Big A HG Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 To be honest, I actually expect Nelson to get cut. He just hasn't transitioned fully yet to the speed of the college game, and if that's the case, he likely isn't ready for a World Junior appearance. I'm not knocking his skills, because he is very young and VERY skilled...he's just still developing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems to get knocked around pretty easy but with other kids his same size and age he might do a little better of staying on his feet and with his skills I think hope he can sneak in there.

About Nelson: I was kind of surprised he was invited to the camp considering he hasn't exactly lit it up. But he had a real strong summer camp and I think that stuck with the USA hockey evaluators. The popular thought is that they will take either Nelson or Nick Bjugstad since they're similar players in size, etc. Most feel Bjugstad will be the one taken, even though he hasn't exactly lit up college hockey either. It'll be interesting to see the final squad, no matter who makes it. I'm excited for this tournament either way. It's kind of sad thinking it could have been in Grand Forks though.

brianvf Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Looks like Nelson is having a good game thus far: 19:50 PENALTY USA’s Chris Brown off for holding. A FLURRY of U.S. shots, including a terrific rush by Brock Nelson, who may be Team USA’s top forward of period 1. Along with his faceoff win that led to Chris Brown’s goal, Brock Nelson went 5-for-7 on the draw in that period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 With the importance of faceoffs, and the puck possession games a lot of the international teams play I wouldn't be surprised at all if Nelson made the team. I think with the goaltending they have, the forwards, and the experience that they bring back anything less than a top three finish would be a major disappointment for this hockey team.

Any year they aren't in the Gold medal game is a failure. this year i agree! few years ago i would say any medal but this team is solid again and at least they should play for the gold. that being said, anything can happen with this type of format. i hope nelson, forbort, grimaldi and bjugstad make the team!!
