Team North America, which will Devin McCourty Jersey be comprised of U.S. and Canadian players age 23 and younger, will be led by head coach Todd McLellan.The club, which is being run by general manager Peter Chiarelli and a sociate general manager Stan Bowman, is going to have its work cut out for them. Perhaps McLellans most recent succe s, leading Canada to the gold medal at the 2015 IIHF World Championship, was fresh in the mind Yasir Durant Jersey of Chiarelli. Or maybe it was just that the two are working together right now trying to make the Oilers a contender again.Either way, McLellan gets the nod. The veteran head coach is a native of Canada, so it will be interesting to see how the rest of the staff fills out. Perhaps there will be a focus on adding some Americans to the mix with this being a dual-nation team.Team North America also named more people to its staff including former great Adam Graves as special a sistant to the GMs, Pat Verbeek and Paul Fenton are co-directors of player personnel, Ryan John Hannah Jersey Jankowski, who is the head scout for Hockey Canada, will be the director of operations. Not much is expected from the young guns team considering theyll have to go toe-to-toe with veteran- and star-laden national teams, but they should still be fun to watch. Theres a lot of great young talent in the league and they could Ty Law Jersey put a scare into some of their opponents early.Youd have to imagine McLellan will have his prized young forward, , at his disposal when Team NA takes the ice. Perhaps that factored in heavily into Chiarellis decision with a shared a set.Now in his eighth year as a head coach in the NHL, McLellan boasts a career record of 311-167-66. He took the to the Stanley Cup Playoffs six Drew Bledsoe Jersey straight years before mi sing out last season.
