I would bet that if Ekblad, Reinhart or Bennett had played they would have had them listed as well.
I'm pretty sure Reinhart did play?

Hey kudos to the Oilers for not hosting the NHL lottery simulator this year on their website (or at least I haven't seen it there). Big step for them.

Not in the World Championships. Canada's too stacked for him, the only undrafted 2014 draftees to play were because their teams lacked depth.

Here's Canada's roster:

No points in the Frontenac's last game. No shots on goal and not a single face off win. Not even a single hit. Ended up even in the +/- department

He'd better start putting out or he'll continue to be benched.

How on earth was he a healthy scratch?

He's arguably been the hottest player in the league the last 6 games.

Sorry, I thought you were joking. The whole top line didn't play as they were playing the top team in the league and they cannot move up in the playoff spots, so they rated the top guys

Because his team had a stretch of 3 games in 3 days and the Fronts are locked into 6th so they sat a few players out on the 3rd game.

Rested for playoffs. Kingston had three games in three nights and are locked into their current playoff positioning anyway.

Am I the only one that thought IgiTang knew that Bennett was scratched and was being sarcastic? I thought we were all playing along .

To be honest, even though Sam didn't play I'm pretty sure he somehow deserves an assist on the lone goal by the Frontenacs as he most likely willed the play to happen but he couldn't be awarded a point because of the technicality of not playing.

This kid is determined.
