What a great team! I will root for Canada, but I have a feeling Team USA are the favorites this year. Then again two years many thought Team USA were favored over other top contenders like Russia and Canada, and in retrospect Canada was unlucky not to win the final something like 4-2, so anything can happen!

Is Frazee the man here? I would assume he is after his under 18 showing and Schneider's less than stellar work last year.

I'm not sure. I haven't been able to find any press so far indicating who is going to be in goal for the tournament.

Very weak roster. Pineault, Dubinsky and Yandle should have been selected. Butler? Learn how to open your own doors. Blew a perfectly good chance at a gold medal.
