Taylor Hall
This one seems obvious, but as always Team Canada is stacked. However, Taylor Hall is playing like one of the best players in the league. There is no chance that Hall would be left off the Olympic roster. He sits in the top 20 in scoring despite missing a few games with small injuries. He brings up the rest of his teammates, and elevates two rookies to play better than anyone could have imagined at this point.
He’s been so good this year, head coach John Hynes is now double shifting the 26 year old. That kind of endurance would be needed for Team Canada.
Hall would stand out among the stars of Canada. He could find himself on a top line with the likes of Sidney Crosby or Steven Stamkos, or could play lower in the lines with Nathan MacKinnon or Claude Giroux. Obviously, Canada would look like its own version of the All-Star team, but Hall would be an easy addition.
