I don't have a link but I read on the weekend that it is all but confirmed that Olivier Michaud will not be invited to the WJC training camp this year. Apparently he has been replaced by Marc Andre Fleury of the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles. Anyone else here this? It was in the Halifax papers on the weekend written by a CP journalist

Well I read over the weekend that he was a lock for the team, and most likely the starter, but that didn't make sense to me. From what I heard, Michaud was very bad at the Team Canada camp over the summer, and with his horrid start, it makes sense that he wont be there. I am surprised that he didn't even get invited to this camp, as he has been playing better lately.
Last year, Michuad was on one of the best teams in the Q, and this year, they lost that strong defence that was giving up only 20 or so shots a game. Now his defence is giving up 35+ shots a night, and Michaud is getting shelled.
Hindsight is 20/20, but it is starting to look like Savard signed the wrong goalie. It was between Michaud and Adam Russo (AC Titans, Ferland's team). Russo is playing very good this year, but then again so is his team.

I always thought people started getting excited a little too quickly when it comes to Michaud. Hopefully this reduces expectations a little.
