The GB lines were mixed up quite a bit over the two matches. The Dowd line with the two Davies' looked good in the first game and the Nottingham line of Clarke, Myers and Lachowicz was reformed.
I think that Hill, Jon Phillips and Garside will form one of the lines for the World Championship as they worked well together.
Famer and Dave Phillips didn't ice in either game due to "day to day" injuries.
Very surprised, and disappointed at the cuts today:
McCluskey, Griffin, Haywood and Boxill. The latter two would be expected as they were only brought in at the last minute but both played well in the two games and picked up three or four points between them. McCluskey and Griffin really should be going in my mind. They are the future of GB hockey and we are going back to the tried and tested Meyers and Kevin Phillips rather than looking at up an coming players. In a group where GB will need to create more offence its seems we have dropped two offensive blue liners for two defensive ones.
In this weaker group we should be looking at the younger players, next year Weaver and Tait may not be there and throwing in internationally inexperienced players, if we get promoted back to 1A, concerns me.
