If Weegar didn’t play for Calgary he’d have a shot, but since he does, they’ll name Doughty. I’d bet dollars to donuts on that.

I'd rather Weegar kick back on a beach for a week.

Sure but he wants to go and deserves to go...I also want Canada to win, especially if he's there

IMO Tanev should be named to the team. He's the best defensive defenseman of the bunch.

That is two good captains for McDavid to learn from so he can be a good leader on the team he goes to when he leaves Edmonton.

It'll take a while for it to sink in. He won't come back and immediately apply what he learned in Edmonton. He'll leave town, see the totally different atmosphere with his new organization and things will sink in.

I had a brain fart and meant to type in Makar. But yeah he actually is pretty vocal in the room but to learn from Sid is very valuable.

Have a Canada2 and a Team Yahtzee...put all of the top players that otherwise arent participating and put their names in a Yahtzee Cup or one of those Bingo-Roller things and have them compete.

Hell...make their coaching position a fan lottery!

If you're going to have a gimmicky tournament dont half-ass it! Always whole-ass! Always! Really lean into it!
Do you include Russians?

Of course! Why not? They're not representing 'Russia' or it's official state interests or beliefs!

They're representing the Island of Misfit Toys!

This shall be their Jersey Logo! See? I've done most of the work for them!

Yelling is being nice.
It was more screaming or even more accurately described as "shrieking".

lmao exactly. It was a childish temper tantrum more than a leader being pissed off.

Why does nhl.com have a picture of every teams captain, except for Canada? I am so sick of having McDingleberry shoved down our throats.
