The only time I've seen the US come close to matching Canada was in the 1996 World Cup (when they did indeed win). That was a pretty great team with plenty of hall of fame and all-star talent. Guys like Hull, Modano, Leetch, Lafontaine, Chelios, Leclaire, Weight, Suter, Richter etc.

This current roster has some solid names, but for me a it's still a pretty obvious step back from what Canada would send.
