Hockey Canada officials nonetheless had kept their fingers crossed that at least one of the NHL players eligible to play in the tournament, which begins on Boxing Day in Ottawa, would be freed up to do so.

Brad Pascal, Hockey Canada’s senior director of the men’s national teams, got the word that all the eligible NHL players are staying put. The list included Kyle Turris (Phoenix Coyotes), Colton Gillies (Minnesota Wild), Steven Stamkos (Tampa Bay Lightning), Brandon Sutter (Carolina Hurricanes), Drew Doughty (Los Angeles Kings), Luke Schenn (Toronto Maple Leafs), Josh Bailey (New York Islanders) and Sam Gagner (Edmonton Oilers).
