Women’s Hockey Wednesday: Open season on Team Canada

Annie: On Friday, Hockey Canada named its centralization roster for the 2018 Olympics. On top of most of the 2017 Worlds team, the 28-woman roster came with some happy additions in the form of young, fast forwards Jillian Saulnier, Mélodie Daoust, and Sarah Nurse. I was surprised Hockey Canada passed over Saulnier before Plymouth, and both Daoust and Nurse spent this past year tearing up their respective collegiate leagues. Also new to the roster is forward Amy Potomak, little sister of Sarah, as well as defenders Micah Hart and Brigette Lacquette.
