Reply With QuoteLou is number 1 at this point I would think followed closely by Price.. As others have mention the 3rd spot is wide open but I would think Ward is the favorite at this point. If Reimer makes the team I will shoot myself.
It's Quick's job to lose fore sure. Assuming everyone is healthy, after that it's a battle between Miller and Anderson for the back-up job.Originally Posted by blayze
If one of the above three are injured, then it's a battle between Howard and Schneider for a roster spot.

Bizarre isn't it. The American's 4th goalie on their depth chart starts on an NHL team where Canada's #1 is the back-up.
I have it as
US:
Quick
Miller
Anderson
Canada:
Price
Luongo
Ward
Hey that's what I do make brazen statement. Luongo will not be a backup next year. He will be a starter as he should have been this year imo and he will clearly outperform Price who has yet to prove anything in big games. Lou has made it to a game 7 and won a gold. Despite the I'm sorry to say Moronic statements by some that he had nothing to do with them winning the gold his numbers were the best in the tourny. He may have looked a little shaky from time to time but bottom line he kept the puck out and made the saves when he had too. He is my starter at least.

I still feel Brodeur makes this team.. Not as the starter, but I do think he will be one of the 3 goalies named to the team as some added leadership.. Luongo, Price, and Brodeur..

I don't see this as a bad idea at all. The third starter doesn't actually mean anything and it would be a nice gesture towards one of the best goalies of all time.

Very good point.. and if your looking to your 3rd goalie, you may be up shit creek and it would be nice to have the guy with the experience and confidence to hold down the fort!

Don't know why it double posted Sorry! Ya if it does come down to a third goalie whick is very unlikely I would feel more comfortable with Marty over my original 3rd choice regardless of his age. In a 1 or two game situation I think experience would trump anything else.

In addition to the names mentioned, I'd like to throw in a Dark Horse for third string: Steve Mason.
I know I'll get derided for that, but I think it's a real possibility depending on good play with the Flyers

I think its clear that it's Price and Luongo with the 3rd spot wide open. Price was by far the best Canadian this year and Luongo is coming off the last gold medal. Just like most championship tournaments I'd expect they each get a shot during round robin and the one who plays the best gets the start when the playoffs roll around.
The 3rd spot is wide open with a ton of possibilites: Ward, Smith, Dubnyk, Crawford, MA Fleury, Brodeur. If it was my team to pick I'd probably grab a younger guy knowing the odds he sees the ice are almost nil so my inclination would be Dubnyk or Crawford.

Agreed. If Brodeur wants to be there, which I suspect he does, you make a spot for him. Period. Even if he doesn't see a minute of ice time, his presence on the bench is huge. If you only had 2 spots for goalies it would be different. With 3 spots, 1 is his, without question.

Considering how well he handles the puck he could be a black ace dman.

Gonna have to strongly disagree with you guys on that one. I respect the hell out of Brodeur like anyone else, but that would be a ridiculous waste of a goalie slot. This is the Olympics... not the legends charity tournament.
In addition to sending it's 2 best, Canada should (and probably will) send a younger guy who will likely be a starter in 2018. The experience gained from being there and practicing with the team is invaluable... no sense wasting that opportunity on old man Marty.
