Havlat isn't a snub. He sucks.

[Shep]

It was a copy and paste.

[Monk]

really like the d and goalies were a given, on forward I wanted to see kunitz make the team, as well as benn.. only forward I really don't like is nash, would've taken giroux or msl over him easily.. the two surprises for me are carter and marleau but I understand why they have them there bcuz of their versatility

[The BBKL Insider]

I like babcocks interview

They used the poor outing of the world juniors to target faster, younger, and players with more stamina than older, slower guys (bob mckenzie used big joe as example - of a guy who liked to slow the play down)

Anytime we play on the larger european ice we should be taking faster guys.

I'd have also taken giroux over carter and st. Louis over smith.

Steve thought he could bring the entire St. Louis roster over Jason Smith. He has no idea what he is talking about.

[Monk]

lol I was about to say that

[The BBKL Insider]

You boys are wacky!

According to mckenzie smith won't even dress, so we minus well bring st louis.

And what do you do if a goalie gets hurt? Dress Hitchcock?

Price gets hurt, go with lu - or vis-versa

I mean let's get real, they only play 10 games. These goalies are use to playing 60-72 games each.

[Arian The Insider]

I think hitchcock wouldn't be a bad backup. he's a big guy.

[hong57]

Honestly i was quite nervous til Tavares was finally named at the end and i did a big fist pump and headed to bed.. then realised they are in alphabetical order..

like taylor hall? wait a minute...

[The BBKL Insider]

Even the guys on tsn said that hall would most likely be on the team if he played for a better team.

[KapG]

Even the guys on tsn said that hall would most likely be on the team if he played for a better team.

So they used the fact that he plays for Edmonton against him? You can't be serious...

I don't even own the kid anymore but he would clearly be fucking DYNAMITE on that big ice...

[Robin Hood]

I like Hall as much as the next guy but he does not deserve be on that team ahead of Giroux, St. Louis, Couture or even guys like Eric Staal and Mike Richards.

[KapG]

Disagree. Hed be better than any plaYer you listed there on ths big ice minus maybe st louis
