| Milan Lucic - Speaking of grit, Milan Lucic(notes) might be the only other play who can mix sandpaper with skilled play at Corey Perry Jersey's level. A line combination featuring the two could bring a whole new meaning to "pest" in hockey.
Following the gold medal victory by Team Canada, the debate almost instantly shifted to whether or not NHL players would be taking part in the 2014 Winter Games in Sochi,NHL Jerseys, Russia. Russian superstars like Alexander Ovechkin and Evgeni Malkin(notes) have gone on record as saying they will play regardless, and there are no doubt players from other regions hoping to represent their countries as well. A look at the potential Team Canada hockey roster for the 2014 Olympics Though it is still a few years off, and participation in the 2014 Olympics is far from guaranteed, it is still worth a shot to speculate on what Team Canada might look like if NHL players are allowed to play. Sidney Crosby(notes) - This is a no brainer, as Sidney Crosby has already proved himself to be one of the top players in the NHL and he is not even 25 years old yet. After scoring the "Golden Goal" in 2010, Crosby is the face of Team Canada and Hockey Canada would be ridiculous if they passed over Sid the Kid. Forwards The 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, British Columbia were a huge success for the hockey world. Capped off by a thrilling game between the hometown Canadians against Team USA, even non-hockey fans tuned in the get a taste of the action. Corey Perry Jersey(notes) - Another 2010 Olympic gold medalist who can be played in almost any situation, Corey Perry Jersey is invaluable to Team Canada. Corey Perry Jersey's stock is, naturally, at its peak when playing on the ring on Ryan Getzlaf(notes), but he has also played to great success with others in the past, including Sidney Crosby. Corey Perry Jersey also brings much needed grit that agitates opponents. Steve Stamkos - He just barely missed the cut for 2010, but after finishing the 2009-10 NHL season with 51 goals, and beginning the 2010-11 NHL season with a blistering hot scoring streak there is no question that Steve Stamkos will figure into Hockey Canada's plans for the future. Rick Nash(notes) - Playing for the Columbus Blue Jackets affords Rick Nash a slightly lower profile playing opportunity than he would enjoy in other markets. That does not change the fact that Rick Nash is one of the most adaptable players in the game today. His large frame and ability to put the puck in the net are his obvious strong points, but his biggest assets would have to be his willingness to play a checking role and his never ending will to compete. |
