Who are some top NHL players that were not picked to play in the World Junior?
Seachd said:World Junior history isn't my strong point, but, at the time, I think Mike Comrie deserved to go. Now, he deserves nothing.
I don't think so.I think he played when he was 17 and had a four goal game.But he had problems with Dave King(who did'nt think Mario played defense) and he benched him from time to time.Mario soured on playing for the nat juniors after that and declined an invitation to play next year,instead concentrating on becoming the greatest junior player of all time by scoring 282 points in 70 games.Laurentides said:Im not 100% sure about this but I think that they cut Mario Lemieux back in the days cause they said he was too slow...
When you want to win you don't pick Todd Bertuzzi.canucksfan said:Bertuzzi never played

for good reasonbonefizzle said:daniel cleary cut 3 years in a row by canada
Kugel said:kris beech got cut and he was supposed to be one of the best players in the CHL that year......ALso brett Lindros got cut from that 1995 Dream Team. not too many superstars got cut....just alot of good junior players like beech.
oh i thought of another and that would be horton, he got invited late last year i think and he thought that they didnt want him on the team, he was only invited casue someone got hurt.
