ST. CATHARINES, Ont. - Connor McDavid won dinner from Erie Otters teammate Dylan Strome, Bobby Orr won $100 from Don Cherry and Travis Konecny may have earned some better draft considerations from his impressive showing at the CHL top prospects game.Konecny scored two goals and forced the turnover that led to another. Konecny of the Ontario Hockey Leagues Ottawa 67s skated with Connor McDavid and Timo Meier, and that line was a huge reason why Team Orr beat Team Cherry 6-0 at Meridian Centre on Thursday night.Its definitely not hard playing with those two guys, Konecny said. They make it easy for everyone around them, and youve just got to wait and when the puck hits your stick you just put it on the net.Ranked 26th among North American skaters on NHL Central Scoutings midterm list, Konecny was the best in off-ice testing Wednesday and then stood out again in the game playing with and against his peers. He said he wasnt out to prove anything.I think every player in their draft year wants to prove to everyone that they can be the best they can be, the London, Ont., native said. I try not to look at the rankings and Im just going to do what I can do get a team to like me and just hope I can get as high as I can.Konecny scored on a semi-breakaway, beating Owen Sound goaltender Michael McNiven high glove side and then on a give-and-go with Meier. He had the big hit that helped get McDavid the puck on Meiers goal, the second of the night for Team Orr.Defenceman Ryan Pilon and forwards Nathan Noel and Paul Bittner scored for the team coached by Boston Bruins legend Bobby Orr. Goaltenders Nick McBride of the Western Hockey Leagues Prince Albert Raiders and Liam Herbst of the 67s combined for the shutout.Strome had a strong game for Team Cherry and was that sides player of the game. McDavid won the side bet of dinner, and most importantly to Strome, the game.Id much rather win the game and not get that award, Strome said. Id much rather be hoisting that trophy right now than getting whatever prize I got.Samuel Montembeault of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey Leagues Blainville-Boisbriand Armada stopped 15-of-17 shots he faced, and McNiven made eight saves.McDavid showed off flashes of the speed and skill that will make him the top pick in Junes NHL draft. He finished with one assist.It went all right, McDavid said. Obviously the team did very well and its nice to get the win. Personally I thought it was all right. I had a couple chances that I wish I couldve buried, but it really doesnt matter.Konecny said the little things McDavid did to open up ice for him and Meier shouldnt go unnoticed. One thing Cherry noticed was McDavid taking his foot off the gas when the game was a blowout.I saw where he couldve taken some shots — showing mercy to us, Cherry said. I really believe when he got up 4-0 that he let up. Im not saying hes Bobby Orr, but Bobby used to do the same thing. When wed be up 5-1 or something like that, you could see him back off. McDavid looked pretty good.With NHL arenas dark for the first night of the all-star break, the CHL top prospects game took centre stage in the hockey world. Over 200 scouts from all 30 NHL teams were in attendance to see 40 of the best draft-eligible prospects playing major junior hockey.Theres people watching every game, so you just got to block it out as much as you can, Strome said. Obviously there was a big pile of people in the corner there, but other than that I just tried to focus on the game.Prime Minister Stephen Harper was also in the building. Harper spoke to players before the game and tweeted that he got an autographed jersey from McDavid, who signed it on Orrs back.It was McDavids first time meeting Harper, and he said it was awesome to be able to sign a jersey for the Prime Minister.Notes — There was a moment of silence before the game to honour the memory of RCMP Constable David Wynn. ...

Joseph Noteboom Jersey . LOUIS -- The St.SOCHI, Russia -- Martin St. Louis is going to get a chance to represent his country at the Winter Olympics after all. Hockey Canada announced today that the 38-year-old Tampa Bay forward will replace injured Lightning teammate Steven Stamkos on Canadas mens hockey team at the Sochi Olympics. "I heard from Stammer that he wasnt going to go, so I knew it was a possibility," St. Louis told reporters in Tampa on Thursday. "So I guess I was prepared for it." St. Louis said he felt bad for Stamkos, who tried hard to come back from a broken right tibia he suffered in a Nov. 11 NHL game before being ruled out of Olympic competition by the Lightnings medical staff on Wednesday. "I think weve got to understand how hard hes tried and worked to put himself in the position hes in and give himself a chance," St. Louis said. "Obviously hes disappointed and Im disappointed for him. Stammers a true professional and hes done everything he can this past month to get back to the lightning first and hopefully to Team Canada." St. Louis was considered one of Canadas most surprising snubs when Canadas team was first announced, along with Philadelphia forward Claude Giroux and Pittsburgh forward James Neal. The Laval, Que., native led the league in points in the 2012-13 shortened season with 17 goals and 43 assists in 48 games. He is having another strong campaign in 2013-14 with 54 points (25 goals, 29 assists) in 56 games, good for 11th in the league. "I dont see this as Marty replacing me, I see it as Marty deserving a spot on this team and going over and hopefully bringing back a gold medal," said Stamkos in the same news conference. St. Louis has won two World Championsship silver medals for Canada over his career.dddddddddddd He played in the 2006 Turin Olympics, scoring two goals and an assist in Canadas disappointing seventh-place finish. St. Louis went on a 10-game point streak (eight goals, six assists) for the Lightning after first being left off Canadas team, announced on Jan. 7. He said the snub had nothing to do with his increased production, but his play of late might have given him the edge over Giroux and Neal. "I dont think its motivation. Ive been motivated the past four years ... the past 10 years. If youre not motivated, youre not even considered for these things. His speed could be a benefit to Canada, which has struggled in the Olympics when playing on the larger international ice surface. Canada won gold in Salt Lake City in 2002 and in Vancouver in 2010 playing in NHL-style arenas, but was left off the podium in Nagano, Japan in 1998 and Turin, Italy in 2006. "Obviously its a bigger ice surface. It think my quickness, my speed ... thats what Im going to rely on," St. Louis said. "Its a different game, but I think whatever game plan we come up with, its going to be well thought-out." Stamkos is confident that his teammate can fill any position on Team Canada. "Hes going to go over there and play whatever role possible. I personally think hes going to play a big role," said Stamkos. "The character that he has, the way hes played in big-game situations in the past. I mean, hes won individual awards, hes won the team championships, hes been in those situations. "Its not like its a young guy thats never been in these situations before filling in for someone. This is a guy who can step in and play any role asked."
