No Leetch? Leetch didn't make the team?

Is this a joke?
 
I am watching the flyers game right now and as a flyers fan, having Esche on the team and not Miller is a joke. Miller has been flat out solid tonight, while Esche has been swiss cheese all season.

Yeah, it's pretty crappy for Miller. But he got that broken thumb at the complete wrong time. Plus he didn't get back in right away because Biron is on fire. He's a young kid, and we'll definitely see him battling DiPietro for the job in 2010.
 
From day one I've said that this U.S. team won't be the best that's put out on the ice... I'm not expecting a great showing in Torino and I wouldn't be surprised if they're not in the medal round.

2010 is the time for the U.S. to shine once the youngsters come into their own.

That's what I'm wondering. People call him old, yet Chelios is on it. K.

I do too. It's kind of sad.
 
Chelios gets one last ride in the USA hockey sweater.

The D looks suspect(Hatcher, Schnieder, AND Chelios is a bit old) but I like the F selection. If the team is going to make any noise, it will have to have superb efforts from the vets on the blueline.

Mara is the one person I might have added as well.
 
Gonna get smoked?

I think this is still a really solid team, would have liked to have seen them make room for Dustin Brown and Ryan Suter, probably over Jason Blake and Hatcher. But its still a solid team.


Tkachuk- Modano- Gionta
Knuble- Weight- Guerin
Cole- Conroy- Drury
Rolston- Gomez- Parrish

Schneider- Miller
Rafalski- Leopold
Chelios- Liles

DiPietro
 
Derian Hatcher is by far the most underrated player on HF boards, it's pretty sad actually. The guy has been playing really good hockey the past month and has been a defensive force (and his offensive game hasn't been too bad). My biggest concern with him would be the bigger ice because he clearly is a poor skater, but based on the beginning of the season, he's earned his spot on this team.

Why are people complaining about Chelios being there?

Probably because he hasn't been drafted in one of the more recent drafts.
