Lindros? Bwhahahahhahahahaa

Lil_G 07-25-2001 12:32 AM

Lindros will be on the team, you watch.

I'm shocked, Jason Allison didn't even get an invite, can someone explain this to me?

Stuart also didn't get an invite even though he's way better than Redden and Morris...christ I don't think these guys know what they're doing.

Geuss I have to change O'Neil as well, how the hell brendan morrow was picked over a guy who scored 41 goals last year I have no idea. Same goes for Thornton, I thought he would have made it because gretkzy wanted him on the team...
I wonder if Team Canada officials will share some of that powder will the rest of us.

Still a good team, but would have been scarier with thornton and allison. If Lindros does make it, but does not get traded this season, look for him to be playing for a career.

Lil_G 07-25-2001 12:53 AM

Well grezt' said that they have a list of over 40 players so maybe so of the 34 will get cut and others will be added. I mean there's a lot of controversy with who would make it and who wouldn't. But if you check out the www.tsn.ca/nhl forum by the fans on the Olympic selections it's clear everyone feels Allison should be on the team.

I heard today on the radio that if lindors did not make an nhl roster next season, he will not play for the canadien team.

Lil_G 07-25-2001 11:26 AM

Yeah that's been the case all along...that's why him and peca were so desperate to be traded because otherwise they knew they couldn't play in the olympics.

Thrillhouse 07-25-2001 01:41 PM

I never knew that. I think it would be hilarious as heck to see lindros out there. I hope he doesn't get injured at all but him and fedorov and bure would all fit in well together.

Hey Nick, is it true that Lindros is having an affair with Kournakova now http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif lol

Not sure what you mean by this, are fedorov and bure holding out as well?

I thought she just married that dirty fedorov...if that's the case, and she has been a virgin this long, then he's been waiting a long time for some action.

What I meant about the line with bure and fedorov and lindros is they all are crybabies on the ice. Ask anybody who was a Quebec fan when they were around, heehee

First of all - I am totally happy to see that Alex Tanguay was invited to the try outs (former Halifax Moosehead!) I think with all the NHL "Superstars" getting older, it would be in their best interest to promote players such as Tanguay!
Goalies: Since it is Gretzky making the team, I can see him adding his friends. I belive that it will be Roy (cuz retirement is callin') and Brodeur
Defence: Stevens I think is great and as I said with friends, I am surprised that Macinnis didn't make it alongside Blake.
I also pick Desjardins and Foote
Centres/Wingers: Tough one. Like I already said, I would love to see Tanguay get a spot! My ideal team would then be Arnott, Shanahan, Peca, Fleury (although he has had problems as of late), Lindros (if he would put some effort into it!), Primeau and Nieuwendyke. The problem is that Peca, Lindros and Fleury haven't been on the ice is awhile.
I'm probably totally off, but those are the ones I like!

Hahahah yeah well the lindros and quebec thing wasn't completely accurate, even though something similar happened in junior for the 'Sue. All russians are crybabies if you ask me, that's why they choke on the international scene - no patriotism.

I still can't believe Allison isn't on the team, just watch him play for the U.S. - deja vue Brett Hull.

We need more goal-scorers (Allison finished 4th last year and O'Neil had 41 goals), that was a major problem last time around. We only beat loser countries like Belarus 5-2 when those games should have been embarrassing for the other team.

Those idiots at Team Canada should ignore personal biases, none of the 5 dallas stars deserve to be on the team.

Suter has got to be the dirtiest player in the history of the game. He's only good at injuring superstart players, maybe he'll do us a favor and take out jagr or forsberg.

Lil_G 07-27-2001 04:20 PM

Dude, I was checking out the other rosters...the fins are garbage, the czechs have no D, but the swedes and russians look strong. The U.S. team is good, lots of depth up front but on the blue line and in nets, ehhhhh.
We should be allowed to enter two teams. We have enough talent to do so.
