still wish they brought a more versatile center outside of Cirelli. Bennett just doesn’t cut it.

 

[Mathieukferland]

Should be good to go hopefully

OG Caps fans know that Cassidy might be a good coach but he's an insensitive, petty human being.

Makes sense to have 2 D out there... especially if they are only going to be out there for the last 20-30 seconds of the powerplay
