Jim Johannson says that some players were having better years than others and thats why they have the guys at camp that they have???

Go compare guys that were left off;

-Roslovic; 16 pts in 16 NCAA games
-Connor; 22 pts in 15 NCAA games!
-Bracco; 23 pts in 18 CHL games (94 pts in 65 games with USNDP last year)
-Garland; 73 pts in 31 CHL games (129 in 67 last year)

Guys that are there;
Ryan Hitchcock; 8 pts in 12 NCAA games. (15 in 33 last year)
Scott Eansor; 17 pts in 21 CHL games (37 in 72 last year)

USA hockey has shown politics in the past, but I will give benefit of doubt on some of these guys that they see something or have a vision. But to leave all 4 of those guys off and then say its based on the years that some guys were having is ridiculous. I know there is more to hockey than just pts but how do you leave the leading CHL scorer out of final camp? A first rounder in kyle connor that would be the 3rd leading NCAA scorer at camp? Bracco holds records for USNDP programs but we can assume him leaving for CHL had an impact too

Agree!! as a Jets fan it's very disapointing, I was looking forward to watching Ras and Conner.
