I hate going off-topic, but with Christmas around the corner and my reluctance to dissect Stephen Harper’s northern Arctic miltary defense spend….zzz…..

Oh, sorry. Anyways, I’ve decided to skate off topic on this one. As you know, Team Canada was announced yesterday. And, with Gilles Duceppe’s comments on Quebec getting their own sports team, I think it’s fair game to comment on.

So, if I were picking team, here’s who I’d take:

Goal
Martin Brodeur
Roberto Luongo
Marty Turco

Defense
Rob Blake
Chris Pronger
Scott Niedermayer
Wade Redden
Adam Foote
Robyn Regehr
Paul Martin (Curses! Turns out he’s American. And, from what I hear, all talk. So let’s take Jovo instead).

Forward Lines
Gagne-Sakic-Iginla
Nash-Spezza-Heatley
Richards-LeCavalier-St.Louis
Staal-Thornton-Draper
Doan
