USA has a lot of talent that are either young NHLers or highly touted prospects. They have two very good young goaltenders in Miller and DiPietro, a few solid young defenders in Suter, Liles and Leopold as well as 2 incredibly strong defensive prospects in the Johnsons. At forward they have guys like Cole, Gionta and Gomez who are still relatively young, young guys just breaking in such as Kessel, Umberger, Stempniak, Stastny, Stafford, and Pavelski, and big time prospects like Kane, Ryan, Okposo, Mueller and Schremp pretty close to the NHL level(yes, including Kane).
Also don't forget guys like Drury and Rafalski will still be around and most likely contributing significantly come the '10 Olympics. I really think with all this young talent, especially with the majority of it playing at the NHL level already(or most likely being there next year), team USA could be pretty dangerous in the next couple of Olympic games.
