SpeedFlex27 Posted January 2, 2018 Report Posted January 2, 2018 Gonna be a shitty tournament to watch. That & the games being played at 3 in the morning.

SpeedFlex27 Posted January 2, 2018 Report Posted January 2, 2018 With Russia out of the Olympics as well as the KHL I guess we really do have a chance to win. I don't know how good of a change but does anyone care to prognosticate?
Jpan85 Posted January 2, 2018 Report Posted January 2, 2018 Actually games are going to be 6:00 am and 9:00 am central time. blue_gold_84 1

Brandon Posted January 2, 2018 Report Posted January 2, 2018 I'd imagine that team Canada can fill out the roster with former Jets scraps! Kyle Wellwood can run wild at the Olys!!
JCon Posted January 2, 2018 Report Posted January 2, 2018 (edited) Canada's Spengler Cup team just beat Davos and won the tournament. I expect a lot of those players to make the Olympic Team. With the NHL out, I was hoping that they could get some of the CHL players. Edited January 2, 2018 by JCon SPuDS 1

Floyd Posted January 11, 2018 Author Report Posted January 11, 2018 Eric O'Dell and Quinton Howden for Team Canada REPRESENT!!! BOOM!!!
FrostyWinnipeg Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 Like I said send the juniors. Who would have argued with that?

Like enforce an age limit on the tournament? Or just Canada sends the juniors while other teams are free to send pros? Because the team that Canada is sending would dominate the gold medal winning juniors. The best of the AHL/KHL/Euro leagues would stomp any junior team. SPuDS 1

iHeart Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 (edited) wait aren't most of those people on the Hockey Roster AHL players? because Isn't Howden a Moose (or used to be one?) Edited January 11, 2018 by iHeart SPuDS 1

We just had the world juniors, why do we need another? This will be very disappointing. I hope Canada wins but I'm certainly not as interested in this group of players. SPuDS 1

I would rather cancel it but on the other hand it could just be a great warmup for the Olympics. SPuDS 1
Jpan85 Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 Some really good players on that roster. It will surprise people how good the hockey will be. SPuDS 1
