Ithink Chelios will have retired by then but w/him who knows





How does everyone see the roster playin out in 2yrs. I left off wild card prospects (Porter, Gerbe)|||Hockey USA has already stated that they will be going with younger players to Vancouver.





The third goaltender may be Robert Esche, he's a very good friend of Hockey USA and has represented them several times including 2006 in Turin.





For defense, both Erik and Jack Johnson are pretty much locks to be on the team as well as Ryan Suter. Tom Gilbert has impressed the brass at Hockey USA as well.





For forwards, Umberger will be there before Booth. Don't expect Gerbe to be there, Darcy Regier said yesterday that he's not ready for the NHL yet, and if he's not ready for the NHL now, he certainly won't be among America's 13 best forwards in 13 months (nor does he fit the Brian Burke model). I would be surprised if Knuble and Guerin are there as well as that does not fit Hockey USA's youth movement (and I would expect to see players such as Pandolfo, Chris Clark, and Ryan Kesler to get consideration as defensive players)|||No Kessel? Neither of the Johnson's will be ready? Komisarek? Whitney? Schneider an outside chance? Suter ready by then? Mueller? Blake Wheeler? How about Umberger, Chris Higgins? You need more youth...remember it is still over a year away.





Chelios, whether playing or not will not be there...if he is then that is a huge mistake.|||I think we should go back to the way it used to be and play with some college guys. Imagine the passion that that team would play with.|||Needs more Kessl.|||sounds good...go usa..|||yeah thats good but honestly we will get destroyed by canada or sweden or whoever. im american and im not afraid to admit that will suck|||forwards-
