Happy for Pacioretty to make the team - the US has a good squad again this year.

Such bad decision making. Honestly what is McDonough doing on this team?

Different position, but I honestly think leaving out Okposo was a big mistake. He deserves to be there.

That I know but besides Okposo, how are Erik Johnson, Jack Johnson, Keith Yandle and Bobby Ryan left off? Too many questionable decisions. Honestly, I would have pulled Faulk, Orpik, Martin, and McDonough & Callahan for those 4 guys.

I'd wanna keep Martin. Rest I agree with.

Shocking Ryan is left off with the big ice his speed and scoring is much needed, heard mention of a D first team, but come on, they need some Scoring too!!! Glad for Wheeler, he has 10 goals this month...I suppose big Buff was seen as a D-liability, but would have been good on the power play, big point shot, and use him as a forward to fore check, screen etc...but whatever...

I rather see Bobby Ryan over Stastny, Yandle & Jack Johnson over Oprik & Faulk

[MR.M's Cards]

yeah I wouldnt have minded seeing Ryan on the team to :(
