Boychuk made Team Canada for the second consecutive year and will be looking for another gold medal. The Lethbridge winger has 12 goals, 14 assists, 26 points and is a (plus) +13 in 21 games for Lethbridge so far this season.

Bowman made Team USA this time around, after being snubbed last season even though he had outstanding stats. Last year's Memorial Tournament standout for Spokane has 15 goals, 18 assists, 33 points, and is (plus) +18 in 30 games this season.
The annual tournament gets under way on December 26th in Ottawa.

Excellent. It was ridiculous that Bowman got snubbed last year. Just to remind everyone the NHL Network is broadcasting the tournament this year so there will be plenty of chances to watch both players.

Corey, me son – No Carey Price this time we meet so i’m wondering who you will jab about in your pre game this time around. Love your work and how is our little darling Samsonov.

Be fair … it wasn’t a jab. I’m actually just doing some research on Kovalev and have something planned on him. I’m sure Habs fans will agree.
