Malcolm Subban over Laurent Brossoit? Subban let in some real softies. Looks like we'll have goalie problems again this year
- ILoveLamp

Ya that's a crock.
Brossoit was the much better goalie.

We had a hometown kid, that was the last cut from the team. Derrick Walser was the last cut one year, and stated that he hoped the team lost, It ruined his NHL career, only 79 game I think..Anyway, He is an bumhole in real life as well. So, you must be very careful what you say as you are leaving the camp as well. He is still in europe playing and this was 17 years ago. Right after he was named CHL d man of the year.

Jason Botterill made 3 teams, and collected a gold medal each time.

His NHL career was not exactly noteworthy.

There are no guarantees.

That's right.

Corrado just got cut but he's already on the short list for the 2018 Olympic team.

I guess they felt they had enough offensive d-men. It's not always the best players that get invited, they go by team needs, and in some cases connections.
- Feeling Glucky?


perhaps they are taking a disproportionately large number of defensive defensemen this year - because they know that the goaltender that they "have to select" will stink.

From what I heard, he got cut for purely financial reasons.

They knew if he made Team Canada, you'd just get everyone buying his jersey this year, and saving it until 2018 to wear.

By cutting him, they have ensured higher jersey sales in six years.

Seriously, that was the only reason he was cut.

lol no poop, whats he supposed to say "meh i dont really give a (frank)"?

i'll believe the president cares when and if he introduces legislature forcing the owners and players to come to a resolution

- Dozzer


He said exactly what he was suppose to say. I just find it hilarious that some people seem to think he gives a rats ass about hockey rather than the economical impacts a lockout has and that what he said about the lockout actually matters.

anyways, regardless on who made the team, go canada!

be good to see some meaningful hockey.. getting tired of watching the knights win over and over and over again lol

Except Laurent Brossoit. He played great against the Russians and considering how horrible Malcolm Subban can be, they should have brought him.

The NHL might generate 3.3 billion on it's own but that doesn't include all the other money that other business' generates around it.
