Been a little while since the last Olympic roster, so we'll resume the parlor game today with the Finns:

Niklas Backstrom

Miikka Kiprusoff

* The team's strength is clearly between the pipes. Either goalie could carry the team.

* Nokelainen might be a stretch, but we'll throw him in for some additional Boston flavor.
