Another Leaf Gets the Shaft

Politics rear's it's ugly head again how in God's name could Wade Belak be omitted from the Canada's top 81. :dunno:

It would only seem appropriate that Canada's team (The Leafs) be represented.

Allison if 100% healthy at the age of 30 is almost unstoppable….
I remember when he represented Canada at the WJHC and he was Dominant, It appears nothing has changed.
:joker: yeah, nothing has changed, WJC and the Olympics are still two completely different tournaments…

Lindros could be interesting...

It's hard to imagine any scenario short of a plane crash in which Lindros and especially Allison would make a team of 13 forwards.

These guys are locks IMO:

Sakic
Lemieux
Thornton
Lecavalier
Nash (if healthy)
Richards
Iginla
Heatley
Gagne

That leaves four spots left with guys like Spezza, St. Louis and Staal as the leading contenders for the next three positions, in my view.

That leaves one spot left with it probably going to a defensive specialist-penalty-killing kind of guy like Draper.

That leaves guys like Crosby, Doan, Smyth, Bertuzzi, Bergeron, Lindros, Kariya, Sullivan, Savard, Murray, Maltby, Yzerman and anybody else you want to name on the outside looking in.
