Any chance any of the Canuck players back out of it and decide to take the time to rest and heal up? Yeah, I am looking at young Quinn Hughes.

I want the Canucks selected to back out of it to heal up for a playoff push. Unless they are traded beforehand and then they can attend.

I realy hope Quinn Hughes decides to back out with the hand injury. Seems like an awful lot ask of a player to go play with an injury.

With our luck one or both of Pettersson and Miller will receive serious, season ending injuries.

I'm so looking forward to seeing some good hockey. Too bad Canada is leaving their stud goalie home. Maybe Binnington pulls a Petro and we can get Logan Thompson up to speed. Will be interesting if they take Doughty or Tanev. Maybe Brandon Montour or Mackenzie Weegar?
They really needed to find a spot for one or both of Macklin or young Connor. Their skill level is off the charts.
The one stupid thing about this tournament is it should include the Czechs. Very easy to make it a 5 Nations Cup. Full RR tourney. 1st place bye into the final. 2 and 3 play to see who meets Canada in the final. 4 and 5 are eliminated.

Oh good idea. Include Czechs. There are 21 skaters and 7 goaltenders in the entire league who are Czechs. That team would get blown out.
If you want 5 teams it should be Canada, USA, Russia, Sweden, Finland, and fuck the politics.

I’ll say this, why the fuck isn’t Scheiffle on the team?
Regarding Bedard and Celebrini, they got some growing to do. Bedard I think they could have gambled on. I can see him thriving at a tournament like that. But can understand the reasoning.

I have little interest in it, as without Russia it would be hard to say it’s a best in best. But I hope it helps sell hockey and all that

It would be a three team event. So inviting Russia at this time would be a poor idea.
