Team Finland always has weak looking forwards on paper, but they always do well.
Guys like Hansen and Nielsen for team Europe don't look sexy but they'll work hard and are good players in a third line role.
Team Europe has way more, and better two way players than the under 23s for example.
Guys like Hossa, Kopitar, Chara, Josi, Nielsen.
Team Under-23's prize D-man Ekblad plays less than a minute per game on the PK........
I really think inexperience is going to bite them in the ass.
