stupid title  Canada pre-tournament starts tonight!  Projected roster! Domi-Reinhart-Duclair Ritchie-Paul-Point Crouse-Gauthier-Virtanen Dal Colle-Dickinson-Chartier Fabbri Nurse-Theodore Morin-Bowey Morrissey-Fleury Heatherington Fucale Scratches: McDavid, Lazar, Petan & Hicketts McDavid unlikely to take part in any of the pre-tourney games, but thats ok. Canada still has 3 forwards and a defenseman to cut

It's my solemn duty to remind you all that Robbie Fabbri is really really good.

What in Sam hell is Gauthier doing on this team? I've yet to see him successfully receive a pass. He plays like a bobble hockey guy: spin around and wildly whack at the puck.

Dal Colle was pretty underwhelming from what I saw in the pre tournament game yesterday, but man on man I have no idea how Gauthier stayed in his place. He was so bad.

He was also highly thought of for a long time, including being a 1st round pick and being on the team last year, and Team Canada absolutely cares about that stuff as it's continued choice of goalies shows. Just ignore the fact he hasn't improved at all from age 16.

INSPECTAH DECK posted:Just ignore the fact he hasn't improved at all from age 16. Considering his PPG has stayed basically exactly the same, it's safe to say he's actually regressed severely since his draft -1 season. He's two years out from being drafted, if a forward (particularly a centre) isn't putting up at least 1.25ppg in the CHL their chances of making the NHL in any vaguely serviceable capacity are essentially nil. Even Michael McCarron is managing 1.4ppg with the Knights last year and he was laughably bad a season ago.

I know ThinkTank will do it anyways, but if people who watch the games could let me know how Fabbri (and Barbashev) look that would be appreciated.

racist rear end in a top hat aside Deangelo brings the kind of offense most of the US blue line doesn't have and should be on this team. Interested to see what the deal is with Hanifin too -- he's having an alright year at BC. Supposedly he's like a Ryan Murray type.

Aye Doc posted:I feel compelled to watch this to see if my hatred of Virtanen is just and true There's nothing wrong with Virtanen as a prospect and you shouldn't hate him. He plays an exciting, hard nosed style that will at worst leave him as a bottom six guy in the NHL and quite possibly a fan favourite. The only reason to dislike him is because there were far better players on the board at 6th overall.

I'm pretty sure he in fact did not receive an invite at all. Well I'm glad to see that Hockey Canada isn't the only organization with a dumb selection process I guess?
