Potential lock is an amusing oxymoron, but I don’t think Rielly has that good of a chance to make Canada tbh. On the left side I’d take Theodore, Chabot, Chychrun, Toews, Weegar (RHD who plays the left side), and Girard ahead of him, I’d put Rielly in consideration after that with Nurse, but I don’t think he’s top 5 LD. I think Tavares has a better chance of making it as the spare forward or on the shutdown line if Barzal gets snubbed for youth (he’s helped by the fact that he’s one of the few Canadians with Olympic experience who is still good).

Lindholm - Sweden (lock)
Tkachuk - USA (lock)
Gaudreau - USA (should be a lock, if he gets left off for being tiny I will be infuriated)
Coleman - USA (long shot)
Backlund - Sweden (decent chance)
Ruzicka - Slovakia (extremely likely)
Pospisil - Slovakia (possible)
Andersson - Sweden (very likely)
Valimaki - Finland (possible)
Zadorov - ROC (possible)
Markstrom - Sweden (lock)
Vladar - Czech Republic (unlikely, would need an injury to be top 3)

MEP (Norway) and Solovyov (Belarus) woulda been locks if those countries made it.

Have you seen Russia and Slovakia’s D? Cernak is probably the best Slovakian player in the world, and Sergachev is Russia’s #2D.

Calling KK a lock is projecting stuff that could happen, but we can’t count on in. In this moment Armia is a better player. So I’d be inclined to say that Armia is a lock and KK is close.

Mine would be:
Price - Canada (lock unfortunately)
Petry - USA (lock or they’re incredibly stupid)
Armia - Finland (lock)
Lehkonen - Finland (close/maybe)
Kotkaniemi - Finland (close/maybe)
Romanov - Russia (close/maybe)
Caufield - USA (a little further, but could play his way into the conversation)
Toffoli - Canada (long-shot)
Suzuki - Canada (long-shot)
Frederik Nissen Dichow - Denmark (long-shot)

That 3 weeks rest would be amazing for him. He’s shown the last 2 years that that kind of rest can do him so much good, and the main point of Allen is decreasing his workload. Now he’s going to play a bunch of extra games, and it doesn’t even benefit the habs in any way.

Ah well it is what it is. Tyron could’ve thrown more, but at the end of the day he didn’t and he lost.

Blake I’m coming for you, you better watch out because this one ain’t going to be a decision like Jake v Woodley.

Well, this morning i was told i cannot play hockey this year. Because i am waiting to be vaccinated.

To be clear, I DONT want to make this a political discussion, because i am NOT against being vaccinated, I am just simply waiting for the NovaVax vaccine to be approved.

Sad, because its a game i love and im losing a year of the game i love. Heres to hoping Novavax is approved before the start of the season.

Moderators, feel free to remove this post, I just needed a place to say this because im super dissapointed and frustrated.

Not allowed for the whole year or are you allowed to join mid year if you become vaccinated?
