US Junior Team cuts

Re: US Junior Team cuts

What do you think US Hockey based its decision on to not take Moore? At first you alluded to the fact that it was because he took the CHL route but I already pointed out that this U.S. squad has more CHL representation on it than any other team in the tourney with the exception of Canada. There are 10 players on this roster with CHL ties so what kind of politics are you talking about?

I did not say that. Was just saying how it was ironic that Moore was cut based upon the other thread about the Canadian team selection. Not Moore vs any one player. Ramage was a college player as was Donovan. Donovan did very well, Ramage pick smells of politics. Who knows, just a curiosity thing, Not tooting John Moore.

If Ramages name was John Smith, he would not have made US Dev team or WJ team. It is what it is but 30+ gm's said no thanks even though he was ranked top 100 by the political central scouting crew

Team USA did not take the 8 best D.

I believe Moore did not have a good camp in August and the handwriting was on the wall from that moment on. They wanted us natl kids and used that as their catalyst. Politics not best players is a huge part of usa hockey

just look at natl team, they go out of their way to bring in ex players kids
Corkum, Ramage, Bourque, Krupp etc

Only Bourque would have made the team even up

They always get the invites and then politics kicks in

You've been tooting(?) him for weeks now. Give it a rest. No one cares who didn't make the team anymore as the tourney is almost done.

You have well established yourself as the preeminent John Moore fan and booster on this site. Let me guess, he's on the NCAA team that you root for?

And oh by the way, ALL youth/amateur sports are political. Every single league, every sport, everywhere in the entire world.

Have you seen Moore play. He is pretty dynamic in the offensive zone but he can be a bit of defensive liability....much like Ellis was for Canada the other night. It was most likely that factor that kept him off this team.

If usa was looking for a political pick to throw it off the boards and get toasted in 3rd more than once, they picked the right guy. watched game again today, did not have a good gm

Re: US Junior Team cuts

the teams keep track of ice

rinknet and a few others might help your search

moore will pay more in taxes than ramage will ever make playing hockey

it is though not a moore vs ramage issue

politics is usa hockey, always will be

HD, I think you are quite mistaken about the playing time of Ramage in the 3rd. If anyone had less ice time it was Gardiner, another Badger, whom, I might add, was rather invisible except for a couple of good defensive plays in the crease, one of which kept Hall of the score sheet.

Not mistaken about the below avg play. several big mistakes
