Michael Pachla: Of the Sabres World Cup "snub(s)"

Good they are rested for a long season . OReilly and Reinhart got gold medals at The worlds.

Agreed that Reinhart is a bigger "snub" than O'reilly.

I honestly think Team NA is better than Team USA. Will be tough to make the knockout stage as only the top two teams of the two groups make it.

I agree 100%

What a poop show the USA is going to get killed

I can see a point with Miller and Couterier over Reinhart being a snub, but not Nugent-Hopkins. He's better and it's not close right now.

Couterier's defensive game makes him important to have on the team.

Agreed about Miller.

I'm not even sure I'd call Miller over him a snub. Miller was really good for the Rags this year

I have no idea how Kessel is left off of the USA roster without him Pittsburghs done playing.

I guess they know the Sabres are going deep in the playoffs next year.

I think he's probably the biggest snub. After Zemgus not getting on team Europe of course. Hall I think is a close second. It's really hard to make the case for ROR to make it with the guys down the middle for Canada.

Also, wow, I just got your handle. Stripes, as in referee. Wow. Shame on me.

Hahahaha. It's only been 4 years!!!

Better late than never

Shattenkirk not making it is pretty big too but Kessel is USA's biggest.

I didn't think O'Reilly stood much of a chance only because he's Canadian.

You lost me there

RNH is better he just didn't play better last season

I agree. I would rather they were rested and able to play a full 82 game season+ for the Sabres than have them play in the World Cup. Also, maybe they will feel snubbed and it will motivate them even more this summer and upcoming season.

Different positions though, like ROR, RNH is known for being good defensively as well. And RNH at this point is more proven. In a year it might be totally different

Lots of similarities between Pizza Hut pizza and a Grateful Dead show:

both seem like the best idea ever, before it happens; in both you never know what's gonna happen....could be amazing, could leave you wanting to puke; both come with very specific and peculiar odors; your stomach is sure to pay a price in both endeavors but you still love it; almost guaranteed the next day you will hate yourself.

The grease coma I am in got me thinking about Kessel getting snubbed. What a joke!

Figured they would get enough hockey in next season...let them rest. Looking back I think MaxSig beat me to it.

That's hysterical. Grossly immature, hysterical nonetheless.
