Thanks I can't wait either. Hell it'll probably be the only significant hockey we'll see this year.

Agree with your roster just 1 mistake. Galchenyuk will be the 1st line center, while Miller will be the 2nd line center

French, how does this team stack up against the team that won gold in Alberta a couple years ago?

That's a tough one. I think the defense will be of similar if not a little better this year. Goaltending has the potential to be just as good, overall Gibson is a better goalie than Campbell. As for the forwards, I'd say this year is close, but the US had a lot of game breakers that year who had remarkable tournaments.

There are a lot of similarities.

I feel bad for the Americans this year. What a sad sack of forwards compared to Canada and Russia. Their top 2 lines will get eaten up by Canada's 4th line

Galychenuk will help the team a lot, but if the lockout continues CANADA will be unstoppable.

He has the most points on the team, 2nd place is seven points behind.

Don't mind him, he is a 13yrs old kid from Newfoundland.....he is still jerking off to his Crosby posters.

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.

I bet a 6 pack with my friend that Biggs and Morgan rielly will get more combined points than galchenyuk at the world juniors.

Now I just have to hope Biggs makes the team.

Boucher needs to make it into one of the top two lines since he really doesn't do much outside of shooting and I can't see him ahead of any of those guys.

As for Pietila, he'd be a decent choice if they are worried about Samuelsson, Matteau and Biggs getting themselves suspended during the tournament.

Was hoping Van would take Samuelsson in the draft. Gaunce is alright, but of the 2 I'll take hank s

Laughs compared Hemsky to talc? That's pretty harsh.

Although I remember myself saying that Pascal Leclaire should spend more on eating spinach and less on purchasing porcelain bone replacements.
