Informative article though.

Frank the Tank said:Good article, the talent development should keep the Canada vs. USA rivalry going into the future. However, considering just the superstar centers Canada (all currently playing the NHL and that will be in 32 or less) will have in 2010, I also think that calling USA the favorite is a little premature.

VOB said:They will be better than 06, count on that. The 87 and 88 U.S. born class is right on par with that of Canada. I am not so sure about the 89 class though, as I think American talent begins to thin out. We have no Tavares or Esposito's in the pipeline.
I agree with you though, considering how young Canada's star players are and who they have coming up, Canada will be considered the favorite for a long time to come.

Hooter said:That was a comment made in the Toews thread regarding Canadian media and Canadian players, surely I can do the same in this thread just replacing Canadian with American.
