The Top Line

With so many question marks still facing the Team Canada brass, there is one thing that most people seem to agree on.

NASH-CROSBY-IGINLA

These three dynamic players figure to form the top line for Team Canada in 2010

Doesn't seem like offense will be a problem. This line has every opportunity to be one of the most dominant in the tournament.

They have the playmaker in the middle. Sidney has shown over the course of his short career that he is one of the best in the business at finding the open man. He has put up massive numbers in Pittsburgh but the issue there has always been finding quality wingers to compliment him.

No offence to Bill Guerin but I think Sidney finally has that in Rick Nash and Jarome Iginla.

The line will have terrific speed but also should be a strong on the boards and down low with the presence of Flames Captain Jarome Iginla.

Yzerman has all kinds of options up front and in the end it will be up to Mike Babcock to find the right line combinations and in a very short period of time.

This seems like a good place to start, Mr. Babcock.
