Did Chia just keep Hamilton off the initial roster because he didn't want to name 3 Flames? There's no logical way he doesn't make the team.

I would suggest they'll name Keith, Weber, Doughty, and Pietrangelo today.

Subban, Vlasic, Gio, Brodie, Burns, and Seabrook will all be in conversation for the last 3 spots that get announced in June.
Assuming they do the same thing as last time, an even number of righties and lefties, at least one of Gio or Brodie should make it.

Righties: Doughty, Weber, Pietrangelo, Subban? Burns?

Lefties: Keith, Brodie?, Vlasic? Giordano?

Reinhart and Bennett both have a shot at cracking that forward group, yeah?

What about players being drafted this year like Matthews? Or do they have to have played an NHL game?

Matthews may have a shot. The Finland coach said they are considering Laine.

McDavid looks like he's thinking "I hate this, I should be on Team Canada".

Don't think so. TheHockeyNews projected Laine to make Team Finland.

Ryan Murphy and Morgan Reilly over Hamilton? That's a total joke.

100% agree, but I also agree he's better than the other two.

This discussion about Nugent Hopkins is ridiculous.

I don't think it's a slam dunk he has a better career than Hamilton. I think he's a good defenseman but he hasn't separated himself like Ekblad has.
