Is there an all tournament team or something like that?
Edit: Nevermind found it. Nothing for Gabe.

Finished tied for 2nd in team scoring with Brindley behind Turd Cutter Gauthier (which is what I'm calling him until he no longer has his rights held by the Flyers.)
Interesting how he keeps on outscoring his line mates despite being carried by them.
On the real, Leonard is a f***ing animal. Smith had his best game of the tournament in the GM game but was pretty ass otherwise.
I'm surprised he hasn't been signed yetLooks to be (twice?) undrafted as he turned 19 in February.
I think Fortescue had a good tournament, too. He made a few mistakes, as all the kids do, but otherwise was a solid defender and even contributed offensively.
Watch them trade him for a rental at the deadlineThanks. All done. I already bought a Perreault jersey.

Canada is looking pretty thin next year. Potential returning players are Bonk, Wood, Rehkopf, Cowen and Yager. They are going to lean heavily on the 06 players.8 of the American team will be eligible for next year---Perreault, Smith, Leonard barring any injuries will almost for sure be the top line. Other forwards Oliver Moore and Danny Nelson. On D Zeev Buium who is in his draft year and the other Rangers prospect Drew Fortescue. Fortescue also did really well. Regular ice time....more of a defensive presence but he still put up 4 points including the breakaway pass to Howard on USA's second goal yesterday. What will probably be two years of WJC and a gold medal already kind of points to an NHL career for him. It's success at top flight competition for his age group and not every top pick gets the chance.
Trey Augustine will also be eligible for a third year next year and he'll arguably be the best goalie again.

Some chance Celebrini too. Most teams have key guys coming back but the United States I think will be the favorite again. I don't think the Smith, Leonard, Perreault line was great at the beginning of the tournament but they got better and better as the tournament went along and IMO that was the best line in the Gold Medal game though Isaac Howard was a big factor too. That portends will for next year + Cole Eiserman should make the team so USA's forward group should be really strong. Augustine in net again would be another major boost. Hutson, Casey, Buium and Chesley were all D pushing the play and only Buium can return so that might be an area but all in all USA is in good shape to repeat.
I'm assuming Celebrini will be in the NHL. If he's available for Canada, that makes a big difference.Some chance Celebrini too.

If I was Drury I'd be trying to figure out how I could get Leonard to NY to play with Gabe, maybe catch some of that magic at the pro level.When the chips were down Gabe and Leonard were the ones that made a difference.
That GWG in the semis was pretty huge thoughPerreault led all US players with 7 points once the three knockout games began.
He didnt need to pad his stats up in garbage games like Gauthier, who did jack shit in the gold medal game.

Going back decades a lot of times some NYR fans wanted the I can't believe xyz is still available and then they had nothing careers. I remember when Angelo Esposito was once thought of as a possible #1 OA and fell hard. It was the year we drafted Cherpy. Espo did not have much of a NHL career. Even though NYR fans were happy with Cherpy they also wanted Espo. Also remember some NYR fans going nuts that we did not draft Latendresse who fell out of the first round. He did not have a long NHL career either. I also remembered some pretty knowledgeable NYR fans wanted us to draft Tim Erixon instead of Chris Kreider.Too true. Always take the riser, never the faller
It was. But that was pretty much all we saw of him in the semi and gold medal games. Very low IQ player. I could easily see him busting at the NHL level.
