Vancouver, B.C. – In response to media reports, Canada’s Men’s Olympic Team executive director Steve
Yzerman issued the following statement on Wednesday, February 10.
“Earlier today, I contacted Jeff Carter of the Philadelphia Flyers and advised him that in the event that
Ryan Getzlaf is unable to take part in the 2010 Olympic Winter Games due to injury, he will take his spot on
the roster. I asked him to be ready and prepare in case he has to join us in Vancouver later this
week.”
“In the meantime, we will give ourselves, Ryan and the Anaheim Ducks as much time this week as necessary
to determine if he will be able to play for Canada in Vancouver.”
