Actually Canada has always dominated the WORLD scene. Almost every Canada
cup and Canada-Russia series was one by Canada. Russia always dominated
the Olympics, because all their pros. were working for the ARMY. Anyway,
I think you're probably right about the outcome, as that was the
situation in the last Canada Cup.

Yeah, that will definitely hurt them, since they are now a bunch of
republics. Oh, well that's democracy (or a shot at it) for ya'.

What about Chelios, Hull, Turcotte?
I should know this living in Montreal, but isn't Kirk Muller an American?

Yeah, I know the feeling. It's best to get an NHL yearbook and look at
Place-O-Birth and then make up the teams, although some Canadians have
become American (only a hanful), and some have dual-citizenship by birth
(Darren Turcotte).
