I like your forward picks, but I'm going to give this a go myself:
E. Staal - Crosby - Giroux
Spezza - St. Louis - Stamkos
Tavares - Toews - Perry
Nash - B.Richards - Lecavalier
Extras: M Richards, Eberle
Keith - Doughty
Pietrangelo - Weber
Gerardi - Boyle
Bubble D (in order): M.Staal, Subban, Myers
Goaltending: Price-Luongo-Ward
To me, you need size or the Americans will lean on the Canadians. I don't believe in just doing a youth movement for the sake of doing it. Eberle is skilled, but at the NHL level, he's not there yet. I'd take him as an extra with the label of "let's see". I'm also not big on Seguin yet. I'd love to see my 4th line with great reach, but can also play the dirty dump and hold game, but also score. The rest of the lineup has a good combination of size and skill. As for goaltending, I'd definitely like to see Brodeur as the 3rd string just in case, but I don't think he'd be chosen because of his age. Iggy, well, I haven't been impressed with his conditioning in recent years, so even as a Flames fan, I'd keep him off. Thornton? Hell no on the Olympic ice. He may be doing well points wise, but he's a not a clutch player and will be even slower next year. Getzlaf, well let's see how he does this year.
