With Christmas Day all over again has now been completed with the highly anticipated announcement of Team Canada that held the hockey world spellbound while the Canadians slowly announced the team. It appears that he Predators will have seven eventual representatives for their national teams.

Here are the official players so far:

Patric Hornqvist - Sweden

Shea Weber - Canada

Martin Erat - Czech Republic

Marcel Goc - Germany

Alexander Sulzer - Germany

Roman Josi - Switzerland

Ryan Suter is a virtual shoe in when Team USA is announced during the Winter Classic.

In one of the biggest snubs of all, Pekka Rinne was not named to Team Finland which is surprising after leading Finland at the World Championships last May and having another great season this year.
