Liking the Canadian pressure. Also credit where it is due, my boy Bean is doing well in the offensive zone. Most encouraging thing is that the players are already playing Ducharme's style very well.

I must also say that Mahura is playing well. It won't be terrible if he ends up on the team.

He's been pretty solid too, it's hard to choose between those two for the last spot, I just know that I haven't been overly impressed with Bean. I would be just as content with Mahura in the top 6 and Ferraro as the call-up.

Ferraro is not going to be a call up...

Like it or not Bean will retain his spot, no matter what happens with Fabbro...

I don't like it, but that's Hockey Canada...

I know, I'm just stating that I think it was a mistake as Ferraro played quite well, but there's nothing that can be done about it now.
 
Man I'm gonna feel bad for Mahura if Fabbro can come back. I've been impressed with him today.

If Fabbro can't play I'd like (even though it won't happen) to see Mahura take Bean's spot in the top 6 and bring bean as strictly a PP specialist

I'd go:
Kale-Cale
Mete-Timmins
Mahura-Foote
Bean

Always love TSN's effort to get the best media personnel to analyze and evaluate for their broadcasts in this tournament...

As a Jets fan our games color guys by and large... suckage.....
 
Great IQ from Katchouk there to give that puck back to Howden off his skate. Good save by the Swiss goalie
 
Just and add in re: Canada is fast...

Uniformly they are not just fast... Canada is high skill, high hockey IQ....

Past failures of Team Canada years ago had legs, less skill, duh IQ....

Nice to see this evolution with Canada since our early days were wrought with intimidation aka the 70's...

Don't get me wrong... I have the 72 Series DVD set and watch it every year.... but we have come a long way in our youth development...
 
meh would rather watch the USA SWE game


Point iffy with the puck handling lol

and this team will definitely give the US a run
 
The guys on this team are made for junior hockey. Great choices for this tournament.

Not just made for junior hockey...

They remind me of the LVK's....

Total team concept...

Never stop pressuring.... never stop skating....never stop going to the net....never stop moving the puck....

Completely out of the loop on this year's roster, so is Canada really this good? Or are the Czechs and Swiss just that bad?
