Perry-Toews-Sharp

Webber-Boyle
Keith-Seabrook
Doughty-Girardi
Letang

Luongo
Price
Fleury

Note: very tempted to include Tavares on this list however couldn`t justify Toews + Bergeron as the only returning centres due to Crosby`s injury + Richards and Getzlaf`s atrocious play this season.

What would your rosters look like??
Loui is a swede

Kessel Kesler Kane (no, I am not a racist)
Parise Staz Ryan
JVR Pavelski Backes
Oshie Pominville Patches

Yandle JJ
Fowler Suter
EJ Orpik

Miller, Quick Howard

Timmy if he's up for it.

That said, I would LOVE to see JJ and Suter paired up together. It won't happen but going to Russia and the backstory is pretty cool

So what if it did?

He was the reason we even had a chance to win that game.

You are making the exact same mistake we made in 98 and 06. We can't send all these big, bruting powerforwards, because it's the BIG ICE again this year. Those speedy euros will skate circles around us.

No Thornton, Iginla, Marleau.

Add Tavares, Spezza, Eberle.

Good looking lineup. I think USA would look like this:

Kessel-Stastny-Ryan
Parise-Kesler-Kane
Van Riemsdyk-Pavelski-Backes
Brown-Pominville-Callahan
Dubinsky

Yandle-Suter
Fowler- E. Johnson
McDonagh-Carlson
J. Johnson

Quick
Howard
Miller
