Can 100% guarantee that Lafreniere will not be on the team. A lot more proven guys, especially since its only a year away. He hasn't shown really anything at this point to even think he might be in the running.

Probably see Huberdeau/Scheifele over Hall/Laf/Seguin

Team Canada has historically loved running 3 lefties and 3 righties on the back end, which is tough because they have about 10 quality righties.

I think Chabot, Theodore, then one of Morissey/Reilly

Right side: Weber, Pietrangelo, Doughty, then 2 of Parayko/Hamilton/Makar as the extras.

Price starting and Hart as the backup is pretty much a lock at this point.

In no works does laff make it over marner lol and Reilly >>> doughty ekblad weber

Spoken like a true leafs fan

Spoken with common sense, unlike your post lol

Yeah, Laff maybe not. We`ll see. I think he is going to show quite a bit more by this time next year.

But sure, replace Schiefiele with Lafrieniere.

Yes they have historically liked to do that but I think that was mostly a Babcock thing. I don`t think Babcock will be the coach this time around.

I think at the minimum they go 4 RD and 2 LD. I would take Makar LD over Rielly LD any day. This decision on D will be the toughest for Artmstrong.

If Marner and Rielly were on any other team in the league you would not include them.

I would include the guy who’s third in the league scoring rn and had 94 points two years ago along with the dman who had 73 points 2 years ago. Both are elite players who are better than a lot of the players u included. Any hockey fan with a brain would agree lmao

Yes because the 2022 Olympic team players will be determined based upon how many points a couple guys scored 1-3 years ago.

I don`t think this team is going to have trouble scoring...What can Marner and Rielly bring to the table other than that?

Physicality? Nope.
Leadership? Nope.
Winning resume? Nope.
Defensive prowess? Compared to others? Nope.

Rightttttt because Weber hamilton makar chabot ekblad hall mcdavid barzal all bring winning resumes right ? And they’re the most physical players that we’ve seen right? And oh yes the classic, they must be great leaders because us fans can measure that! And wow since when are players measured over leadership and physicality over the numbers they produce. Your whole argument literally makes no sense.... just stop

Every player you just named brings way more to the table than Rielly or Marner.

In what way? Or is it just ur bias against leaf players, because u don’t have any argument ur just being a moron

Come on man. I suggested Reilly might make it if they want to run 3 lefties and 3 righties. You lost me when you said Reilly >>> Weber and Doughty. That statement is objectively wrong.

When it comes to international play, nobody cares about age or contract. Weber and Doughty are still top notch players. In 1 years time, I wouldn't expect that to change

Drew doughty isn’t even a top 20 dman. Pls give me one, just one stat that proves that either of those two dman are better then Reilly
