Kyle Wanvig is the only player going to the game from Houston, but a lot behind the bench. Todd McLellan is the head coach, assistant coaches Matt Shaw and Cam Stewart, athletic trainer Jerry Meins, equipment manager Rick Bronwell.
Skills competition is Feb. 8 at 7 EST.
The game itself is Feb. 9, also at 7 EST.

Good luck to Wanvig (and the bench staff)!
As I understand it, the AHL just picks the coach and he gets to take his staff with him, so it's not like they swept the behind-the-bench spots. Not to take anything away from 'em, of course...

But as far as behind the bench goes, PlanetUSA has representatives from Bridgeport and Grand Rapids whereas the Canadian roster is all from Houston.
