The PG Cougars forward will be heading over to Russia with Team Canada.[/QUOTE
The 5 Ontario players I know who will be playing for Canada are Tavares, Gagner, Doughty, Legein and Josh Godfrey (who could surprise a lot of people). I believe there are more Ontario based players who will be playing for Canada but these are the names I have heard so far. Keep in mind they are only taking 26 players and are not holding a tryout camp.
Anyone else shocked not to see Stamkos on the roster?

Why? Cause he has a french name?Claude Giroux and Ty Wishart
The Habs should've take the offensive Wizard Claude Giroux last year when they had the chance instead of the enigma David Fischer...

I'm surprised Mark Katic isn't there as well, and Couture.
the 4 canadian games on canadian soil are in winnipeg, red deer, edmonton, and vancouver i beleive. the vancouver game is at g.m place.
No because he is an offensive Wizard and will be a star in the NHL.
Can you say the same about Fischer being a future star in his position ?! He looks more like a suspect than a prospect at this moment. Don't think that your smart by saying this comment.
I know that Giroux is not a "Québecois"
Giroux is the best Player in the LHJMQ at this moment and I've watch him play over 15 times this year in Gatineau. He will win the scoring title next year, you can mark my words. This guy is all about heart and Character. He never takes a shift off. Add theses attributes to his elite set of skills and you got an offensive dynamo like Claude Giroux. He was my pick last year for the Habs and still think the Habs made a big mistake by not taking him.
He was picked to be in Team Canada before players like Francois Bouchard, Mathieu Perreault and James Sheppard (from the LHJMQ also) who are very good players too. It tells you alot about how good Claude Giroux is. Shame that the Habs pass on him.
