The Flyers’ World Cup of Hockey: United States

The second to last team we will be entering into the FlyersWorld Cup of Hockey will be the United States. Though the majority of Flyer players have come from Canada, there has always been a steady American presence throughout the organization, and as of late, the Flyers have nearly made a trend of drafting American players in the high rounds, with Joel Farabee, Cam York, and Bobby Brink being recent examples of this.

Perhaps one day those players could be included in a list such as this, but for now, we look to the past and our more immediate present, rather than the future, as I present you with Team USA:

When picking the goaltender for this team, I was left, realistically, with three options: John Vanbiesbrouck, Brian Boucher, and Robert Esche.
