US National Teams: U30s & Mrs. Potter, U22s, U18s Part II

Re: US National Teams: U30s & Mrs. Potter, U22s, U18s Part II

Yup, that's the way I read it too. Only games in Toronto and Montreal

The good news is that she's recovering from wrist surgery and should be available for the national team at some point. Shame she's not better already, she might be able to sneak up to BU for the Blades game and get back down to Providence for Clarkson...

And Kelli Stack seems to confirm she's done: http://collegehockeyshowcases.com/catching-up-with-kelli-stack/

CHS: You played in a couple games for the Boston Blades last season. Can we expect to see you back in the CWHL this season?

KS: Chances are very slim that you will see me in a Boston Blades jersey this season. I recently bought a house and need to pay my mortgage, so I have to devote my time to a different career this year. However, never say never, maybe something will spark my playing interests again down the road.
 
Re: US National Teams: U30s & Mrs. Potter, U22s, U18s Part II

brookyone and I were talking at Friday's Gopher game about how unfortunate it is that the USA seems to lose so many of our best players too soon, and how this has negatively affected our results against Canada. Kelli Stack appears to be the latest "early retiree" who would have made the US team better had she not decided to move on while still in her prime, at least age-wise. It seems that the Canadians have enjoyed an advantage when more of their most talented and experienced players have remained committed to their national team longer than many of the USA's best. Obviously any player who decides to delay retirement and continue to play for her country post college must totally commit herself to remain in top physical condition and continue to compete against top opposition. Unfortunately, it seems that too many of our best USA players are forced to give it up too early for economic reasons which, for whatever reason, does not appear to influence the top Canadian players' decision-making to the same extent.

Anyone know why Gigi Marvin has been replaced on the Four Nations Cup roster?

:rolleyes:

Anyone willing to share why Gigi Marvin has been replaced on the Four Nations Cup roster?

FWIW, she was at the BC/Cornell game on Friday but didn't seem to be playing in the Blades game on Saturday.

Grant had a great exchange with her at that game:

GIGI (of BC): I haven't seen them play this year, they're good.
GRANT: Do they remind you of Minnesota in their heyday?
GIGI (without missing a beat): No.

Wow Ted, while I agree with the fact that the comment was stupid, you have not even had a BC vs BU game yet. Tony must not be having you just drink the BC koolaide but mainlining it.


nothing to do with games and I certainly don't need any help from TTT.
