from USA Hockey,
USA Hockey announced today the rosters for its 2018 U.S. Olympic Men’s and Women’s Ice Hockey Teams and 2018 U.S. Paralympic Sled Hockey Team during the second intermission of the NHL Winter Classic at Citi Field in New York City.
“We’re excited about all three of our teams and the chance to compete for gold,” said Pat Kelleher, executive director of USA Hockey. “There’s no bigger stage than the Olympics and Paralympics and I know our teams will represent our country extremely well in PyeongChang."

I went to school with Billins so it’s cool to see him go.
And I did NOT know Wisniewski is playing overseas until just now. Funny how things change

Is there some reason the best NCAA players don’t go?

Seems like it might be an odd choice… But they’ll be playing the KHL All-Stars, Swedish Elite League All-Stars, etc etc. It’ll be interesting to see if Team Canada goes the same route, or if they send Major Juniors, and go for speed, a la Team North America at the World Cup.

I’m confused…
Now I don’t follow college hockey as well as I should but why old vets? Is there some reason the best NCAA players don’t go?
