I know most people are canadian or american on this board, but all countries can be included in this. for canada i think it will be:

Nash
Spezza
Bouwmeester or Bergeron

also, who are the shoo ins for your country?

for canada (in no particular order)

Bertuzzi, Sakic, Iginla, Broduer, Luongo, Jovanovski, Blake, Pronger, Thornton, Tanguay, S. Neidermayer, St. Louis, Foote, Nash, Spezz(those two only because of under 22 rule).
On the bubble: Heatley, Brewer, Redden, Madden, Peca, Morrison, Bouwmeester, Bergeron, Shanahan, Lecavalier, Richards, recchi, Souray, Mccabe.

I agree 100%! Fernholm is my favourite for 3rd man, he's the oldest of them and he won't be pushed around by anyone :)

If the staff feels to need to create an optimal lineup with just one youngster, Finland could also give Lehtonen the backup's job and drag Toivonen along as the third goalie. In case of injuries among the young 'uns, the third best alternative after Pitkänen and Ruutu is to shackle Bergenheim to a purely defensive checking role. After that there wouldn't really be anyone worth letting onto the ice.

Slovakia
Peter Budaj- Avs` farm- third goalie
Milan Jurcina- Bruins` farm- defense- could play while we don`t have def depth
the third one is questionable, but he has no chance to play
candidates- Igor Pohanka- Cincinnati
Tomas Slovak- Hershey
Richard Stehlik- Lewiston
