Possibly Kulikov for Russia. Outside shots for Byfuglien, Trouba, Enstrom and Armia. Anyone else? 'tis. I think one of Trouba or Buff would be likely. I saw at least one publication (Athletic? Maybe SI?) that had Armia on FIN's 4th line. Ah thinking more about it, wouldn't affect us as much as maybe in 4 years time? Add Connor, maybe Roslovic to team USA. Perhaps Morrissey to Team Canada. Vesalainen? No one but Wheeler coming out of a lineup.

January 24, 20187 yr comment_314979 I remember Canada's National Team. How we were supposed to host the World Hockey Championship in 1970 & then some rube from Hockey Canada in Ottawa had the great idea to pull our country out of it because we considered the Soviets professional hockey players & we couldn't send ours. The sad part is that Canada's team that year was actually very good & may have given the Soviets & Czechs a run for their money. We'll never know.
January 24, 20187 yr comment_314986 Telegin is long gone and based on his stats... looking like we missed on nothing with him...
January 24, 20187 yr comment_315040 Datsyuk and Kovalchuk on the top line may be unstoppable in this tournament

We'll never know. our 1980 Olympic team was really good too, including featuring future stars Paul Maclean and Glen Anderson. They should have beat the Soviets in that Olympics but folded in the 3rd period. They sure softened up the Ruskies for the Americans though. Edited January 24, 20187 yr by kelownabomberfan

January 24, 20187 yr comment_315071 There are guys on the Canadian team playing better than Datsyk and Kovalchuck in the KHL.
January 24, 20187 yr Author comment_315077 Datsyuk is like ten years older than everyone else in the tournament... Surprised there were not more young prospects on Canada's team - I guess even guys drafted by NHL clubs are not allowed to play

February 3, 20187 yr comment_316741 man why am I not feeling the excitement this time around, I don't know if it has to do with that fact that I probably won't be able to watch it much because I'm working and thanks to the owners no NHL players are participating this time.....or maybe it's because the Russian bans got overturned Edited February 3, 20187 yr by iHeart

I would tend to agree looking at other teams beer league rosters for this that Russia should be good but... They tend to choke recently
February 14, 20187 yr comment_319263 So much for Russian domination in hockey at the Olympics! And the US loses to Slovenia! This could be a whacky Olympic hockey year.

February 14, 20187 yr comment_319372 I think the lack of NHLers has greatly increased the parity and unpredictability of the tournament
