Saskatchewan Canucks Fan Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 That looks like a very solid first line in your predicted roster. Excited for the team to get picked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nail Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 I don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champions of Nothing Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 Any reasons why you don't? I'm intruiged by his performance so far this year ripping up the OHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nail Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Admittedly I don't know as much about him as I do the players I picked. No one seems to think he'll get picked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champions of Nothing Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 Who are some of the other guys who you would think would be the "last cuts"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nail Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 I found the whole defence hard to pick. I had Murray, Harrington and Petrovic in there at some point. I also had Toffoli, Thomas, Ross, Reinhart, Hamilton and Bournival as hard cuts from the forward group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vomicillin Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Gauthier-Leduc, Kitchton, Dumba, Reinhart, Ferlund, McNeill, Phillips all cut from Team Canada. Roster at 35. http://twitter.com/#!/FarhanLaljiTSN/status/146592485639073792 Thought Dumba and McNeill would at least get through the first round of cuts. If they don't make it to the NHL next year, they WILL be back. Phillips has not played well at camp. Not sure if that has anything to do with Huberdeau out. Many have said Phillips thrives off Huberdeau, but at the start of the season when Huberdeau was with Florida, Phillips managed to play well. One more game tonight and then last cuts tomorrow morning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pears Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Dumba cut... I was looking forward to seeing him destroy people... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champions of Nothing Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 Thought McNiell would make the team, and Phillips would get a long look alongside Huberdeau. Probably opens spots for Thomas and/or Bournival in the bottom 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumpin Jack Flash Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 They cut Gauthier-Leduc? That guy has been ripping up the Q this year like no other, I thought he would have been a lock. Also, where is Tanner Pearson? Do you not see him making the team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Brahma Bull Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I don't know anything about these young guys, but I always get jacked for the WJHC. How are our chances? Are we super stacked (in comparison to previous team canada's) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
