No way toews will be a 4th line center.

This is team Canada, there are no "lines". Just more waves of terror.

Yeah his line would be line two. Just happened to worth out with his line in the 4 spot because I started building based on linemates with chemistry.
Regardless they rolled 4 lines equally in 2010, and I doubt that will change in 2014. I expect all 4 lines to get pretty equal ice time.

Yes this needs to sink in. The number 1 line emerges as the tournament goes on and Babcock plays the best lines more often.

Bouwmeester/Pietrangelo
All players partnered with their linemates and who excel at the NHL level.

Bouwmeester has played all of 20 games in St. Louis.

Voted for Kodos

With the Flames' spectacular start, and the surprising country mergers before the end of the year, the selection committee will just end up sending the entire Flames' roster.

Which is 20 more than anyone else has played together aside from Keith/Seabrook. By Olympics it'll be 40-50 more games...

Am I crazy, or are teams allowed to dress 20 skaters in the olympics?

Tell that to Maginum PEI who seems to believe he is an elite defenseman already.

Methot had a really good year in Ottawa, not surprised that he is on the radar.
Very surprised by the Benn omission. Wonder what the thought process there was.

Yep, which is why I think Letang is an easy choice to go if for nothing else to play top PP minutes and allow Keith-Seabrook to stay off the PP and focus on PK and playing against top line for other team.

I wonder how they decide which equipment managers get to go to the games.
Senority? Pick a name out of a hat? Do they have a mini camp to see which guys can repair a hole in a glove the fastest?

Wonder if the meetings will be broadcast on tsn?
In any case it will be nice to see the players in casual clothes, haven't seen that since Christmas.....
