Who will be on this team in April and will they be a serious threat to claim gold again? Team Canada won gold at the summer U18 Junior World Cup, but will not have everyone available for this upcoming tournament. The team will be made up of 1988 born players on CHL, NCAA or Junior A teams that miss their respective league playoffs or who are eliminated in the 1st round. One interesting scenario could have Team Canada naming John Tavares to the roster, but as a 1990 born player I don't know if they would do that? He would essentially be a 'double underage' and even Sidney Crosby didn't play as a 15 yr old. It will be interesting to see what happens there. Here are some of my early picks to be there in April,
John Tavares - Oshawa
Claude Giroux - Gatineau
Justion Azevedo - Kitchener
Matt Beleskey - Belleville
Ryan McDonough - Saginaw
Jonathan Toews - North Dakota
James Sheppard - Cape Breton
Ty Wishart - Prince George
Keaton Ellerby - Kamloops
Steve Ferry - Sarnia
Jonathan Bernier - Lewiston
