Other than Weber over Pronger and Nash over Yzerman (I realize Yzerman is a center but just move him to RW on an all time list), the list looks good.

I'd put in MSL or Perry over Nash personally. Never felt Nash was a huge contributer. That's only if the positions automatically forbid the huge wealth of amazing centers we have from simply playing wing lol. Heatley is justifiable if we're thinking everyone is in peak form.

Surprised to see Iggy, but he should be there. Surprised to see Nash, could have moved someone over like the team often did. Surprised there's no McDavid. Not that I think He should be there, I don't, but these people often seem to think so highly of Him.

Only two players from the 72 Summit series does seem like a bit of a miss to me. Now Esposito and Henderson absolutely dominated for Canada (and the numbers seem to prove it out) but Clarke was also pretty good. He also played in 76 but didn't do much.
No love for Dryden or Rogie Vachon?

I never liked it and this just helps me to validate my disdain for that title on Smyth.

World Championships.
Players from non-playoff (or first round bounces) teams.

Interesting they include World Championships but don’t seem to weight them nearly as highly as the best on best tournaments.
Awesome to see Iggy on the list. I was worried since he always gets snubbed. His record speaks for itself with 3 golds in best on best tournaments including the clutch goals in 2004 and leading the 2010 games in goals and getting the golden assist.
Also cool to see Seth Martin on the list. Go Smoke Eaters! While he didn’t play in any best on best tournaments leading an amateur team to world gold while picking up 3 world best goaltending awards is very impressive. Remember those tournaments did feature the best the Soviets had to offer. I can’t think of any other goalies who deserve the 3rd spot over him.

First Line Centre

Prices performance in 2014 still blows my mind. The team struggled to score and he singlehandedly carried Canada to a Gold medal
0.60 GAA, 0.972 SV%. Only allowed 3 goals in 5 games

I don't think it was "struggling to score" as much as Team Canada played a defensive game that was more about snuffing out the other team's chances than taking risks of their own. Absolutely dominant hockey, no question, but horrendously boring to watch. That gold medal game against Sweden was one of the most boring games I can recall ever witnessing.

Price was absurdly good in 2014 but does he really deserve to be over Brodeur?

Price definitely is #1 at 10-0 with a 0.99 GAA in an Olympics and World Cup. Brodeur deserves the 2nd spot due to his longevity with a couple great performances.

What does "foundational player: Jon Toews" mean?
I agree on Bergeron - I would think over Nash/Heatley, but obviously they have to refrain themselves from taking all C's

Pretty sure Dany Heatley is team Canada's all-time leader in goals and points in international competition. You'd have a hard time leaving him out, I think.

Nope.
Harry Watson alone scored 37 goals at the 1924 Olympics.
