I like what I see here. They could make a very fast, gritty team here that may be able to bring a more physical aspect to the Olympics.

Stars fan here....... but not thrilled about Modano's invite, he's kinda old for these kids. Could we say it's just an "honorary invite" maybe and just leave it at that? Hopefully the powers-to-be will allow him to "bow out gracefully" and his spot will be filled by a more capable player.
