19 Forwards though...

so 7 aren’t going to get regular time. Here’s hoping JoePa impresses the U.S. staff and wins a starting spot.

Pavelski!

Okay, so we know that Kane, Parise, and Kesler are pretty much locks for the forwards, and we might have to throw in Ryan as well. I could see Pavelski getting in as the third or fourth line center.

Looks like they think pretty highly of him, if he leads the story.

Gotta say, I really dig the simplicty of the US jerseys this tine around. They could lose the side striping on the back, but I’m a fan of everything else.

Wish more teams in the NHL (erhem) would look at a more simplistic approach.

Unrelated, but Glen Sather actually got rid of a bad contract- Gomez headed to Montreal.

Only the Habs and their $33M in cap space could afford to absorb that contract.

Ryan McDonagh (who was sent to the Rangers) also sounds like a top notch blueliner. Glen Sather- hockey genius?

Eh, probably too far.

It's trades like these

That make the Sharks woes not seem so bad.

Heh, and make that earlier proposed deal for a Drury-Marleau swap sound like absolute anarchy.

If that happened I might just retire from blogging.

Either that, or Bob Gainey is really stupid. I vote for this.
