Flames players I would like to see there: Johnny, Dougie, Backs, Matty, Fro, Rittich

Gaudreau had his coming out party at the World Championship. After he did so well I was pretty sure he was starting the next season with the Flames rather than the Heat. He should go. Good for him to get used to a longer season.
Tkachuk has a legit excuse coming off his concussion. He says he feels fine but he hasn't gone through hard skating/ contact and there is no guarantee that he would have a clear bill to play.
Riitch should go, would be better if Stockton was in the playoffs, but both him Kylington and especially Anderson should be offering and lobbying to play for their country.
Hamilton is interesting. Does Canada want him without Gio? He wasn't picked for the under 24 team. Is he turning an offer to play for Canada down?
Gio should play for Canada.
