@dudacek and yet we have this report that indicates Power hasn't been talked to yet and Michigan also hasn't been talked to yet. 

Yes, I saw that. I am sure that Morreale's report is exactly what Michigan told him.

It is entirely possible that none of these reports are contradictory.

A) A source from Power's camp told Friedman that Power will go if they want him

B) A source from Hockey Canada told Friedman that they want him.

C) Power and Michigan have talked about whether or not he can go

D) Hockey Canada has not asked Power to go yet, but intends to and expects to, and that he will say yes.

It is also possible that Friedman's information is more up-to-date on the situation than Morreale's or that Friedman is making things up.

We will find out soon.

No no no.  The press has an agenda.

Well, you have to give him credit for at least attempting humility.  That's, unfortunately, a rare commodity in sport these days.

Michigan must be loving the idea of losing Power, Johnson, Beniers (maybe Luke Hughes) to the Olympics. Maybe Sweden will take Portillo just to twist the knife.😁

Well I still don't get it.  Power did not go to last year's WJC because he would miss too much time away from school (per reports) and now he's willing to go away from school for longer to the Olympics in China?

He might as well sign with the Sabres now and get on with his NHL career.

Surprised Ryan Johnson not on the USA radar and Brock Faber is for the Gophers.

Same. I like Faber a lot but Ryan Johnson is the other part of that pairing. 

Good news is Johnson should be signed this April and brought into the fold.
