Hockey Canada's women's program is showing some worrying trends

Les Canadiennes had the most goals of any team in the entire Canadian Women's Hockey League. They had the top four scorers - all forwards and all Canadians - in the entire league.

They only had one forward selected to Team Canada's World Championship roster announced on Monday.

On the other side, seven forwards were named from the Calgary Inferno, Montreal's opponent in the Clarkson Cup final.

Now this is a chicken and egg thing. Players in the National Team program go to Calgary to be closer to Hockey Canada headquarters. Players like Rebecca Johnston, and Brianne Jenner played for other CWHL teams before moving to Calgary.
