ConnorMcdavid 180 Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Imagine the excitement and pure joy of being selected to represent your country on the greatest stage of your sport. Imagine the heartbreak when your country stabs you in the back by reneging on their commitment to you just because some other jokes decided they were from a different country after all... as if their parents had screwed up their birth certificates or something. That’s where Trevor Van Lagen stands after being one of two cuts to the team Canada roster after the team had made its selection. Blame the GM? No. Blame the game? Yeah. Not only was it allowed for everyone to switch their country but it was encouraged and promoted. Do we want all equal teams or do we want to simulate a real world hockey tournament? What would I have done if I was GM of a country and others were trying to get in to steal roster spots from my fellow countrymen? “I would build a wall—and nobody builds walls better than me, believe me—and I build them very inexpensively. I would build a great, great wall on all our borders and I would make all the other wanna be hockey countries pay for that wall. Mark my words.” End rant. fonziGG, Rayzor_7, RunnerBert11 and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/63165-reneged/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks more like the eligibility list wasn't updated correctly when people FIRST submitted the lists.

Apologies for cutting you but I have to do whats best for the team. No one switched into Canada that I know of. The reason for the messy roster change was poor communication and the sheet needing updated.
