Canada could ice two gold medal contending teams; especially if Sam Gagner, James Shepperd, David Perron, Jordan Staal and Jonathan Toews were permitted to play.

LETS GO SIMMONDS!He may surprise you if you get a chance to see him.
Its not very likely hell make the team, MAYBE as a role playing checking line type guy. I'd be pretty surprised if him or Mathias makes this team, let alone both. I think mathias has the tools to make the team but he wasn't on the superseries roster and I think he is going to get politic'd out.

I doubt the Oilers will let Gagner play he's been a pretty stellar contributor to them this year. His shootout numbers alone are a reason to keep him playing especially since the Oilers have been in 8 shootout this year. But that team will be killer with or without Gagner.

Did the IAAF ever pass the rule that was suggested where Canada would get to host the World Junior's every other year? I heard some talk about it but was never sure if this went thru. Also where are World Juniors this year?
Yes it did/. It is in Ottawa next year.

Every year I get more and more annoyed that I can't watch this tournament in the US.Team Canada is going to be absolutely frightening.
That sucks. If I'm not mistaken in Canada even if you are at work you can watch the Live feed on TSN.ca.

Ya, you can already buy tickets for it**only option at the moment is to get packages for every game in the tournament (including the medal rounds) which are in ~1k range if I recall correctly.http://www.2009wjhc.com/ is the site, but doesn't come up for me for some reason.

Well to be fair to my 0-2 record, I said Matthias was good enough and would get politic'd out, and said simmonds could make it as a 4th line energy guy which he did .... cmon thats gotta be good enough for 1-2 .... half point each lol? :)Can't believe Mclean got cut, hes been the best player in the OHL thus far imo

If this guy has ANY talent in the NHL, he's going to make some nice endorsement deals."That's right, it's me - Mister Hockey! I'm here to tell you about..."
