Your team Canada U-20 final roster

[Flames Draft Watcher]

O'Marra's a lock IMO. I think he's played very well. Great tools, size, skating, skill and willing to throw the body.

Well after watching the 3 scrimmages and noting which players were scratched I'm guessing the players chosen will be...

Latendresse-Bolland-Blunden
Pouliot-Cogliano-O'Marra
Chipchura-Boyd-Comeau
Pyatt-Toews-Bertram
Downie/Setoguchi

Staal-Barker
Bourdon-Letang
Russel-Parent
Schultz/Pokuluk

Pogge
Price

Tough call on Schultz v Pokuluk and Setoguchi v Downie.

Ding Ding. We have a winner. If you read the TSN stuff, this is pretty much what is being bantered about. They (the panelists) seem to want Ellis to win over Price. At least that's my impression. However, I really think Ellis has played himself out of the spot. We'll see.

The only real decision, as you said, was between 7th defenseman and 13th forward. I think Pokuluk and Downie will win out. Everything else you've put is spot on.

This is going to be an interesting team. There isn't the "name" guys that other teams have and I'm worried there isn't that gamebreaker. This team is going to have to be just that....a team. They are going to have to work as a cohesive unit, relying on everyone to contribute. Consistent effort and physical play. One of the goalies is going to have to step it up big time. That is the only way they are going to win, imo.
