Their german line up is totally wrong, so not sure if you should rely heavily on it. But, I think it's possible Bishop starts tonight or against Denmark.

That lineup is just listing players in numerical order.

The German lineup on there is from the Olympics.

Are the line ups published yet?

Nope, but they have Greiss and other unavailable players in the line up

Hey Parise, please come to Germany

[usahockey22flyers]

hahahahaha....Hello, Phil Kessel, you there????

Paging Chris Drury, why arent they answering there phones?

 

[Other Little Mikey]

hahahahaha....Hello, Phil Kessel, you there????

Why isn't Kessel there? Was he injured or something?

 

[AmericanDream]

Why isn't Kessel there? Was he injured or something?

I guess he had some form of an abdominal tear...but never declined as far as we know...I keep throwing him out there because I still feel he will come on board but told USA Hockey that he wouldn't be able to come until elimination round started....so I am keeping my fingers crossed that Phil Kessel is one of the final two players we add to this squad.

Anyone want to give American fans like myself some type of hope....

One game means nothing, especially for a group of guys that haven't played together, and most of them haven't played a real game for over 2 weeks. This is pretty typical for the World Championships, the first game is always a feeling out process for teams like Canada and the US.

Plus Germany had some much going for them, the building and the hype and the adreneline. Its not panic time yet.

 

[Kurrilino]

Can anyone tell me where all the Americans are,is there a reason for not apearing to the Worlds ?????

I mean that lineup is just pathetic.
The Defense is kind of ok but....... the offense....
You can put an AHL team together that has more scoring drive
Are they happy with their Olympics silver medal ?????

They had better use the remaining two open roster spots wisely.

In my opinion your comment was completely biased and pathetic. The defense is probably the best in the tournament and the offense has some bright spots. You will see.

 

[Ilyeu]

The defense is probably the best in the tournament

um no, not even close.

 

[usahockey22flyers]

Jack Johnson? Keith Yandle? Andy Greene? Matt Greene? .. J/johnson was an olympian.. yandle and Greene probably would have olympic replacements if they would have been blood tested or whatever in the summer... whos better?

I would disagree that they have the best defense in the tournament. But the team is better than their first game.

 

[usahockey22flyers]

whos better? Canada has a decent core but i think they are known for more of the offense... i think america has atleast the best top 4 d-men with Johnson/Yandle.. Greene/greene

 

[therealdeal]

I would personally take Canada's before the US. Couple shut down guys in Staal and Beauchamin, good puck movers, lots of speed and compusure.

I don't see that with the US squad, they got a big boost with Johnson but after that it gets a bit thin.

 

[usahockey22flyers]

Francois Beauchemin shutdown dman? Guy has been a minus dman the last 3 years.. And keith yandle fits that prescription of puck mover/speed fine. 41 points on the year.

but i do see what your saying with myers/staal/giordano
