You know Grapes will be all over Dylan Strome not getting an invite, he is only leading the OHL in scoring.

I hope our Canadian boys can fill the net because I don't have much confidence in the guys between the pipes...

If they're lucky. Fucking Fucale again? Why can't this country produce fucking goaltenders anymore?

Fucale's line with Halifax this season: 3.35 GAA, .886 sv% in 22 games. WOOF.

Exactly.

I hate the politics behind the goalie selection EVERY,

SINGLE,

YEAR.

They just pick a guy who was a high pick and roll with him. :lame:

Morin-Sanheim megapair will make up for any goaltending woes. :D

Don't know much about Comrie but I don't think Fucale is going to steal any games for Team Canada. It will be interesting to see how he plays in his potentially future home arena and how he handles the media. I think this could be the tournament where he could prove his doubters either right or wrong once and for all.

Thoughts on Fucale aside, I find it very strange that they are only inviting 2 goalies. Surely there must be others at least worthy of a try-out.

Surprised that Strome and Jarry didn't get invites to the team.

I can't tell if Gauthier is a "we need role players!" move or a "we don't cut anyone that we've taken before" move. Seems like a stupid move either way. Could also be a "oh my god who else are we going to take from the Q?" move.

FWIW, I've read a few Gauthier-positive articles this season.

Yeah, I heard Bobby Mac on TSN last night saying that while he's not a lock for the team, he's s very good penalty killer and you know those IIHF refs will be making some strange calls on Canada (two minutes for checking too hard etc.)
