LOL at Toews.
Was listening to a radio show regarding Team Canada for the WC and insiders are saying Babcock has him as the 4th line centre for Canada.

Even EA's drinking the Toews Koolaid.

It always depends of the lines combinations, but thinking that Babcock may play Toews 4th line minutes is nonsense for me, I can't see that happening at all.

I don't know if Toews and Stamkos are that high, top 10 though.

And McDavid might deserve to be on there, he was killing it when he came back.

No reward for two way hockey. There arent 10 centers in the game better than Bergeron.

Getzlaf did not have a good season last year. I think Joe Thornton should replace him, but hey I am very biased

Was just going to post something similar. Literally thought it was a joke with this list.

Not when the top 3 lines are genuinely slotted for more offensive players.
And Toews is the least offensive centre on that team.

One could make a case that Ryan O'Reilly deserves to be on the team just as much as Toews.

I think the 4th line is perfect for Toews. He'll get 8-10 minutes a game with lots of PK time.
Looking at Team Canada's roster, that's exactly the kind of minutes he should get.
