Team USA's Olympic roster?

[Canuck21t]

Well, Canada is supposed the country for hockey. I've already seen comments in threads elsewhere saying that Canada's "3rd" team could win. Canada isn't as great as they think anymore. Sweden will have a good squad. Finland gave them a good run at the World Cup, Russia will have a good squad.

I never thought that Canada's third team could beat Russia's, Czech Republic's, Sweden's nor Finland's first team but it could beat Slovakia's and the US'.

Here's some interesting comments on some of the players who didn't make the squad. Not very classy the way Leetch was handled I must say:

Any team with players of NHL skill level could beat any team full of player's with NHL skill level. USA's B team could beat Canada's A team if they just flat out played better. Likely? No. Impossible? Hardly.
