SAVARD STILL FIGHTING FOR A SPOT ON CANADA


Marc Savard of the Bruins is upset that he has not been invited to Hockey Canada's recent Olympic orientation camp in Calgary. "I was pretty upset about it," said Savard, according to the The Bruins Blog, official blog of the NHL team. "I thought that I had a good chance to at least go to the camp. And I didn't really come out saying anything. I had a lot of calls for a couple weeks after that. It was something I didn't want to talk about. I was pretty mad about it. I've had to prove myself over and over again and I'm hoping to get off to a good start to the NHL season. I still haven't counted myself out. So I guess that's all that matters." The last 3 season's with the Boston Bruins Savard had 262 points. No one else expect Sidney Crosby, Joe Thornton, Vincent Lecavalier, Jarome Iginla, and Martin St. Louis had 262 points in 3 seasons.
