On Tuesday morning, Steve Yzerman, Mike Babcock and the rest of Team Canadas management unveiled the names of the 25 men who will wear the Maple Leaf next month in Sochi as Canada looks to defend its Olympic gold medal. Baltimore Ravens Jerseys . The roster is comprised of Stanley Cup champions, World Junior champions, numerous winners of individual NHL awards and eleven returning members of the team that struck gold in Vancouver in 2010. The resumes of these 25 players speak for themselves, but that doesnt mean that these selections come with universal acclaim. Many very deserving candidates will be watching the Games at home with the rest of Canada after being left off the final roster. So with armchair general managers from Victoria to Charlottetown dissecting the list of those going to Russia and those staying put, who do you think was the biggest snub for Team Canada? Starting in net, a pair of incumbents from the 2010 gold medal-winning team didnt receive the call. Now 41 and with his career winding down, it doesnt really come as a surprise that Martin Brodeur wont be heading to Sochi, but what about Marc-Andre Fleury? The Penguins goalie leads the league with 24 wins and holds a 2.23 GAA which is level with that of Roberto Luongos and higher than both of Mike Smiths and Carey Prices marks. Yes, Fleury has won a Stanley Cup, but did his reputation for floundering in big games negate his chances of once again wearing a Team Canada sweater? Montreal native Corey Crawford is coming off a Stanley Cup championship with the Chicago Blackhawks and, though having missed 10 games due to injury, is once again putting up stellar numbers for a team also looking to repeat. Is Crawfords success viewed as a byproduct of the stellar team in front of him? What about Josh Harding? Arguably, the most inspirational story of the year in the NHL, the 29-year-old has emerged as Minnesotas unquestioned starting goalie for the first time in his eight-year NHL career and completely run with the ball, all the while undergoing treatment for Multiple Sclerosis. Harding leads the league with a miniscule 1.33 GAA, has a .933 save percentage (third in the NHL,) three shutouts and 18 wins. Moving to the blue line, turnover was expected with two stalwarts in Scott Niedermayer and Chris Pronger no longer playing, but Brent Seabrook, another member of the Vancouver 2010 squad, finds himself on the outside looking in. Seabrook is top-five in scoring among defencemen, is joint league-leader in plus/minus and plays over 21 minutes a night for the Blackhawks alongside Duncan Keith, who is headed to Sochi. With Babcock pushing for an eight-man defensive corps made up of four right and four left defencemen, Seabrook found himself behind the likes of Drew Doughty, Alex Pietrangelo, Shea Weber, and P.K. Subban on the right-sided depth chart. Still, is it wise to look past Seabrooks past Olympic success and the fact that his partnership with Keith, the blueliner likely to log the most minutes for Canada, is arguably the NHLs most steady? How much of a factor were injuries in the overlooking of Marc Staal of the New York Rangers and Pittsburgh Penguins D-man Kris Letang? Two more defencemen who toil for Canadian teams who play heavy minutes also didnt receive the call, Torontos Dion Phaneuf and Mark Giordano of the Flames. Are there any more blueliners who you would have liked to see head to Russia? The debate about Canadas forward contingent will likely be the most hotly contested with several significant names not getting picked for duty. For starters, the NHLs assist leader isnt going to Sochi. A member of the 2006 and 2010 Canadian Olympic teams, Joe Thornton (43 assists) was not named on Tuesday morning. Martin St. Louis is leading the Tampa Bay Lightning with 17 goals and 21 assists while Claude Giroux tops the Flyers squad with 12 goals and 26 assists. Eric Staal is his usual reliable self with the Carolina Hurricanes with 35 points in 42 games. Who else deserved to be named to the Olympic team and didnt? And as always, its Your! Call.

Eller said the Oilers were a "junior team" that was "all over the place" before Edmontons 4-3 victory over Montreal on Tuesday night, Oilers head coach Dallas Eakins took offence to Ellers comments and used it to motivate his youthful team.PHILADELPHIA -- Michael Carter-Williams has something to show for being a bright spot in a dismal season for the Philadelphia 76ers. Carter-Williams won the NBAs Rookie of the Year Award on Monday after becoming only the third player since 1950-51 to lead all rookies in scoring (16.7), rebounding (6.3) and assists (6.2). Oscar Robertson (1960-61) and Alvan Adams (1975-76) were the others. Despite the performance of their dynamic guard, the Sixers were awful this season. They were 19-73 and tied an NBA record by losing 26 straight games. "Id definitely trade this award to be in the playoffs in a second," Carter-Williams said. "Coaches tell me to watch the playoffs to look at how different the game is and I do see it. Its a whole different season. This game is about winning. I hope I set a positive example about leading your team in a good way no matter what. I hope guys that come in know the core of this team takes things seriously and we want to build something special." Carter-Williams received 104 of a possible 124 first-place votes. The Orlando Magics Victor Oladipo finished second and Trey Burke of the Utah Jazz was third. "Michael made an immediate impact on the court this season, but his dedication, professionalism and contributions to both the organization and the Philadelphia community make him all the more deserving of this award," Sixers owner Josh Harris said in a statement. "This is an incredibly proud moment for the 76ers and one we are thrilled to share with him, the city and our fans." Allen Iverson is the only other player in Sixers history to win the award. The 11th overall pick from Syracuse in last years draft, Carter-Williams is the first player picked 10th or lower to win since Mark Jackson did it in 1987 for New York. "Michael performed and represented the Sixers organization this past season in a manner befittting of the 2013-14 NBA Rookie of the Year," said co-managing owner David Blitzer. Lamar Jackson Jersey. "He never stopped working from the moment he burst onto the national scene in our home opener through the final horn at last game of the season, and we are proud to congratulate him on this well-deserved award." Carter-Williams had a spectacular debut, posting 22 points, 12 assists and nine steals to lead the Sixers to a stunning 114-110 victory over the two-time defending champion Miami Heat. He was the second rookie after Shaquille ONeill to be the Eastern Conference Player of the Week in his first week in the NBA. "By opening night, it was clear to us that Michael belonged," Sixers President Sam Hinkie said. "This award marks a lifetime of hard work. ... We congratulate him on this unique achievement and look forward to helping him put in the work necessary to garner even greater success in the future." First-year coach Brett Brown had enough confidence in Carter-Williams to give him the responsibility of leading the team on the court. They traded away All-Star point guard Jrue Holiday to clear the way for Carter-Williams. With an eye toward the future, the Sixers traded Evan Turner, Spencer Hawes and Lavoy Allen in February. They have a 19.9 per cent chance at getting the No. 1 pick in this years draft and are also owed New Orleans lottery pick -- unless the Pelicans win a top-3 pick. With possibly two first-round selections, Carter-Williams and 2013 lottery pick Nerlens Noel returning from a knee injury, the Sixers could be a contender soon. "When I first got here, I really didnt know what to expect," Carter-Williams said. "I am not a person that trusts a lot of people. My circle is really close, especially when it comes to basketball, because everyone has an opinion. But I have a lot of trust in coach Brown."
