College Hockey Well Represented on USA Olympic Hockey Team Roster

Buffalo Sabres v Detroit Red Wings

Today, the USA Hockey team released their roster for the  Olympic Games in Pyeongchange, South Korea. You will notice that there are four current college hockey players on Team USA. Former NHLer and Boston College Eagle Brian Gionta was named the captain of the US Olympic hockey team. Link to the roster. In my humble opinion, there seems to be a bit of an East Coast bias. 🙂
