They are also led by Steve Yzerman, who became the executive director for Team Canada this past year.In early July, 46 players were invited to orientation camp held in late August. Of these 46 players there were definitely some surprises, including a couple of young players, Milan Lucic and Jonathan Toews to name a few.As usual, Team Canada is loaded on offense and there are going to be a lot of guys who are very good but just not good enough to make the team.There were 25 forwards invited to camp. That number will eventually be trimmed down to 12 or 13 by the end of December. Currently, they are loaded at center with the likes of Sidney Crosby, Vincent Lecavalier, Jeff Carter, Eric Staal and Joe Thornton.

Every one of these guys is one of the best on their team and in the NHL.With that said, I feel Yzerman is making a big mistake in not inviting Patrice Bergeron to camp.Bergeron is entering his sixth season for the Boston Bruins and is having a great start to the year alt gossip celebrities . He currently leads the Bruins in points with eight goals and 13 assists.Bergeron was drafted by the Bruins in 2003 and made the team his first year laineygossip . After the season he played for Team Canada’s Under-20 team in the 2005 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships gosip . Bergeron won the MVP after notching five goals and eight assists.In just his second season, Bergeron led the Bruins with 31 goals and finished with 71 points gossipers . He played for Team Canada after the season at the Senior Men’s World Championships and again had a great performance, finishing just second in scoring to none other than Sidney Crosby.

Bergeron was 20 years old at the time.With this kind of career, it seems shocking that Bergeron wasn’t invited angelina gossip . It’s most likely because his career was almost ended after he was hit from behind, head-first into the boards early in the 2007 season latest celebrity news . He ended up with a broken nose and a Grade III concussion and subsequently missed the rest of the season.Since his return, though, he has been on his way back to being a premier NHL center celeb news . Bergeron leads the league in faceoff percentage, winning 58.3 percent of his draws.His only downside this season has been his plus/minus, which is currently minus-one celebrities news . This might look like a guy who doesn’t play defense, but that’s not the case Bergeron is the Bruins’ best penalty-killer.

His forecheck constantly causes opposing players to turn the puck over and sometimes leads to shorthanded goals.So since the roster for Team Canada’s 2010 Olympic Team has not been finalized yet, the brass should take a close look at Patrice Bergeron angelina jolie gossip . He will bring an intangible that some of the other guys don’t have and he has a great work ethic. celebrity news .

Louis, and Vincent Lecavalier were a combined -9 in Tampa Bay’s 4-1 loss to Boston.Ryan Malone, whos second on the team with 15 goals, has managed just one point (an assist) in the last four contests.The Bolts power play is powerless in their last 13 opportunities.To say there’s a scoring issue with the Lightning is putting it mildly.”It seems before we were not getting shots but we were scoring, now we are getting the shots but we are not scoring,” said Stamkos, who leads the team with 17 goals, told the Tampa Tribune , “It’s tough because it’s not coming from a lack of chances—pucks just aren’t going in We need to get more traffic to the net and keep it simple. I think 40 shots against a pretty good team, we’ll take that every night, we just need to find ways to score more goals.”Lightning coach Rick Tocchet agreed, “The bottom line is you’ve got to score goals. Sooner or later you’ve got to get the job done, and that’s it.

You have to finish.”If there’s one thing the Boston Bruins know how to do, it’s finish off the Lightning . Boston beat Tampa Bay for the 14th time in 18 games.The offense wasn’t the only issue in this one for Tampa Bay, defensive lapses and mistakes by goaltender Mike Smith led to Bruin scoring chances, which they buried.”When you don’t score goals,” Tocchet said, “those are the things that really bite you.”One Tampa Bay player suggests that the Lightning’s early success got them a little big for their own britches.”We were kind of kidding ourselves with some of the effort we put out recently,” Ryan Malone said, “We have to look in the mirror and pick it up a level justjared .
