Really sucks for Flames fan that the move away from INTL tournaments coincided with our team having a lot of potential participants.

USA:
Gaudreau
Tkachuk
Hanafin

CAN:
Tanev? (Prob not, but really would be on any other INTL team)
Giordano
Brodie?
Hamilton?

SWE
Lindholm
Andersson
Markstrom
Backlund
Kylington?

RUS
Zadorov

When your whole core is Olympic calibre players, you should have a good time. I think some international experience for those players could have done wonders for them while they were here.
