Pretty solid lineup.

Biggs and Matteau on the same line? Ouch.

Love the Vail pick. He has been carrying his poor Windsor team this year and is a two-way force. He might not be a scorer in the WJC but he'll be their best PKer and shutdown center.

I agree with you though, they lack elite talent after Galchenyuk.

Unlike Canada that could have Huberdeau, Scheifele, Nugent-Hopkins and Strome.

Really no Boucher? Thought for sure he'd be a lock on pretty much every list, especially with the Galchenyuk connection.

What do you think of Pietila making it? He's having a hell of a year, seems like he could push himself onto and energy line spot.

Boucher is a one trick pony, and seeing him whiff on so many chances given by Galchenyuk this year will probably scare USA hockey off.

One thing is sure though, he knows how to put the puck in the net, and that's always needed.
