Cheap Los Angeles Angels Jerseys . The win puts the final playoff berth in Group A in question. If the Czechs beat Slovakia on Tuesday, they will go through.

LOUIS -- Walking Billy Hamilton to start the ninth inning was a bad sign for Trevor Rosenthal.Hockey Canada President Bob Nicholson is urging the NHL to look at raising the age of draft eligibility to 19 years old. Commenting on a document he submitted to the NHL and the NHL Players Association, Nicholson made the suggestion, believing the majority of Canadian players are not ready for NHL action in their draft year. "I think right now its like a hundred-yard dash for our players to be moving up a division," Nicholson told TSN Radios Bryan Hayes Monday. "We should slow that down and make sure that players stay at the level they should be at and become superstars." At present there are 10 Canadians in the NHL aged 19 or younger. Of those, only three – Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, Mark Scheifele and Sean Couturier - were selected in this summers draft. Nicholson expressed interest in creating an exceptional player rule that would allow some 18-year-olds access to the draft, in much the same manner that the OHL has granted underage players such as John Tavares early eligibility. "We dont want to put a road-block here for exceptional players," Nicholson said. "If a player is good enough to play in the National Hockey League at the age of 18, he should be able to do thhat. wholesale nfl jerseys. " Nicholson would not go so far as to say how exactly those players should be chosen, saying that details of that nature would have to be worked out between the NHL and the Players Association. The idea is one of many possible changes that could be implemented when negotiations begin on a new NHL Collective Bargaining Agreement. The current pact expires at the end of the 2011-12 season. "I think that both the NHL and NHL Players Association will take this inside," Nicholson said. "Theyll have very good discussion on what is best for each side." Hockey Canada may not be alone in trying to buy prospects more development time. Nicholson said he was encouraged by recent discussions with governing bodies from other nations at the International Ice Hockey Federations semi-annual meeting. "I would think any of the other organizations would want to slow that down," Nicholson said, before once again stressing the need to let exceptional players through. Whether or not the suggestion has legs remains to be seen. However, with Canadian players accounting for just under half of the players drafted since 2007, the change could have large-scale effects across the league. cheap jerseys wholesale jerseys ' ' '
