Didn't see a thread for this, but the prelim games start on Tuesday.

Five Duluth players made the squad and the kid that can't do pull ups scored against Sweden the other day.  And the goalies are all hockey east guys. 

How Mismash is not on this team to give them some grit is beyond me.

I think Canada wins gold this year, which hopefully jinxes their chances.....

Canada is always considered the "favorite". Of course, there is so much young talent in this tournament, it is almost impossible to predict who will win.

Terrible that Mismash wasn’t even on the prelim team.  Und needs to start getting kids in the tourney, huge for recruiting.

So is Motzko being the coach mean that UND players may not get a fair shake?  How involved is he in choosing the team?

 

It's that darn Potulney.....:lol:

I think a GM is involved in the selection process that has the final say.  Can't remember the guys name.  Maybe Johansson or something like that.
