While the season will sort some of this out, here is my projected lines for the USA and Canadian Olympic Teams. Please let me know what your lines would be and why you would put in a certain player over another. It's funny that the US has a lot of right wingers at their camp and Canada has a lot of centers. It's going to force some players out of their natural positions. I would rather have Canada's problem, having a center on the wing would make me a lot more comfortable than having a winger have to take a faceoff. The Canes should be well represented in the Olympics, which I'm not sure is a good thing or not. Corvo and Gleason might have a shot at the US team. Staal and Ward should make the Canadian team. Jussi, Joni, and Ruutu should also represent Finland.
