I am going to project the best possible lineup (i.e. mine) that gives Canada the best shot at earning the gold.

 Alexei Yashin led the RSL in postseason scoring, beating Morozov (but playing six more games). It is interesting to note that future Maple Leaf Nikolai Kulemin had 29 penalty minutes in just 11 postseason contests. He could offer value in a few categories next season... it would seem. Big news here, for those of you who trusted [...]

 The Edmonton Sun is reporting that Riley Nash is impressing in development camp. The 19-year-old two-way pivot is three years away from making the big club, and should be a second-line center.

 The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette is reporting that Malkin was fighting a virus for the first week and a half of the Final and he had trouble keeping food down. That explains a lot.  As expected, both Bret Hedican and Glen Wesley have retired. Hedican may latch onto a team in California, but his hip is so [...]
