If Latendresse had been made available for the World junior Championship training camp would he have made the team, and if so what would his role have been?
I wonder if Crosby would've made the team.
Personally I not only believe Crosby would have made the team but he would have played on the first line. He certainly has the talent to do so.
Really? Wow.
Cause when you are a MON player and MTL having a huge fanbase on HF, you are going to get mentioned in a lot of threads.I don't think Lats' game is suited to the big ice. He could have helped this team, no doubt, but he's kind of in the mould of a Jason Allison or Glen Murray -- neither of whom ever had serious consideration for the Olympic teams.
On a different note, why the big Lats love/hate fetish here? He's having a good rookie season and looks to have a long, above-average career ahead of him. Good on the kid. But I don't know why he keeps popping up in so many threads.

Team Canada would be worse off with Guillaume on it. I wouldn't take him even if he were available.
Ahh thats what happens when somebody starts a Habs player thread in one of the main forums, especially regarding Lats whose name is popping up left and right...your just asking for the haters to come out and as a result you get a post like this. BTW, if your gonna say something really confrontational like this "Lime" at least back up your argument unless all your doing is trying to stir the pot for no reason other then to get under Habs fans' skins...

Who would have been left off had Latendresse had been available? Team Canada would have had to change their whole scheme of play to accomodate having Latendresse.
Do you leave of a grinder? (Cliche, Betram) Do you leave off a PP specialist? (Ganger) Or how about some speedsters? (Helm, Cogliano)
No, all I'm stating is that you have to look at the team we have, the roles the players are playing and you start to wonder who should be left off.
Also you have to wonder about team chemistry. Would Latendresse enchanched the chemistery or decreased it?
Are you suggesting keeping Ganger or Helm would have been a priority over having Latendresse play that role instead of one of the likes of those 2.
Latendresse would not have been able to score that goal that Helm did against EJ btw. Idk, his name is kind of soft, you don't want to be sending the wrong message to the other teams by having someone named Latendresse on your team. You want someone with the name like LaPierre or umm, something tough sounding, idk. Say his name was Maxime LaChampion then he'd probably make the team.
