All those Saskies, love it!

 

[SpectreFire]

Ideal outcome would be Mike Smith getting in the net somehow and knocking Canada out with some hilarious gaffe.

Carter on the team and Couture not is a joke.

Couture's injured.

 

[Curufinwe]

Kunitz lol.

 

[Red_Man]

Kunitz and Nash made it? LOL

No gold for Canada.

 

[Zod the Bear]

Whelp.

 

[Razorskin]

Marleau!

 

[GSG Flash]

Fuck, I didn't want Kunitz

I'm not liking this forward group so far

 

[apocalidiot]

Nash eh?

 

[yyzjohn]

Nash is so fucking shit and he makes the team?

 

[ZeroGravity]

NO MARTY ST. LOUIS

FUCK YOU YZERMAN

 

[SCHUEY F1]

St.Louis will demand to be traded ASAP

 

[OriginofHysteria]

No Martin St. Louis? Woww.

 

[Red_Man]

Couture's injured.

I forgot, it's going to be about 6 weeks or so? Takes him right out of it, that sucks.

No Martin St. Louis? Woww.

Nash over him is pure garbage.

 

[KingHenrik30]

No Marty!
No Giroux!

Crazy!

 

[MeBecomingI]

No Marty but they took Nash? What the fuck? Not exactly pleased with this team at all.

 

[A Serious Man]

Would've taken Neal or St. Louis over Kunitz and Nash but I'm a filthy American so what do I know?

 

[Socreges]

Nash, Marleau, Kunitz?? Eggghhhh

 

[Razorskin]

NO MARTY ST. LOUIS

FUCK YOU YZERMAN

St. Louis is too small

need more mastodons like Nash

 

[Cake Boss]

No StLouis and No Giroux but Kunitz and Nash makes it.

WORST TEAM EVER.

Congrats on the olympic gold Finland.

 

[Buba Big Guns]

Kuntiz and Nash over Giroux and MSL.....Turin all over again.

 

[RC]

No Marty but they took Nash? What the fuck? Not exactly pleased with this team at all.

Haha, wait, why I'm I laughing?

Hamhuis!!!!

 

[Red_Man]

Can't wait for Kunitz to do jack shit in the tournament

 

[MeBecomingI]

Haha, "best group of players we could."

No, no you didn't.

 

[GSG Flash]

Yeah, this is a horrible forward group. I can't decide what forward group is worse, Canada's or the States'.

 

[calder]

Surprised at no Giroux and St. Louis.

 

[RC]

Getting the aroma of Turin all over again.

 

[TUSR]

What the fuck

 

[Curufinwe]

Kuntiz and Nash over Giroux and MSL.....Turin all over again.

Why would they want the NHL's 1st and 3rd leading Canadian scorers (3rd and 4th by PPG) from the past four years?

Canada has this one in the bag.

 

[zroid]

#7thPlace

 

[Red_Man]

Yeah, this is a horrible forward group. I can't decide what forward group is worse, Canada's or the States'.

Not even close, but still some really weird decisions here. I can't understand how they leave St. Louis off.

 

[Cake Boss]

Cant believe Bobby Ryan didnt make Team Canada.

 

[Samyy]

I can't, this is too much.
Olympic hockey management is a joke.

 

[lamaroo]

Can't wait to watch all these Canadians display their intangibles, block shots, battle in the corners, and dump the puck in.

 

[Vyse24]

7 Rangers made Olympic teams: Callahan, Stepan and McDonagh for USA, Nash for Canada (which I don't get), Lundqvist and Hagelin for Sweden, and Zuccarello for Norway.

 

[calder]

Crosby better really appreciate the knowing, familiar handjobs from Kunitz in the dorm.

 

[Cake Boss]

Can't wait to watch all these Canadians display their intangibles, block shots, battle in the corners, and dump the puck in.

Yeah Rick Nash got you covered on that front.

 

[KingHenrik30]

In all fairness, Nash DID score 2 goals last night……

 

[calder]

Some of you guys are either joking or really don't follow hockey nearly as much as I thought you did.

Don't go crazy over-analyzing the 13th forward for the love of Christ.

 

[yyzjohn]

I just looked for Nash in the top 200 scorers in the NHL, I can't find him I think NHL.com might be having issues.

 

[Socreges]

Only 3 of the 8 D are returning. That's surprising somehow.

Anyway... HAMHUIS!... will never touch the ice.

 

[yankeehater]

G has 20 more points then Nash this year.

 

[Buba Big Guns]

As imperfect as the forwards are, the defence is hot fya.

I dont think they'll win gold due to how fucking good the competition goalies are.

 

[Socreges]

G has 20 more points then Nash this year.

Giroux is a separatist.

 

[Razorskin]

I bet they had Neal over Giroux and St. Louis anyway.

 

[Jayhawk]

Six of the eight defenseman on Team Canada have more points than Rick Nash. WHY IS HE ON THE TEAM?

 

[Curufinwe]

I bet they had Neal over Giroux and St. Louis anyway.

I think St Louis is more of a snub than Giroux who has to blame himself for having a really bad October.

 

[KingHenrik30]

G has 20 more points then Nash this year.

He's played 15 more games than Nash, it would be bad if he didn't

 

[Entropia]

No Staal?
No St. Louis?
No Giroux?
Kunitz?
Benn?
Carter?
Smith?

Spoiler

admittedly Canada's goaltending situation is pretty dire

Six of the eight defenseman on Team Canada have more points than Rick Nash. WHY IS HE ON THE TEAM?

The intangibles, man!

 

[brucewaynegretzky]

WHAT THE HELL CANADA?!?!

 

[A Serious Man]

I bet they had Neal over Giroux and St. Louis anyway.

I would. He has almost as many points as Giroux (and more goals) and has played almost 20 fewer games. He's playing pretty fucking good right now.
