Fixed it

Byram is RFA, no contract. I doubt he's going.

He was hurt off and on during the season. Would have been a great addition, but needs the rest. Hope he plays another time though.

 

[JackSlater]

I like Guenther's potential, I imagine we will see him in a prominent role at this tournament some time in the future. He was solid last year at this event.

 

[ORRFForever]

That's too bad. He did slow down as the season went on - and a nagging injury explains that.

 

[Playmaker82]

Who is the top level choices left for RW/LW now?

Lafreniere, Bedard (although he really is best at C), Johnson is clear, But after that its actually not that easy.

DeBrusk, Jenner, McCann, Schwartz, Foerster, Sillinger maybe. O'Reilly could be put on the wing as well.

Only Konecny so far who is a clear winger.

McDavid

 

[jfc64]

Macklin Celebrini - Connor McDavid - Nathan MacKinnon
Braden Point - Sidney Crosby - Connor Bedard
Seth Jarvis - Robert Thomas - Jordan Kyrou
Jake Debrusk - Sue Zuki - Travis Konecny
Kent Johnson - Adam Fantilli

Robert Thomas and Jordan Kyrou not eligible. Jarvis and Colorado is 2-0 up, so unlikely.

And anyways, 8 of 14 forward-spots will not be open until after the first playoffround, so this is more of a fantasy than realistic.

Furthermore, ALL 6 players in the two first lines is centers.

I'd expect Kyrou will be "cleared" soon. I hadn't realized until this week that he didn't even attend the Hockey Canada event, and he is one of the few who is not listed as a potential witness in the trial. Not before this tournament though, even if St. Louis is out soon, as Hockey Canada will not want the optics of a player from the 2018 team playing internationally during the trial.
