I added Jack Eichel to the roster on LTIR only because there is still a possibility that he could be back by the time the Olympics role around. If that is the case, then I think he makes the roster over Trevor Zegras. Zegras gets pushed out in that scenmerely because of his age.
Just from a biased Ducks fan perspective...gimme a Connor-Zegras-Tkachuk line allllllll day. That'd be pretty fun.
Haha yeah that would be. I really don’t know what the deal with Zegras will be but as I said up top, his participation status will probably depend on Jack Eichel’s status. If Eichel’s healthy then no doubt he plays.
Zero chance Hartman gets selected. Guentzel? DeBrincat? Not ideal to scratch one of the two best D on the team. Agreed with most of the rest.
I feel like Hartman is going to be a surprise pick. There will definitely be some painful cuts no matter how you slice it and I think DeBrincat and Guentzel will be among them. Hartman is having a great all around season not to mention he plays the type of physical, hard working game that USA Hockey likes. I could definitely be wrong 100%, but I’m taking a gamble here and saying he gets selected.
