    Players In/Out of Olympics thread

    Thought I'd open this thread to post news about players being in/out of their national teams.

    So a couple of latest news:
    - Canada: St. Louis will replace Stamkos.
    - Czech Republic: Erat will replace Sobotka.
    - Finland: Mikko Koivu and Kimmo Timonen are still questionable.
    - Slovakia: Gaborik is out.
    - Sweden: Henrik Sedin and Franzen are out. Nyquist will replace Franzen.
    - Switzerland: Phillip Furrer is out.

    Nice. Keep up the good work Z and thanks.

    Interesting note: Chara will not play for the Bruins today in St Louis. He will be holding the flag for his country in the ceremonies or something like that.

    Yeah, seems like Bruins are really confident with themselves to let him go early. Watch it backfire tonight against Blues

    Oh ya. Blues are the wrong team to underestimate.

    Wow thanks for the Chara tip. I was planning on playing them.

    Pass for me now.

    Bruins will probably win in a blow fashion now.

    True. Doesn't matter I guess. Pacioretty says he's up for the trip to sochi still despite his injury today...
