With the roster scheduled to be announced tomorrow at noon, this is my last chnace to post my picks for Canada's hockey team at the 2010 Winter Olympics. Not a lot of changes from what I've said the last two times. See here and here. Marleau has played his way on to the team (it helps that he is part of the league's most potent line, which can be transplanted wholesale to the national team). In contrast, Lecavalier and Carter have played themselves off the team. Note that Jordan Staal is on the team on the strength of his penalty killing. Also, Keith has replaced Phaneuf and Fleury has replaced Price.
