Not directed at you, I just hate the mindset (if true) that a player being a few months older trumps another player who is clearly better. Doesn't make much sense to me.

Hopefully things change after this year and they just start selecting the best team based on skill rather than their birth certificate, and possibly other lame excuses (favoritism, race, etc)
This is exactly what this same ish group at team Canada did with Makar. He was the best player on the ice the year he played, and they played him about 5 minutes a night - their way of sending a message about choosing NCAA over CHL.
Start at the top and tear this arrogant, vile group down. Please
