Team Canada finds itself in a challenging situation during the 4 Nations Face-Off. Every chance on the ice is crucial for them in the matchup against Team Finland today, but they cannot allow for an overtime outcome or a loss in regulation, as they might miss out on their potential rematch with Team USA in the championship game. However, the Canadian squad is missing a significant number of hockey players from the main roster.
A recent update regarding one of their star players, who has been sidelined due to illness, may raise concerns among fans. While heading to X, NHL reporter Elliotte Friedman emphasized the message conveyed by the coach, stating, “Team Canada coach Jon Cooper didn’t say much about Cale Makar. Did say Travis Konecny could come in for Seth Jarvis…but not 100 per cent.”
Makar played a crucial role in the main roster, and his absence in the game against the United States significantly affected the outcome. Indeed, the Canadian team faced a disappointing defeat against the Americans, ending the match 3-1, leaving the home fans heartbroken.
Lack of updates on Makar’s situation is bound to fuel further speculation. In addition to that, the matchup against Finland holds significant importance for Team Canada, and supporters are eager to witness the return of one of their premier defensemen to the lineup.
