What do you think the rosters are going to be for your home country's team? Remember that players who are in the playoffs don't participate in this because they take place at the same time.
My Canadian Roster
Roy- Lecavalier- St. Louis
Horton-Toews-Pominville
Dumont-Kariya-Boyes
Nash-Comrie-Doan
Defence
Weber-Bouwmeester
Keith-Boyle
Jovanovski-Blake
I don't really know for goalies, maybe Luongo if he wants to go, but I'd doubt it. Maybe Legace?

That's true. And I didn't know they had announced the players. I didn't see it anywhere so I went ahead with some guesses.

No problem. I like watching this tournament too, but I wish it wasn't during the playoffs. If all the good players could be there and it was taken more seriously, not as an after-thought like it is now, it would be much more fun. Like the soccer world cup.

Ouch, yeah. Canada's great on the international scene. This year they're in their own country too, so that might motivate them even more.
