Crouse & I dunno

After watching crouse a handful of times this season I'm somewhat surprised he made the team. Definitely underperforming imo. I've thought he looks as tho he has taken a step backwards.

He's playing on a checking line and I have actually thought that line was playing well myself.

ahh, the WJC.. easily the most awaited Christmas gift every year!

Too bad they had to change a perfect formula making the preliminary rounds almost worthless, fuckin idiots.


Anyway, here are my players attending the tournament:

RUS
Kraskovsky
Guryanov (RUS roster not final, could be cut due to incoming suspension)
Svechnikov

didn't call Letunov for whatever reasons.. :RussiansBeingRussians:

USA
Belpedio
Werenski

disappointed they didn't call Roslovic, bah. Some bad omissions on the US roster. Hoping they will pay for it.

FIN
Vehvilainen
Saarijarvi
Tuulola
Niku
Kalapudas
Lammikko

Go Finland Go!

SWE
Lagesson

how can you have Anton Karlsson above Kovacs is beyond me

CZE
Zacha

SUI
Rod
Malgin


that makes for a total of 15 players, or 14 if Guryanov gets cut.


eligible but not available (NHLers or injured):

Larkin

Trade me saarijarvi

it's entirely possible, make it happen

just checked out last year thread viewtopic.php?f=5&t=11820&hilit=U20

I had 15 guys in it, and this year after the Guryanov cut I only have 14, disappointing!

Last time great tourneys for Larkin and Gavrikov, this time hoping for Vehvilainen and Zacha.

Jesus fuck, a stupid Swiss tried to take out Nylander's head and certainly took him out of the ice. What a shame.

Hopefully they won't allow WIlliam back any time soon.

Fuck me. Guess I won't be watching this tourney.

And his team just beat your team. Oh Can......oh wait sorry

Oh, say can you see,
By the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed
At the twilight's last gleaming?

I would take Wilson over Lowry right about now lol

Canada is so full of their own shit.

Not a big fan of the crop of defensemen. Usually Canada's strong point, but can't say they were very impressive today. Also, glad blackwood back after game 2. MacDonald was pretty meh; really struggles with point shots - D need to clear the front better, but still, not solid goaltending.
