The World Cup of Hockey will be back next September in Toronto, prior to the beginning of the 2016-17 NHL season.

We’ve seen snubs and surprises in the 2014 Olympics, so let’s go over some expected changes in the rosters.
Over the next few months, before the rosters are announced, we’ll take a look at the possible additions and subtractions to the World Cup teams, and how certain countries may look different than what we expect.
