Khomutov was either left off or with the injuries in Albany, Khomutov was needed and was not allowed to play.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Any link?

If true, pretty happy to see Yemelin on there since I didn't expect he would make it.

 

[Jason MacIsaac]

Central Scouting is my link

 

[BuppY]

Dimitri Vorobiev made it.. great news!!! if your a Leaf fan.

 

[leafaholix*]

Dimitri Vorobyev...

 

[reffree]

No Radulov ?

 

[BuppY]

Its central f'ing scouting......I did the same thing for Finland and Czech Republic....I will do it for Sweden in a second also.

 

[Jason MacIsaac]

How can you cut Radulov and Khomutov. One lit up the QMJHL and the other playing well in AHL despite his minutes. I guess the coaching staff really does hate players who leave for North America for junior hockey.

 

[SwOOsh*]

No Radulov is a joke. They could have had a nice scoring line with Radulov-Yunkov-Voloshenko

I am guessing this is his penalty for playing in the QMJHL with Quebec.

 

[thestonedkoala]

Minnesota has three guys on the team...one on Team USA too WOOT!

 

[BlueBleeder]

Nice, Pervyshin made the team.

 

[Speed Demon]

do you guys think that this team, with Ovechkin and Malkin, can beat Canada's powerhouse?

 

[letterH]

No Roman Tesliuk? i thought he was going to be there for sure, especially since he knows the team canada players so well.

 

[Jason MacIsaac]

do you guys think that this team, with Ovechkin and Malkin, can beat Canada's powerhouse?

Depends on defense and goaltending. I think Russia score just as much if not more then Canada but if they don't have a hot goaltender it will be tough.

 

[Jacques Plante]

I just can't take the Russians lightly. They always play Canada tough. Even though their goaltending is often questioned, they seem to always come clutch agaisnt Canada, as does the rest of the team. One thing Canada has in it's favour is the way the Pools have been set up. In theory, Russia and USA are going to battle it out between eachother to get to the Gold medal game.

Pool A
USA
Czech Rep.
Switzerland
Russia
Belarus

Pool B
Canada
Finland
Slovakia
Sweden
Germany

Definitly.

 

[montreal]

This can't be the roster, as there are 28 players and you can only take 22. This could be players going to the camp though.

 

[Senator Stanley]

This isn't the final roster. Maybe this is the guys in the running, but there are to many players on that list. So when will this team be finalised? I am anxious to see if Lyamin and Nikulan made it.

EDIT- Damn, you beat me to it.

 

[X-SHARKIE]

I hope Lyamin makes it !


BTW. This QMJHL stuff is an outrage! First Bernier is left off from Canada, Hennessy from America, and now Radulov not going for Russia?

This is nuts. I watch the Q almost every friday and it's great hockey.

Well Russia didn't impress much on paper in 2002 and 2003 ...
