He's on the list!

They should send the majority of the junior team to the Olympics....just because

Make sure they get cancelled again.
Im surprised Guhle is on that list.

Adam Cracknell lol...

 

[Phil Parent]

Eric Staal in the middle of the list, looking around, wondering what's going on.

It will be interesting if some of these guys will leave their teams to go to the Olympics. Because unlike the NHL, who had a 3-week break for their players to go, the AHL, CHL, and the NCAA will not be paused. So if any of the players on that list potentially make the team, they will miss quite a bit of their team's season.

But at the same time, I don't think those teams would stand in the way of their player from having the opportunity to go to the Olympics.

He's on the list!

Ho-Sang, Leipsic and Virtanen, whew.

And Team Canada U20 won't invite kids for character reasons. Meh...

I might be one of the few who'd rather he not go.

If he tests positive and has to isolate in China for 5 weeks that would be a huge blow for his development.

Imagine "Guhle scores assisted by Staal and Desharnais." Strange times!

Anyone feeling nostalgic should try "Gold Rush 2002" on YouTube. Its a documentary that goes behind the scenes on Gretzky, etc picking that gold medal team. Cool behind the scenes footage of great 1990's/2000's era star players, too.

 

[bobholly39]

They should send Carey Price.

He has my blessing to go. We don't need him this season lol.

 

[beowulf]

Hope Staal has been training.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

Sean Farrell!

 

[Bacchus1]

Cancel or boycott the Olympics. Going with all the covid quarantine restrictions, not to mention all the covid it will generate, is just dumb.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Sounds like Farrell is getting an invite to play for team USA at the Olympics.

Awesome!

Might actually watch them now.

Would love for Norlinder & Guhle to go too, but their NHL contracts might cause issues.

Anyways, congratulations to Farrell, who is having an impressive season.

Guhle is on the potential list for Canada.

Guhle is on the potential list for Canada.

He can’t play though from my understanding.

Why? The NHL withdrawal doesn't affect him as he is in juniors.

I vaguely remembering seeing an article and posts about some junior players not being allowed to play for some reason. I don't remember the reasoning for it though. Maybe just hypothesizing.

He has an NHL contract.

 

[Tim Wallach]

He has an NHL contract.

So does Mason McTavish though and he's heavily rumoured to be going.

From my understanding, guys like McTavish, Guhle, and Perfetti can’t go because they are signed to NHL contracts.

However, Owen Power and Kent Johnson could go because they haven’t signed yet.
