Cirelli got injured Sunday.. he's out.. replaced by Bennet
Point is still out as well..
Toews had been out for a while for the Avs.. just played first game back.. I'd be bringing some D insurance .. they have a lot of roster room for the Olympics.. and no cap limit :) .. I'd bring Schaeffer.

Team Canada is making an injury change for the upcoming Olympics.
Sam Bennett will replace Anthony Cirelli.
Very sorry for Cirelli, who was injured Sunday.

Seth Jarvis replaces B. Point.. downgrade.. to me Jarvis was a disappointment in the 4 Nations.
Wyatt Johnson, Scheifele, Hyman, Bedard .. not considered. Schiefele for sure.
Team Canada management is always the first opponent that Team Canada needs to defeat.

To be fair to the Team Canada braintrust, they've just upgraded the 53rd highest scoring Canadian forward for the 27th highest! That's a massive swing! He's 22nd in points per game too!
As long as you look past the fact that they aren't bringing the 5th, 6th, 11th, 13th, 14th, or anyone from 17th to 21st, then Jarvis is a great pick.

Point is quicker though.. Jarvis I found really underwhelming in the 4N.
For this Olympic tourney speed is gold.
IMHO too many on the TC forward squad are average quickness.. defence too.
I guess they plan to wear the tires off of McDavid and Crosby's line.
