Anyone know if Boris Valabik's concussion has cleared up? I haven't seen a final roster for Slovakia yet.

He is at the Team Slovakia selection camp as we speak. He's been playing with Kitchener (returned to the lineup in mid-November and played until he left for camp).

That's weird. I'd been checking Kitchener box scores every so often and hadn't seen his name at all since he first was injured. I didn't realize he'd made it back. Is he a good bet to make the Slovakian team or will they be looking for more skill than brawn?

Slovakia cutting a first rounder...I don't see that.

Eh, he's not exactly tailor-made for the international game. Does Englestad have an NHL-sized sheet of ice or an international one? The NCAA doesn't really have a standard that I'm aware of.
