In the past few minutes, journalist Chris Johnston revealed some interesting information involving Cole Caufield.
As you know, Caufield was recently overlooked and not selected to be part of Team USA's roster for the Four Nations Tournament.
However, according to Johnston, who is very well-informed about the NHL, there may be a glimmer of hope for Caufield if he wishes to join his friends on the American team.
A Turn of Events Still Possible for Cole Caufield Through a Replacement
Following the bad news recently announced to Caufield, the TSN journalist has revealed that the Montreal Canadiens forward is among the top two forwards on the list for a replacement (in case of injuries, unforeseen circumstances, or other issues).
In the following article:
Johnston mentions that the two replacements at the top of Team USA's list are Cole Caufield and Tage Thompson.
Of course, no one hopes for it, but in case of any unforeseen circumstances or injuries, Caufield could still receive a call from Team USA for the Four Nations Tournament.
This is a possibility to keep in mind if an injury involving an American forward is announced before the start of the competition.
In the article, he also mentions the names of John Tavares, Wyatt Johnston, Drew Doughty, and MacKenzie Weegar as potential replacements for Team Canada.
On that note, let's not forget that the Canadiens took a jab at Minnesota GM Bill Guerin for snubbing Caufield.
We love it. A nice little jab from the Montreal Canadiens organization via social media.
And what about you? Who do you think is the biggest snub from these rosters for the Four Nations Tournament?
