Possible dream teams for USA and Canada in World Cup - Part 2.
World Cup of Hockey hasn't been played since 2004 and last team to win the Cup is Canada. Now as the prestigious tournament is back, there's no questions about it being filled with star players.
Last time Team USA won the World Cup of Hockey was in 1996 and that was the year USA developed to be one of the top nations in hockey. USA defeated Team Canada, 5-2, in Montreal.
The Team USA roster for the 2016 World Cup of Hockey could look similar
to the one it had in Sochi, with a few significant changes though. And as Team Canada, it is filled with star players. This is just a preliminary squad and what the team could look like.
