Team USA uses some NHLers while Canada does not.

Good to see some new names, this is Poss's debut correct?

Interesting to see that Schauer is not on the roster. I would have assumed that since he is now with Nueremburg, he would have been selected.

Has anybody seen him play this year? Is he improving?

Is Mirko Lüdemann injured ?

@rebeeler: Yes, it's Poss' debut.

@stv11: No, Lüdemann is fine. I guess (and hope) that Poss gives him some rest - like Zach did also sometimes - and that he has a save spot for the big tournaments, e.g. WC. If not, I don't know what's going on.

Btw. there's already a Deutschland-Cup thread in the "International Tournaments" section.
