WOW!! I know we are all part of the Lucic Crew. We all think he plays "wicked hard."
When I was watching TSN last night and they announced Lucic received an invitation to tryout for Team Canada during the summer evaluation camp, my jaw hit the floor, then my head hit the basement roof. I was surprised for 2 seconds, then, $%*&IN RIGHT!! Perfect guy for that team. The 3rd line, role playing, checking winger, that will make those "chicken swedes" wish they flew into the rafters instead of skating into the corner for the puck. 

It sure is time we see players like Milan Lucic get special consideration like this. Great to see the brass of the Olympic men's hockey team show some balls and acknowledge that Milan Lucic has what it takes to play for his country at the most highest level. At  his young age just the nod let alone playing will do wonders for his game.

I hope he makes it and I will defend his abilities and what talents he brings to this summer camp. Remember, when Canada wins Olympic Gold next February and Lucic had a "Neely Hatrick" in the gold medal game. We will see how vocal the 'nay-sayers" and critics and Montreal Fans are saying, if blabing at all.

If Canada was to have a Canada-1 and Canada-2 teams, the buzz of Milan Lucic getting an invite to this summer evaluation would be a quiet buzz.

 I am surprised no one has posted on this topic yet. Let me leave you with one thought. What happened the last time Milan Lucic played in Vancouver on a smaller but similar national and international stage!! Good things are starting   to happen to this young amazing player and he just may reach the potential tag of "Jr. Cam" sooner than most think.
