.........as long as Price doesn't think he's playing against the Sens, he'll be fine.

I'd take Ladd and Letang over Perron and Green. Embarassment of riches that we could field a second team with that much talent.bcool wroteCOLONTaylor Hall - Thornton - Giroux

Nash v St. Louis v Giroux is the only head scratcher for me. Marleau, Carter are terrific penalty killers so I understand the desire to want them on your bottom 6. I'd have taken Giroux over Nash personally. Feel bad for Marty though. He's going to retire after this having been left off the last 2 olympic teams while being top 10 in scoring virtually every year.bcool wroteCOLONKunitz - Crosby - Stamkos

Kopitar, Stoll, Richards and Lewis all PK more per game than Carter so not sure how terrific of a PKer he is. I expect he won't be in the top 12 anyways though so probably won't see much of him.SuperMario wroteCOLON

Carter has always been known to be a great PKer. He just plays on a team with a lot of other great PKers. I definitely think Carter is in the top 12. He can slot anywhere. I'm hoping Nash is out of the top 12. Not sure who the second guy will be though. Likely MarleauBruyns wroteCOLONKopitar, Stoll, Richards and Lewis all PK more per game than Carter so not sure how terrific of a PKer he is.

I think Marleau will be in the top 12 based on the fact that he can PK.SuperMario wroteCOLONCarter has always been known to be a great PKer. He just plays on a team with a lot of other great PKers.

Yeah I'm cool with that. Toews/Sharp. Bergeron/Marleau. Getzlaf/CarterCAM wroteCOLONTSN had Toews and Sharp on unit 1 with Bergeron on 2nd.
13/7 if I listened at allBruyns wroteCOLONI don't recall how olympic play works for roster size. Are we able to dress 13 F and 7 D per game or is it the standard 12 and 6?
