Team North America....You may ask why a Canadian is supporting a team that consists of rookies,sophmores and etc...2 things 1. I always appreciate and love People south of the border embrace the sport I love so much 2. Team NA has both has player from our Anaheim Ducks and My Hometown on the Roster. John Gibson from our Ducks and Nate MacKinnon from my hometown of Dartmouth NS in the Community of Cole Harbour. I know the World Cup of Hockey is not your usual Tourney....Its not held once a year or every four years like Olympics or World Hockey Championships. It's tourney that not only we see the Best in Hockey Representing their Nations at this year's Tourney. Looking at this roster including Gibson and Mackinnon and few others you think with guys like Drouin,Saad,JT Miller.....they would not stand a chance against International's Hockey Big Six(Canada,USA,Finland,Sweden,Russia,Czech Republic). One can count them out but I always like the Underdog and to me It's not just Team North America but Europe as well. IF Team NA can get some wins over the top six at the World Cup we could see some players from Goal tending to Forward make their mark by lighting their career on Fire.
the Players represent not only best of United States and Canada has to offer in Hockey But Futures of NHL Teams that have invested in them...That includes Ducks John Gibson who is our Number 1 Goalie. So as we countdown to 24th season of Ducks Hockey awaiting their quest for not only Stanley Cup, Lets look forward to World Cup of Hockey where Hockey World's best. What we can look is exciting Hockey and see who will be crown World Cup Champion of Hockey. For us Ducks Fans we get see not only some of the Ducks representing their countries but a New Number 1 Goalie will be a starter at this year's World Cup of Hockey. For me personally supporting this team is unique due in part of my respect for Nate Mackinnon and John Gibson.
