If anyone could post the other lines that would be great! I don’t have an Athletic account.

Are we really going to have no representation at the WJC?

I noticed that to be the case when I read the article yesterday. Lindstrom would have been our best bet.

Melvin Strahl is the closest we got. Waddell went heavy on Canadians in the draft and that’s a tough lineup to crack.

Marelli should hopefully at least get a look for team Canada. Tied for points lead in ohl for defensemen.

Lindstrom would of course be a lock if healthy.

I usually only watch to follow CBJ prospects so definitely disappointing.

• Dickinson and Bonk and Parekh seem like locks, especially when Dickinson and Bonk already are a pairing in London and have chemistry
• I think when you get past the top four the team is looking for "best fit" which is likely not just offensive stats. Even Carter Yakemchuk doesn't make this projected cut.
• The Hockey News also projects Yakemchuk as maybe the #7. Marelli might not even get an invite to camp.
• On a side note, THN has Evan Gardner as perhaps an invite who doesn't make the cut and Wheeler mentions him in the also-rans.

I saw people say Flyers have a mediocre pipeline yet they have 4 players on team Canada

@ViD is going to leave us for the Hurricanes in a few years. Look at all the Russian prospects they have.

Did you see those jerseys though ?

Dang, that’s depressing.

Seems like Pinelli might be our only chance, and it’s a long shot.

Ohio native AJ Spellacy is invited to US camp. Drafted by Chicago, he sounds like the kind of kid DW would have been targeting in this past draft.

Carter Yakemchuk not in consideration is wild to me. He was great in NHL pre-season. This is his last year of eligibility too.
