Crosby told Yzerman he won't play if Giroux is on the team. He doesn't like Giroux. He just doesn't.

Rooting for the Swedes myself.

I always root for those Scandinavian teams....obviously after the US, I root for either the Fins or the Swedes.

I usually "root" for the Canadians too, but this year not so much. I'll watch the games and hope Canada wins, but won't be sad if they don't.

If the Swedes, Fins, or US play Canada, I'll root against Canada for sure.

I wanna see Kimmo get a Gold

Giroux Most snubbed. Best player on this list, and better then some on the team.
St.Louis. Is getting older, but still and exceptional player. If you put Kunitz on because of Crosby chemistry then you have to put St.Louis on becuase of Stamkos chemistry.
Ryan. He is having a great year. No reason he shouldnt be on the team.
Hedman. Really bad considering he didn't make a "b" team.
Semin. Embarrising to not make it when there are a few "not as talented" people on the rest of the team
Seabrook. Should have made it, but not as bad as not making it on a less deep team.
Thornton. Is also getting older, but still one of the best passers.
Yandle. Good defenseman, but I understand the questions.

Currently he is yeah but is he gonna be hurt a month from now?

I don't really know what happened to him honestly

EDIT: Looks like he'll be ready to play by the middle of the month

I love an interview I saw on that (maybe it was in the Rivalry show before one of the NBCSports rivalry matchups) where Crosby admits he lost his cool and cost them with that childish move. I love it when he shows what a sore little carbuncle he is. I don't care how good a player he is. Just can't stand him. (And to show I can love a good player who's not a Flyer, love Bergeron, love Stamkos, love Kopitar, love Selanne, love lots of other guys, just hate Sid.)

I don't think any Flyers fan likes Sid. We respect him, but no one likes him. If I were offered his autograph for free, I wouldn't take it.

1. I doubt many people respect him either.
2. I would take it and sell it to a sucker Penguins fan.
