Players Who Have Withdrawn??joe blow 08-11-2004, 07:18 PM I'm not sure if this is out of curiousity or boredom, but I was wondering if we can get a list of all the players who have decided not to play since being named to the original World Cup roster for their respective countries? List any players that cross your mind, see if we can't get everyone! Thanks! Markov 08-11-2004, 07:30 PM The ones I can think of.. Russia - Danny Markov Nikolai Khabibulin Sergei Fedorov Alexei Zhamnov joe blow 08-11-2004, 07:35 PM Canada - Blake, Belfour, Yzerman ALF AmericanLionsFan 08-11-2004, 11:54 PM Roenick Schneider Seems like there are a lot of guys backing out. I understand due to injury issues, but especially the Russian team there killing my World Cup buzz. :banghead: Make 08-12-2004, 06:21 AM Finland - Kapanen McDonald19 08-12-2004, 06:50 AM Robert Lang Bobby Ryan Getzlaf 08-12-2004, 07:17 AM Pavel Kubina Valeri Bure Alexei Zhitnik Probably Evgeni Nabokov next Probably Vladimir Malakhov next(if he was chosen, and hasn't already, that is) Ned Flanders 08-12-2004, 12:21 PM Why not just make this tournament an under-25 championships? Seems the only players who wanna play are around 25 or younger. Prrebel 08-12-2004, 12:26 PM It makes me sick to think that these guys would not play for their country. At least the guys who dropped out for Canada have injuries. We have guys fighting to get on the squad, bt other country have guys fighting to get off the squad. I don't understand. | ||
