Good for all three of these guys. Clearly our three best players
Expecting Kurashev for the Swiss and Mrazek for the CZE to play

Nice to see that there's some recognition about how good Vlasic has become.

The Athletic had an article last month ranking the best defensive defensemen in the league and they had Vlasic #2 in the entire NHL.

He's top 5 for sure, IMO. Most would probably say top 10, though. Considering the team he's on, that's some high ass praise.

Thank you Elon!
Vlasic should have a chance at some solid minutes. Definitely eating up the pk time out there too. If the Canucks drop out Quinn Hughes could make team USA to join his brother and crowd that blue line up. But regardless, Vlasic has earned a spot and should do well there. Maybe Nazar joins him for the experience as an extra forward? You never know...
Which Bedardxwill we see at the WHC?
The one who fizzled over ladtc14 games ...mustering justc1xgoal and only a few assists...or the playerxwexsaw before that?

Doesn’t seem like anyone here is aware : Bedard played yesterday in a tune up game against Austria. Played with Bunting and McCann
I only saw about 30 mins but he wasn’t great. Didn’t stand out much all, turned over the puck a bunch and ran around defensively. A couple zone entries but deferrred a lot.
Hoping he turns it up for the real thing

watch the game, everything else is noise
As always, mixed feelings about Hawks players not resting up and risking injury in the off season.

They’ll be plenty rested considering they no showed most of the games during the season.

Depends on the player. Bedard I'm glad to have play with some talent and compete for something. Reichel go home get a therapist and come back in August head on right and in fantastic shape.

They played up to their abilities. I expected nothing more from them, and I thought their effort was pretty good most of the time.

Over three weeks since Bedard will have played a game, right? That seems like enough time to rest a little, get in better mindset, and go kill it.
Really disappointed that this is the best roster Canada could come up with. Was expecting Bedard to be playing with some high end NHL players. Instead he's out there with people I never even heard of.

If you haven't heard of most of the people on the Canada roster, I'd say you're not a big hockey fan.
I'll forgive you for McBain, Greig, and Mangiapane, but the rest of the guys are pretty prominent NHL'ers or young guys on the rise like Celebrini, Fantilli, Guenther, Cozens, Mercer, Zell, Byram, Guhle, and Power.
