Olympics: 2014 — Canada Roster Discussion (Part X)

How much pk time does Carter play? Because Getzlaf plays on the Ducks pk quite a bit.

Currently he's PKing 1:45 a game compared to Getzlaf's 2:00.

Though I don't find PK TOI to be a reliable indicator of defensive prowess. For example, Claude Giroux PKs quite a bit and is quite effective, but is merely average defensively 5v5.

Those list were made before Neal has gone white hot and moved to Crosby's wing.

Yes, one game changes everything.

Neal was playing excellent hockey before his suspension too. The lists were made during his suspension. Take it for what it is. I posted earlier this morning that I'd like to hear from TSN whether the thought process has changed re: Neal and Kunitz. For the record Neal would, IMO, be a much better addition to TC than Kunitz, especially if Stamkos can't go. He is, however, undisciplined and at times dirty, which would be my overriding concern with him.
