This Team Canada looks as good as the legendary 1987 Canada Cup team that featured Gretzky, Lemieux, and Messier.

Disagree. I think competition is weaker, though.

You forget: look at all the Hall of Famers on that team. Surreal. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1987_Cana

You're looking at a bunch of future hall of famers. Crosby. Thornton. Toews. Stamkos. Doughty. Weber. Burns.

Look at that roster,!!! And re-watch Copps Coliseum game 2 (not the more famous game 3) which was Gretzky's best game ever.

Go down each roster, line by line, and tell me you'd take 16 over 87?! Sorry, I'd take Gretz over Sid, Mess over Toews.
