Lecavalier is out with wrist surgery. And I would say Roloson had the best season of any Canadian goalie not in the playoffs. He has been amazing. |

I was just about to mention the Lecavlier/Roloson thing but work had other plans. I don't see any reason why fisher couldn't contribute to this team. I would also find spots for Schenn, Horton, Pommiville, Stamkos and Gagner in place of Ranger, Lombardi, Arnott, and either one of Roy/Horcoff/Fisher. |

Pominville plays for the U.S.
Crosby is not the Lord & Savior of the NHL, get over yourself McGuire. Gretzky has never once high-sticked a member of the Toronto Maple Leafs. |

He is right, Pominville played for the US in last years worlds and said he will again this year if invited, it is so he can play for there olympic team, which he feels he has a better chance of making then Canadas, you see his mother is born in the US so he can play for them.
CANUCKS RULE!!!

You realize Arnott is close to a point a game and has way more grit than anyone else on this list. He is clutch! |

I think this would look like a great team for the teams that didn't make the Playoffs
Dany Heatley, Mike Ribeiro, Martin St. Louis Ryan Smyth, Jason Spezza, Shane Doan Andrew Brunnette, Todd White, J.P Dumont Cory Stillman, Derek Roy, Bryan Little
Jay Bouwmeester, Shea Weber Sheldon Souray, Tom Gilbert Kyle Quincey, Cam Barker
Dwayne Roloson Marty Turco
others would be Luke Schenn, Drew Doughty, Stephen Weiss, Dustin Penner

No offense Mike Fisher is overrated, He doesn't deserve it.. Jason Arnott is more like it, but we need youth, speed and skill. There is no way Arnott or Fisher can compare to Ribeiro, Spezza, White or Roy... When Arnott was younger no doubt he'd make it no problem, but not now |

Hanley, I don't understand a few picks of yours. Especially the non-canadians and players who are canadian with dual-citizenship like Pominville who will play for the US.

Smyth is injured and had surgery, so he is unavailable.
I would make the line up as this
Heatley - Spezza - St. Louis Brunette - Ribero - Doan Stillman - Roy - JP Dumont Sullivan - Arnott - Upshall
Bouwmeester - Souray Weber - Burns Jovonovski - Rivet
Turco Roloson Elliot

Heatley was born in Germany, but he always has played for Team Canada. The place of birth is not always the deciding factor. It has to do with your Nationality, meaning where your parents are from, as well as place of Birth. Heatley could have played for Germany or Canada. He chose Canada, so he can not go back and play for German.
Much like Pominville, who was born in Canada but plays for the US. |

Here is the preliminary roster as posted by CBC. It stated 20 spots are filled with 5 left open for players from teams eliminated in the 1st round of the NHL playoffs. (My team posted above had 8 of the players correct. Ouch!).
I'm wondering who was asked that said no???
Team Canada roster: Goalies:
Dwayne Roloson, Edmonton Oilers Josh Harding, Minnesota Wild Fred Brathwaite, Mannheim Eagles (Germany)
Defenceman:
Dan Hamhuis, Nashville Predators Drew Doughty, Los Angeles Kings Chris Phillips, Ottawa Senators Luke Schenn, Toronto Maple Leafs Shea Weber, Nashville Predators Ian White, Toronto Maple Leafs Joel Kwiatkowski, Severstal Cherepovets (Russia)
Forwards:
Scottie Upshall, Phoenix Coyotes Derek Roy, Buffalo Sabres Steven Stamkos, Tampa Bay Lightning Shawn Horcoff, Edmonton Oilers Mike Fisher, Ottawa Senators Dany Heatley, Ottawa Senators Matthew Lombardi, Phoenix Coyotes Shane Doan, Phoenix Coyotes Colby Armstrong, Atlanta Thrashers Martin St. Louis, Tampa Bay Lightning James Neal, Dallas Stars Jason Spezza, Ottawa Senators |

By the way I made this forum before I became a member and I'd just like to say something to everyone who made fun of me for putting Phillips and Fisher on it.
HA HA
I'm guessing Souray declined

I'm guessing a lot of players declined... Looks like a very weak team. Too many Sens players... I can see Heatley and Spezza, but guys like Phillips, Fisher, Harding, Brathwaite, Hamhuis, Kwiatkowski, Upshall, Lombardi, Armstrong and James Neal... They could have a much better team than this |

The big line from last year (Heatley, Nash, and Getzlaf) could be reunited with first round losses from Aneheim and Columbus.
You miss 100 percent of the shots you don't take Wayne Gretzky |
