Remaining forwards for Canada:

Comtois - Glass - Tippett
Lafreniere - Suzuki - Leason
Veleno - Hayton - Studnicka
Anderson-Dolan - Frost - Entwistle
Formenton - Bowers - Vilardi

They need to cut two players. Formenton will be one of the cuts. Bolded players are injured. I am assuming at least one of the injured LA guys will be available - probably both.

The only report on Formenton is a knee injury and out for tournament . Hopefully not ACL or it could potentially hamper his elite speed long term

Brutal. Dorion mentioned a scenario where Formenton could play for canada and stay here, now that's not even happening.

Sucks about JBD. Really was hoping for him to make this team. Any chance he gets back in if there's an injury? (i have no idea how this stuff works...)

Yes there is a chance. There is a deadline to set the roster re IIHF WJC rules but that date has not been reached yet. Anything can happen

I meant early this season before reaching his game limit to be be sent back to junior. I read a quote where Formenton could have been on our roster still but also loaned to team canada.
Happened with Lazar years ago. I remember him playing with McDavid and then lighting it up.

Oh ok, yeah that would have been possible.

Team Canada really shouldn’t play the locks in games against usports. Completely meaningless
