I pulled the following news off of rec.sport.hockey. The USA team is
made up of over-20 college players according to the local newspaper
reports. These players are leading candidates for the 1994 team(unless
the NHL releases a full load of pro players for those Olympics).
Jason Zent and Barry Richter of Wisconsin are on the team. Does anyone
know the full roster?
