Lol we have a real goon coming up. This kid doesn't miss mean streak for sure.

I'm actually glad hes going to college so he can focus on his skills. He has to be one of the toughest prospects in the entire league, especially for guys still in junior I would probably stack him up with anyone.

I'm betting hes converted to forward though if he makes the NHL and plays more as a 13th forward. If a guy can skate fast though I dont mind if his hockey skills arent great because he'll be laying out bodies left and right. It also makes more sense to use an enforcer as your 13th forward when hes 6'4, 240 lbs and can skate fast enough to crush guys instead of smaller guys like May and Downey who dont really scare dmen that they come down on.

If Mckee can just become good enough to play 7 mins a game he will scare the piss out of most NHLers

De Haas no points last night. McKee suspended for 2 games after Saturday's 29 PIM game. Found a video of his fight that night, opponent is 6'6/211:

Those weren't small punches either, he was going straight for the knockout.

 

[InjuredChoker]

Sproul and Paterson fighting for the spot right now, last chance for them. 1st period just ended.

Ouellet not playing, he's apparently a lock.

 

[InjuredChoker]

Paterson looking really solid.

 

[Henkka]

Paterson looking really solid.

They can't even score to the Paterson's empty net.

He has some magnetic field. That a good for a goalie.

90 minutes and still zero conceded goals.

Yeah I lol'ed hard on that one.

90 minutes, 3 nights 0.00 GAA. I'm really falling in love with this kid.

Haha, that was hilarious. Richie and Catenacci both miss empty-netters. "That's not going in, that's Paterson's net"

I think Paterson should be at least the third goalie. I don't know if Sproul will make it though.

 

[TNigs]

Sproul had a nice game defensively today, he knocked the puck off of guys in front of the net multiple times.

Even thought it was Murphy's best game so far, he still looked pretty bad. He will make the team because of his coach but not deserving with the other talent around him.

Paterson looked great, it won't be enough for him to be the starter but he looks so focused and calm out there, always in great position, stopping everything.

Tom Wilson crushed someone behind the net, and sacrificed the body in the final seconds to block a shot. Canada will love this guy by the end of this tournament.

 

[sully6one]

Paterson is going to be on the team and from there it's a toss up because now they can battle for positions. I'm thinking he'll end up as a back up though, unless he continues this type of play.

Ouellet is a on the team, no secret.

Sproul, I just don't know. I don't think he showed enough offensively to make it. If anything he'll start as the #7 defensemen.

 

[ChadS]

My guess:
- Ouellet a lock for the top-4
- Paterson is the back-up thanks to a great camp
- Sproul will be cut; didn't show his offense enough but was steady defensively

Most people on main forum seem to think that Paterson should get an invite and up to an backup role.

Sproul cut which seems fair.

I remember the criticism the Wings got for picking him on draft day. When people found out it was basically Osgood's pick, it made it even worse.

 

[ChadS]

Corrado was cut, chance for Sproul?

And Brossoit cut as well, so Paterson is on the team.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Corrado cut good news for Sproul. He is a righthanded guy.

Paterson was always making this team as the only 94 in camp.

for Paterson, played his way on to the team. Maybe he's backup, but chances are he'll be 3rd string.

As for Sproul, IMO, it's a battle between him and Murphy and Murphy has the inside track with his Kitchener ( I think ) coach being the head coach.

If Murphy makes this team and they don't get gold his coach will never hear the end of that decision. He has been bad in camp and really not great this year either along with a poor summer. There is no reason he is even in the running at this point.

 

[Henkka]

At European-sized rink, you benefit of defencemen with Ryan Sproul's reach.

I think they should put him to TOP6.

Based on this week's games I don't think Dumba should be on the team. But of course it's not all based on this week. If Dumba doesn't make it, Sproul has a chance I guess.

 

[FissionFire]

I get the feeling that whether or not Sproul makes the team depends on whether the coach gets to play favorites or the rest of his staff basically vetos him.

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

They both go really. Although I agree with a lot of people that Murphy will be on the team.

 

[ChadS]

Sproul cut. Too bad.

 

[joe89]

Canadian selections always riveting

 

[Mister Ed]

Sproul cut. Too bad.

Aw man, well at least we'll get to see Ouellet and Paterson (maybe) play. Sucks that the games are on so early.
