There's something to be said for having options. Canada's 4 Nations Face-Off GM Don Sweeney -- alongside associate GM Jim Nill -- is going to have an abundance of them when it comes to setting his country's roster for the upcoming tournament.
We're just under a month away from the Dec. 2 deadline for management of each country -- that's Canada, the USA, Finland and Sweden -- to submit their roster of 20 skaters and three goaltenders for the event taking place on Feb. 12-20.
The NHL has eschewed its usual All-Star Game in favor of this tournament, but have no fear: Canada alone will practically carry enough talent to mirror that of any league-wide showcase.
