2 is better than one
Taking my cue from the Team Canada thread, what are your ideas for who should be on the U.S. team? My thoughts:
Forwards. There will be some turnover due to age, injuries, quality of play. Here is who I think are definates:
Modano, Amonte, Tkachuk, Weight, Guerin, Drury, Roenick. That leaves five roster spots. Potential additions: Hull, LeClair, Rolston, York, Konowalchuk, Gomez, Langenbrunner, Parrish, Legwand, Cole.
Defense. Again, some turnover is definate. My definates:
Leetch, Miller, Schneider, Rafalski. That leaves three to four additonal players. Potential additions: Mara, Hedican, Hill, Klee, Berard, Leopold, Carney, Hatcher, Liles, Weinrich, Poti, Gill, Chelios.
Goaltenders. Again, some turnover. Definates:
Esche, DiPietro. That leaves one spot. Potential additions: Grahame, Conklin, Dunham, Johnson, Boucher, Johnson.
Here's my team (there will be three extra players due to the roster being up to 26 players, these are "extras"):
LeClair-Modano-Hull
Tkachuk-Roenick-Amonte
Konowalchuk-Weight-Guerin
Drury-Legwand-York
Extras: Rolston and Gomez
Leetch-Carney
Schneider-Miller
Rafalski-Chelios
Mara-Leopold
Extra: Hatcher
Esche
Dunham
DiPietro
