Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 02/01/2014 (4588 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Back in August at Team Canada’s orientation camp, I put together the following story on how I thought Team Canada would look when its roster was officially announced. GM Steve Yzerman will announce his team in five days on January 7. Here’s my original piece and an updated prediction list.
August Guess
There’s lots of hockey to be played between then and now but here’s my hunch on how the team will look. Obviously this is all subject to change due to injury and production. Canada will carry three goalies, eight defence and 14 forwards.
Goal
Roberto Luongo
Carey Price
Mike Smith
Defence
Shea Weber
Duncan Keith
Marc Staal
Drew Doughty
Jay Bouwmeester
Alex Pietrangelo
PK Subban
Dan Boyle
Forward
Sidney Crosby
Jonathan Toews
John Tavares
Patrice Bergeron
Ryan Getzlaf
Logan Couture
Claude Giroux
Rich Nash
Corey Perry
Eric Staal
Steven Stamkos
Martin St.Louis
Mike Richards
Joe Thornton
January Guess
Goal
Mike Smith comes off and Josh Harding goes on
New list
