Description
Bored so I decided to throw together what I think the lines for Team USA could be. I think Abdelkader, Van Riemsdyk, and Palmieri will kind of rotate and be the "healthy scratches" up front. On the back end I think Niskanen will usually be the odd man out. I also would role with Bishop as the starter, but Quick has more experience winning and just in general. If it's a semifinal game or gold medal game I would have to go with Quick. Schneider will get a couple starts as well. Overall I think USA has some solid scores up front and a couple good "checking lines" to slow down the opponent. D is solid and there is a ton of depth in net. I wouldn't count out USA as a gold medal contender but on paper they are one of the weakest in the tournament.

J, johnson over NisCANNON?!?!?!?

quick is not the goalie a lot of people think he is. his stats are boosted by team performance and style, and even so his numbers arent great. Id take schneider or bishop over quick any day
