So far we have Huberdeau, RNH, Scheifele, Strome, Ritchie, Hudon, Jenner, Danault, Rielly, Hamilton, Ouellet, Harrington and Subban as locks for the team. I also think we can pencil in MacKinnon as the 13th forward. He has done really well. Added to all the hype surrouding the kid, no way he doesn't make it to the team.
Spott has mentioned he believes in intimidation at the junior level. So, even though Wilson hasn't played all that well overall, I'd venture to say he's pretty much a lock to make this team. Graovac has done really well on the PK and creating chances offensively with his physical play. I'd say he's in as well. McNeill has done well for himself. All 3 should be part of the checking line.
I think Shinkaruk gets the nod. Older than Drouin. Hunter also has experience at the U18 and has played well at camp.
On D, Rielly, Hamilton, Ouellet and Harrington are locks. As for the stay-at-home guys I think Reinhart has done a better job than Wotherspoon. I think we can put him on the 3rd pair. Then all of Corrado, Sproul and Pouliot have played well. Murphy has had his moments but overall I don't think he has been as good as the other kids. Hard to tell at this time whether or not Spott sticks with him. Ultimately I think he does even though Murphy wasn't the best in camp. Murphy gets the 7th d-man spot and one spot is left for either Sproul, Pouliot or Corrado
Rielly - Hamilton
Ouellet - Harrington
Reinhart - X

Coming in Subban was a lock as the n'1 guy. Paterson has pretty much taken the 2nd spot with a great camp so far. He has been good as well for Saginaw this year. Then it's up to Brossoit and Binnington to fight for the extra spot. Right now I'd have Brossoit in.
Anyone know if Pierre McGuire will be calling any WJ games for TSN this year or is he still under contract with NBC? Anyone else miss his commentary and his crazy enthusiasm? haha

Front page of their website right now is Beauvillier being cut from the team. There's a video titled ''Beauvillier retourne à la maison'' on the right side.
I mean it's not like it's should be some shock he was cut, no one had him on the roster. He's a 6th round pick...

I think RDS followed him since the beginning of the camp 'cause he's from the region. I don't think it's a big deal.

Yea, cause I watched the show with Norman Flynn, he was pretty neutral and he didn't seem to be bothered by Beauvillier being cut, he's not as bad as Gaston Therrien, now that's something.
I think the race for the left winger is gonna be won by Drouin, that chemistry with Mack could be useful.

He's a very one dimensional player, good size and skating but plays in a straight line and has no creativity. No way he should have even been invited with this year's team invite Mantha instead.
