NHL unveils full rosters for 4 Nations Face-Off tournament - ESPN

The 4 Nations Face-Off rosters will be packed with NHL star power and a few surprises.

Full rosters for the league's upcoming event were revealed Wednesday for Team USA, Canada, Sweden and Finland.

Auston Matthews, Charlie McAvoy and last season's Norris Trophy recipient, Quinn Hughes, were among the names previously announced for Team USA. They'll be joined now by a top-tier goaltending trio headed by reigning Vezina Trophy winner Connor Hellebuyck, defensemen Zach Werenski (currently third in points among NHL blueliners) and Brock Faber (a 2024 Calder Trophy finalist) as well as forwards Jake Guentzel, Kyle Connor and Matt Boldy.

The U.S. team prioritized veteran presence with the addition of Chris Kreider and Brock Nelson up front. And there will be a pair of brothers suiting up for their country in Brady and Matthew Tkachuk, and Quinn and Jack Hughes.

One name left off the USA roster was Anthony Stolarz, who has been one of the league's best goaltenders this season for Toronto, with an 8-4-2 record, .924 save percentage and 2.23 goals against average. The U.S. instead went with Jake Oettinger and Jeremy Swayman, who is 7-9-2 with an .892 SV% and 3.09 GAA.

Connor McDavid, Nathan MacKinnon and Sidney Crosby headline Canada's core, and that roster's forward group now also includes Sam Reinhart (currently seventh in NHL points) and Mitch Marner (11th). Reinhart's Florida Panthers' teammate Sam Bennett and 22-year-old Seth Jarvis were unexpected inclusions for the Canadians and will bring some physicality and center depth, respectively.

Canada tapped Travis Sanheim, who is having a career-best NHL season, and Colton Parayko, a solid stay-at-home defenseman, to join their blueline helmed by Cale Makar and Devon Toews. Four
