World Cup of Hockey returns in 2016

I think Hutton was a 5th round pick (checking on that, yup #147 in the 2012 entry draft). Canucks found a gem late in that draft, he's going to be the Canucks #1 defender in short order.

i think he might already be the #1 offensive d threat ... just now starting to get #1 pp unit ice time with 4 forwards and last game in the final few minutes he had an amazing shift walking the line with the net empty

Really digging those Team North America jerseys

Maybe. I know one was Button lol

MacLean also suggested that Marchand was the MVP this year. I bet Button didn't go that far.

Some chatter on the cesspool this morning about adding Tanev to the Team Canada defense corps. Call me a homer (I've been called worse), but I don't think the defensive capabilities of Tanev outweigh the offensive contributions that a guy like TJ Brodie brings to the table (and TJ is a pretty good defensive defenseman as well).

LOL. Brodie >>>> Tanev in all facets of the game.

I'm ok with a Tanev Snub.....

Miller on the other hand....

Who did you expect them to cut to take Miller though? Goaltender is a tough spot to crack on the US team.

Schneider

Schneider

Crazy talk. I'd start Schneider (I'm sure that Team USA is going to go with Quick though).

 

[dash]

I guess Quick is Thing 1 and Schneider is Thing 2...

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

same ... hes steady and is a chip for the canucks d to build on ... Ben Hutton could be something extra special though imo

Hutton made the transition from college to the Pro's better than anyone I can think of that wasn't a high pick. Very lucky to have him.

Miller on USA would be like Reimer on Canada. Except less logical.

Anderson is probably the one who usually gets snubbed that deserves a spot the most, but I figure they'll call Bishop.

They already named Bishop, no? I thought they named all 3?

Oh. Sorry, I didn't realise.

Then it's exactly as expected.

Schneider

[Judge Fudge]

Then who is thing 3

The Bishop of Tampa Bay.

 

[Judge Fudge]

Honestly if I was the coach of team US eh ( )

Quick, Bishop, Schinder

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Honestly if I was the coach of team US eh ( )

Quick, Bishop, Schindler

Id have him on my list too

 

[esls79]

Personally I think Tom Wopat would be a better #2 than John Schneider would.
