Yup, Just like Harrington last year. They like their steady, consistent d-men.

[NewHabsEra]

Thats a gold team winner!!

Drouin wont desapoint you I guarentee!

I'd be more inclined to go with "Can't teach size".

I thought Wotherspoon was pretty steady, so kudos to him too.

Dont know why they even invited Brossoit. He did nothing wrong but was cut anyway.

Hopefully Ryan Murphy doesnt hurt us too bad, but I shudder to think what he is going to look like against the Russians.

At least it can't be worse than Dumba during the super series. Probably.

It's ridiculous you make these comments. You see them more than the coach?

Mark Masters ‏@markhmasters
Ryan Murphy can finally breathe easy ... In his 3rd try he's finally made Canada's jr team

so he is in.

Exactly.
However he was a standout on the PK (not only this week, but in the SSS as well). His size/strength and penalty killing ability were in my opinion what put him on the team over Corrado.

The whole team's been confirmed. It's a couple pages back.

[Taco Fingerhat]

Ya I'm bummed that Corrado was left off the team, but aside from that, I love the roster! It's quite apparent that Canada is employing a run and gun kind of team, and I think that's exactly whats needed on international ice. Everytime the World Jr's goes back to Europe, it always feels like the game is called much tighter than it is in North America (regardless of the refs nationalities) so we should be seeing a lot less penalties from this crop of players than years past.

This season in the OHL, no person who's seen them both could claim Corrado is more than margianlly better defensively, let alone significantly.

Canuck fans aren't used to have a good prospects so when they have a decent one, they go overboard.

Thanks for that!

[GuillaumeLetsundress]

People need to stop whining about Murphy, he is a great hockey player! They have enough steady back there with Hamilton, reinhart, oullette, Harrington and wortherspoon! He makes stuff happen and is a joy to watch, will be magical on the point on the pp

[Faidh ar Rud Eigin]

Apparently all players have recieved Russian visas. In other words, any of them can be called back.

[BruinsBtn]

Murphy did have some pretty sick rushes.

Lefty so not a threat to the coach's pet.

[xIsle]

Two days ago, Stephane Leroux from RDS considered Mark McNeil a lock.
He was wrong.

[LiquidSnake]

I dont think it's THAT big of a think that Corrado is off. Sucks because I would have cared more as a Canuck fan.

Either way, go Canada. Win this ****ing time.

This. It's amazing how much Murphy gets crapped on. He's a fantastic talent.

One of Drouin, Lipon or Camara took his spot.

I'm still expecting some sort of goaltending collapse. It's just tradition at this point.

[Biggs21]

has dumba done anything since the draft to raise his status?

[Destroyer100]

i can't wait to see Murphy show up all the haters on here.

[Caballo Blanco]

Good to see Antonio Camara on the team.
