I'm listening to the Sharks-Blackhawks game on internet radio and Dan Rusanowski, the voice of the Sharks, just interviewed Leafs and Team USA GM Brian Burke. I apologize that I can't get an exact quote but Burke's words were something like, "We can't compete straight up talent for talent with teams like Canada and Russia so what we're looking for on the team are specialists...players who do some things exceptionally well." Although the official Team USA announcement will be made at the Winter Classic between the Bruins and Flyers, I would strongly speculate based on Burke's comments that Paul Gaustad just made the team.
