Was he hurt? Was he invited to the camp and last cut?

Sounds like with size and speed he could have fit in as a PK / 4th line guy
My guess is you will get the usual "politics" BS that people trot out when their guy doesn't make Team Canada.

I don't think it means Poirier is crap, as Team Canada is an insanely tough team to make.
