Sutter made it sound like they would probably make the cuts today after discussing it with the coaching staff.

I don't like preseason games. Pre-tourney games are even worse IMO.

Both McKenzie and Ferraro have now mentioned how much the Americans are going to miss Sieloff.

With no Gillies, it's hard to care about this game. Much better crowd for this one at least.

Why? He can't be a very good defenceman. I mean, he hardly scored any points in Juniors.

After watching McDavid again I'm all in favour of trading all our vets so we can properly tank next season.

Canada cut Shinkaruk (VAN) and Severson (NJD).

Shinkaruk knew it too. Just watch his postgame interview, he already had his bags packed.

Those two will probably end up having spent more time flying to and from Sweden than they were actually in the country.

Really stupid and jerky move to have the guys fly all the way over just to get cut. Figure it out over here.

Ekblad is going to be the best defenseman of the tourney for sure. He is the guy the flames need this year and McDavid looks amazing and worth whatever it takes to get. Wow

Guys have said they wanted extra chance to prove themselves in extra games.

Plus is it much worse than bringing 10 extra guys to calgary?

The other option is these guys get no shot at TC I am sure they prefer the current method over that.

Shinkaruk cut?


Good, he wasn't playing well at all.

I watched the USA/Sweden game... and damn, that Eichel kid looks amazing.

When the Oilers inevitably get McDavid, because they will still suck, I hope the Flames can get a shot at Eichel

Flying back to Sweden tomorrow. Too bad the games are being played down in Malmö or I would've been in attendance for a bunch of them

It is exciting to see this McDavid kid continue to live up to the hype. Hard to envision what team will get him but if there was ever a year to tank since 2005, next season sounds like the one. A line up built around McDavid, Monahan, Baertschi, Ekblad, and Brodie would be pretty sweet.
