for my 6000th post...I will post my ideal team for Canada, probably will get fails left right and center for this one and its LONG

GOALIES

1.Brodeur
2. Luongo
3. Fluery

Give the ball for Marty to run with it, he's gonna have one element that other goalies might not develop on no more and thats the ability to play the puck behind the net. He will be very active at that and it will allow Canada to gun faster. I think these are locks to make the team

Defense

Pronger/Weber
Neidermyer/Boyle
Duncan Keith/Brent Seabrook

Doughty

This gives the team some the defensemen that can SHUTDOWN yet be that anchor on the PP. Keith and Seabrook are are massive shutdown pair. Doughty as the 7th man, give him some experience being around the men, but for sure, he like the rest have the ability to shut the door yet be a stud offensively. This seems to be the trend with the D as more teams reveal their olympic rosters

FORWARDS

Iginla Crosby Nash
Perry Getzlaf Stamkos
Marleau Thornton Heatley
Smyth Doan Richards

Martin St.Louis

Probably a questionable lineup. I have a big issue with Thornton, and its been showing in the month of december. I dont care how many points he puts up a night, but the fact that he doesnt move his legs is hurting hte production of heatley and Marleau, those two can be better, BUT they have awesome chemistry and deserve to be here. If Getzlaf is ok to go, than this line could be a threat. Stamkos can absolutley play the wing. and if Getzlaf isnt ready to go, Stamkos can slot to teh center and St.louis can come in.
The Richards Doan Smyth line should provide the grit and play a big shutdown game if asked to. You could also see what I have as the top line to play a more defensive role if they have to. Doan can play wing is Richards can center the line. They both work

St.Louis as the 13th forward becuz he's a SMART hockey player. I decided to leave out Jeff Carter only becuz well, scoring 46goals last year doesnt mean your a smart player. Stamkos i feel has better vision for the ice, and along with Crosby, should be the two leading Canada into the future. Vinny..thats too bad, like big Joe, the laziness in his game where he just for whatever reason decides to stop skating is a liability.

the biggest thing about this team is SIZE. All the D can play a physical game along with the forwards. The forwards, as big as some of them are, can play a very fast and finesse game when needed to.

I wonder how many of these I will get right. probably only the goalies hahaha.
