Sidney Crosby did not have a say in the selection of this team. The sources I've reached out to around Hockey Canada burst out laughing when I asked if players had any say on the selection process. The GMs involved didn't travel for days on end to be told who to pick by their own players.

@BodogCA Yes, with the re-seeding Canada would take on Germany in the semi and USA vs Finland

@FriedgeHNIC Canada time locked in on Wednesday? or find out after the play in games ?

@FriedgeHNIC Greg, do you know how seeding for 5-12 goes? By points or placement in pool. Then, do they reseed for QF or is the draw set?

Group B: Finland beats Italy in regulation: three-way tie. That’s where late goal had massive implications. Tiebreak is goal differential in games between Finns, Swedes and Slovaks. Slovakia would be +1, Finland even, Sweden -1. Any other result: Sweden 1st, beat Slovakia

@FriedgeHNIC Question for anyone who knows, is the 5 through 12 seeded off Points or are the 5 and 6 seeds the other 2nd place teams in their groups. So let’s say Sweden is 3rd, would they be automatically 7 at the highest?

Here are my three takeaways from today’s 4-3 Montreal Canadiens overtime win over the Dallas Stars, brought to you by Snap Bar Sportif in Rigaud. *feel free to RT and engage!* 1 — Canadiens avenge their worst loss Montreal’s most lopsided loss of the season came back on November 13, when they were blown out 7–0 by the Dallas Stars. That game wasn’t close, and for many, it felt like the sky was falling after a night where just about everything went wrong. This time around, the Canadiens were up for the task and wrapped up their road trip on a high note. Dallas pushed hard in the third period, but Sam Montembeault responded by making up for a weak goal allowed earlier and came up with several big saves when it mattered most. The Habs seemed to be running on fumes and just wanted to get the game into overtime. They get the extra point thanks to a game winner by Lane Hutson. The Canadiens head home feeling good about a road trip that can be classified as a tremendous success. Splitting the season series with one of the league’s top teams is an encouraging sign. 2 — Poor Phillip Danault Sometimes the hockey gods just aren’t on your side. Danault is still searching for his first goal of the season, and we’re now past the halfway point. You can do all the right things, but at some point a zero in the goal column starts to weigh on any player. Montreal’s most recent trade acquisition thought he had one in the first period. The only problem was Brendan Gallagher also got a piece of it. The celebration was emphatic, and it looked like the monkey was finally off his back — but not quite. Danault remains in search of his first goal. That said, he did pick up an assist on the play, marking the 400th point of his NHL career. 3 — Oliver Kapanen is Montreal’s most overlooked player Kapanen doesn’t get nearly enough credit, despite continuing to score at an impressive pace. With his goal this afternoon, he’s now on track for a 25-goal season — and very few people would have predicted that before the year began. Yes, he’s benefitting from playing alongside Ivan Demidov and Montreal’s most productive forward in Juraj Slafkovsky, but that doesn’t diminish what he’s accomplished. He’s done nothing but produce. Gone are the days when the main conversation around the Canadiens centered on the absolute necessity of acquiring a second-line center. They already have a rookie who’s outperformed the vast majority of names that have been floating around in trade rumors since the start of the season. @tsn690 #tsn690

Here are my three takeaways from tonight’s 3–2 Montreal Canadiens shootout win over the Winnipeg Jets, brought to you by Snap Bar Sportif in Rigaud. 1 — Finally, a complete game The Montreal Canadiens were challenged by their coach, and they responded with elevated effort, better attention to detail, and a much cleaner performance in their own zone. The most encouraging part of their night was the way they played with hunger and a bit of controlled anger. Yes, Winnipeg is an older, slower team that was finishing up a road trip, but Montreal actually took advantage of that and pushed the pace rather than sitting back. And how about this — they didn’t completely implode in the second period! 2 — Time to break up Matheson/Dobson Although the pairing worked for a while, Martin St. Louis’ next move almost has to be splitting up Mike Matheson and Noah Dobson. It was a tough night for them, and it’s been trending that way for a bit. Sometimes a different look or a simple reboot is needed, and a change could also benefit Lane Hutson. The Habs’ top pair was on for two goals against, and Dobson was, at times, more of a spectator than a participant. Yes, they take the hard minutes against top competition, but maybe Dobson’s minutes get scaled back slightly, and Hutson gets a chance to open things up more offensively at 5-on-5 with Matheson as his partner. We’ll see how much longer St. Louis sticks with the status quo. 3 — The Markov tribute was great The Montreal Canadiens welcomed Andrei Markov home, and as always with Montreal ceremonies, it was done to perfection. His emotions were real, his speech was heartfelt, and the Bell Centre crowd got to cheer one more time for a player that an entire generation watched play more games than anyone else in their colours. Markov had a terrific career with the Habs and absolutely deserved the moment. He spent 17 seasons with the same organization and nearly hit 1,000 games (thanks a lot, Marc Bergevin). After injuries slowed his skating, he reinvented himself and remained one of the smartest players on the ice. And how about this — during his Canadiens tenure, he played for five general managers, nine coaching changes, and two owners. “Montreal, je t’aime.” *All RTs and most engagement is appreciated*

@PKSubban1 @NHL @CanadiensMTL PK, would love to grab a picture if you are in house tonight! Message me.

Andrei Markov left an indelible mark on me. Wearing the number 76 jersey was a small tribute, as 6 upside down is 9, symbolizing 79. I aimed to mirror his dedication and leadership on the ice. Witnessing Andrei's devotion as a father, husband, and friend has been inspiring. Cheers to the general, tonight and every night! 🍻 🫡79# 💙🤍❤️ Merci Marky! 🇷🇺

Here are my three takeaways from tonight’s 5–2 Montreal Canadiens loss to the Ottawa Senators, brought to you by Snap Bar Sportif in Rigaud. 1 — Losing to Ottawa hurts Losing to Western Conference teams is one thing; losing to a divisional rival on home ice is something else entirely. Right now, the Canadiens’ top on-ice rival is the Senators, and dropping a key game to them in regulation is a tough pill to swallow for a lot of players. These two teams are in similar places in their rebuilds (yes, Ottawa is a bit ahead with their core slightly more mature and polished), and they’re likely to finish near each other in the standings with similar expectations. The good news: there are still two games left between these teams and a ton of racetrack left in the season. It would be nice to finally see a game where both sides are healthy and at full strength. Still, this one was more embarrassing than any of the lopsided losses in November. 2 — The Habs had too many passengers Too many players had nothing in the tank for a game of this magnitude, which is disappointing to say the least. Two players who were especially invisible were Josh Anderson and Jake Evans. There just wasn’t much happening for either of them, and for a guy who plays with emotion and should thrive in a matchup like this, Anderson was particularly quiet. He showed a bit of life early in the third, but that was about it, and Martin St. Louis quickly cut his ice time. Last season Anderson was praised for finding a new role and gutting it out while playing hurt most of the year. This season, though, his game has swung wildly from night to night, and the inconsistency is becoming hard to ignore. 3 — Zach Bolduc does nothing at home The point splits for Zach Bolduc are pretty striking: he’s close to a point-per-game player on the road, yet he has just one point all season at the Bell Centre. On top of that, he goes long stretches without being noticeable. Just when it looked like some chemistry was forming with Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield, they accomplished very little at five-on-five against Ottawa. Sure, it’s only one game, but Bolduc has to be relieved for whenever he finally gets that first home goal. Maybe once it goes in, the floodgates open. *remember all RT and are appreciated*

Here's my three takeaways from tonight 5-2 Montreal Canadiens' win over the Toronto Maple Leafs brought to you by Snap Bar Sportif in Rigaud. *all RTs and engagement is appreciated!* 1 — The Canadiens stop the bleeding The Montreal Canadiens were able to stop the bleeding… for now. Hard to tell if this one was about Montreal being really good or Toronto being really bad, but it was exactly what the doctor ordered for the Habs. Montreal had a monster second period where, at times, it looked like the Harlem Globetrotters vs. the Washington Generals. The Habs played keep-away while Toronto watched them skate circles around them. When was the last time the Canadiens dominated the Leafs to this degree? The win snapped a five-game losing streak and ended a stretch where a few players looked like they had the weight of the world on their shoulders. Now we’ll see if they can exhale collectively and build on a lot of the good they showed in this one. 2 — Juraj Slafkovsky played with assertiveness Slafkovsky had a strong game even if he wasn’t all over the scoresheet (though he did pick up an assist). While he’s shown real chemistry with Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki — and they’ve had stretches as one of the best lines in the league — playing him on another line lets him be the alpha. He carried the puck with confidence, took space when it was there, and made a lot of smart plays. The combination of Slafkovsky and Demidov has some serious potential and brings real balance to the lineup. We’ll see if Slafkovsky has officially been unlocked. 3 — Florian Xhekaj looks the part Florian Xhekaj made his NHL debut and played his role exactly the way the Canadiens needed. He was in on the forecheck, got into multiple battles with Oliver Ekman-Larsson — who probably never wants to see him again — and picked up his first NHL point on Josh Anderson’s second-period goal. And yes got into his first fight as well with Dakota Mermis. Like his brother, Florian has to play right on the edge to be effective. He doesn’t have to fight, but if he sticks around, he’ll be eager to — it’s part of the identity that got him here. His combination of size and scoring touch at the AHL level makes him an intriguing piece who fills a real need for Montreal. He was the perfect call-up for a Canadiens team lacking pushback, energy, physicality, and size.
