Kinda iffy on Power. Depending on what his role would be, I would think guys like Weegar, Rielly, Theodore, or Dunn have a better body of work on display.

No Dougie is dumb
And Canada’s goaltending has seen better days. One of Oettinger or Demko may not make the US squad but would start for Canada (Hellebuyck and Swayman being the locks)
workthrowawaybro
Are they holding a selection camp for this tournament? Would love to see more candidates in net (Blackwood, Levi, etc)
That-Stage-1088
Petriangelo. Dougie Hamilton. Theodore. Weegar.
Edit: Burns, Rielly. I’d probably give these guys looks before Power.
hugentnopkins
Obviously an insane line-up, but I wonder if they take someone like O’Reilly or Nugent-Hopkins instead of Lafreniere? I’ve been rooting for Laf and it’s great to see him rise up – and if he continues the way he has he’ll probably be on the team – but if he falters they might go with a more veteran guy. But then I’m just an armchair GM, so what do I know?
northernpace
I just hope to see McDavid and Crosby skate on a line together, for a few shifts at least, even if it’s just on the PP. We’ve been robbed too long of those two playing together internationally.

Everyone forget about Theodore?

This is the weakest Canada has been in net for a long time. I still don’t think it will matter. Canada wins gold.

This was asked on the USA one, but I didn’t see an answer. Who is projecting these?
Quick599
No Nick Suzuki?

I’m here for a MacKinnon Crosby line
discofrislanders
I say this as as Islanders fan, there’s absolutely no need for Dobson when you already have Bouchard and Makar
homebroo
Did Quebec hold a referendum to stop producing elite goaltenders? What the fuck
But-Seriously-Though
Shocked to see nobody has been puzzled by the Lafreniere pick. That to me is by far the weirdest choice.
jb__19
Including Lafrienere in this is wild. There’s probably 30 active Canadian forwards better than the guy.
MocDcStufffins
I wanna see this PP. Crosby, McDavid, MacKinnon, Bedard, Makar.
Chad2Badd
Seeing Nashville beside Stammer’s name hurts ☹️☹️☹️
Dice7
I think MacKenzie Weegar could make a surprise appearance.
StarlightSummoner
I’d love to see a Mackinnon-McDavid-Barzal line at some point even if it’s unrealistic. Imagine the pace they would play at and the insane displays of speed.
WillsyWonka
Where is Suzuki.
seannifer
It’s cool seeing Thomas get some love
Difficult_Tangelo500
The rumours swirling around is that Crosby and Mcdavid were on a line together during some summer training sessions and were entirely untouchable, borderline scoring at will against the best players in the world.
Zigotons
Wyatt Johnston snub
AntonioMS17
Can’t fucking wait to see McDavid and MacKinnon cook on the same line together.
maxalligator
The Canada team is so stacked it’s essentially cheating lol
Euphoric__Dot
The thing that stands out to me between this group and Team USA is just how fast and dynamic they are
McDavid, MacKinnon, Makar, Barzal, Point
They’re not necessarily more talented but they are more dynamic, that being said Binnington should be nowhere near Team Canada especially after his showing at the World Championships a few months ago
xtzferocity
I’m curious to watch Robert Thomas, can’t say I see too much Blues hockey so he’s definitely one I’m excited to watch.
KingKasby
McDavid McKinnion and Point would be the fastest hockey line in history
Sweet-Palpitation473
Bergeron should be on this list…
Yes I’m still sad
No I won’t get over it
lurkymclurkface321
Me looking at the USA roster: “That’s a good team”
Me looking at the Canada roster: “That’s fucking terrifying”

My boy Point made it in nice

Not seeing Tampa Bay next to Stamkos just feels wrong, dirty and weird

No Suzuki?

The-Reddit-Giraffe
I’m not sure about the defence. I feel there’s better players not there. Theodore, Weegar, Pietrangelo should be on this team
xen0m0rpheus
Sam Montembeault has proven himself at international events. Wouldn’t be surprised to see him as the 3rd goalie.
thedeepfake
Adin Hill huh?
ScotiaTailwagger
I fucking love everyone in that lineu-…..
*Jordan Binnington*
Sigh…….
UNisopod
Absurd forward group, very good defense, OK goaltending
ph1shstyx
I’d take ROR over Bedard or Lafreniere any day, just for his defensive play and F/O stats, let alone everything else he contributes.
zetterbeardz
I like Laf as much as the next guy but he’s not making this team over RNH or ROR.
TheHizobane
Good god Canada’s goalies are shit. Great forwards and defense tho
Weak_Sentence_3297

*Sees MacKinnon-McDavid-Crosby-Marchand and Makar jump over the boards*
