When it comes to hockey there's no bigger place then Canada. Here we eat sleep and breath hockey and nothing else matters. So when it comes to tournaments, Canada looks to have the best team possible every tournament with the mindset of winning every tournament. Generally Canada usually wins most of the tournaments when it comes to best on best vs other countries, so to make it on a Team Canada you have to be the best of the best and beat out alot of competition.
One of the most important tournaments is the annual tournament known as the World Junior Championship that takes place every Christmas holiday. Over 30 players were invited to the World Juniors camp this year as Team Canada looks to repeat as champions. With only so many spots on the roster there's going to cuts that you may not agree with. Some of the final players cut were St. Louis Blues' prospect, Zachary Bolduc along with Montreal Canadiens' prospect Owen Beck, Columbus Blue Jacket's prospect Jordan Dumais and Florida Panther's prospect Evan Nause.
While we may not all agree with some picks, Hockey Canada tries to put out the best possible team every tournament. But some people are wondering if politics also go into making decisions. One player that was cut from the team has made some very interesting accusations against Team Canada's roster decision making, That player is Zachary Bolduc.
After Bolduc returned to his junior team Bolduc would make some interesting comments. Bolduc believes players from Quebec do not get the same chances at players from other provinces.
Bolduc, 19, failed to make Team Canada's World Junior Team this year.
He has 17 goals and 46 points through 25 games played with the Quebec Remparts in the QMJHL this season.
He was drafted 17th overall by the #Blues in 2021.
