by Susan SlusserFiled under: Canucks, Olympic Hockey, FanHouse ExclusiveThe USA Olympic orientation camp made for some strange bedfellows. Vancouver forward Ryan Kesler found himself rooming with T.J. Oshie of the Blues, who'd sent some cheap shots Kesler's way in the past, according to Kesler. "I wasn't a fan," Kesler told FanHouse by phone this week. "And Paul Stastny once got me with a stick on a faceoff and chipped a couple of my teeth. But we sat down and talked and they're good guys. Stastny apologized for high-sticking me in the face." Could it be that some of the other USA hopefuls felt equally ambivalent about Kesler going into the camp?Ryan Kesler Is Back From Camp and Likes USA's Chances originally appeared on Fanhouse NHL Blog on Sat, 22 Aug 2009 12:00:00 EST .

Via  |  August 21, 2009
Mason Raymond has had his fair share of time to prove himself to the Canucks organization, the NHL and fans alike, but what proof has he delivered? With speed which puts him in the NHL's top percentile and a league which is encouraging a speed and skill game Raymond has yet to deliver what many think could be a solid top-6 level of play. In 121 NHL games Raymond has accumulated...

Congrats on the Wedding, Mats, but are You Playing Again?

Via Bleacher Report  |  August 23, 2009
I am sure we all wish Mats Sundin all the best with his forthcoming nuptials.  But he will have people wondering what he is going to do until he either retires or announces he is coming back.  Here's a fan's take on it. First of all, if he comes back, he has to come back for a whole season.  Wherever he lands, it just isn't feasible to do the half-season thing again.  But was...
