One of the biggest questions surrounding Team Canada heading into Saturday's coveted 4-Nations Face-Off clash against the USA is the status of star defenseman Cale Makar, who is currently dealing with an illness.
The injury to Shea Theodore and Makar's subsequent illness enabled Canada to call up Dallas Stars defenseman Thomas Harley as an emergency substitution in case they don't have the required six D-men to take the ice on Saturday night. With Harley in the building, Makar has yet to be ruled out of action, though he only practiced in a limited capacity on Friday.
