I'd say Mikko Koivu or Olli Jokinen. Timonen has been our best defenceman.

Jaroslav Halak and Pavol Demitra would be obvious choices. I feel though that Marian Hossa is the glue that holds everything together.

Point a gun at me to choose one and I'd probably pick #68 though.

U.S.: either Backes or Pavelski. Both have played considerably better than some of the other team members.

For Canada, it is too hard to decide. It is a toss up between Mike Green, Jeff Carter, Martin St. Louis, and Steve Stamkos.

Definitely Backes or Pavelski, Ryan Malone has been solid as well. Malone-Pavelski-Kessel has been by far our best line, and to be honest, that's not a great thing.

For those of you saying Pavelski did you even watch the Swiss game? He was terrible. A turnover machine. Sure he turned it around in the Norway game but we have only played 2 games so I don't see how he can be considered the best when he had a bad game.

Definitely Backes.
