Team Canada - Injury Replacement Picks

[powderjunkie]

If someone goes down (or in Stamkos case doesn't make it back) who is your pick to replace them? I don't think there is as much debate with defence and goalies aside from handedness, but I was curios who I would want to replace each forward. I thought I might consider E Staal/Thornton/Neal or even Seguin/Skinner, but I could never get past Giroux, Richards and St Louis.

Forwards:

Jamie Benn - St Louis
Patrice Bergeron - M. Richards
Jeff Carter - Giroux
Sidney Crosby - Giroux
Matt Duchene - St Louis
Ryan Getzlaf - M Richards
Chris Kunitz - M Richards
Patrick Marleau - St Louis
Rick Nash - St Louis
Corey Perry - St Louis
Steve Stamkos - St Louis
Patrick Sharp - M Richards
John Tavares - Giroux
Jonahtan Toews - M Richards


Defencemen:

RHD: Boyle
LHD: Giordano (#homer - though he did get a call from Stevie Y)


Goaltenders:

Harding - so much experience as a back up, I think he'd do well on the long-shot he's called into action.

I think that if Stamkos can't make it, Neal will get the invite. Anyone else on forward and I think it will be St Louis and Giroux.

I think that 'one-shot' scorer is an important role.

I think St. Louis not making the cut was a miss by the selection committee so I'd hope he goes if someone gets hurt.
