World Cup of Hockey: Shayne Gostisbehere, Sean Couturier projected to make Team North America

Two Flyers could be headed to the World Cup of Hockey on the North American team.

On March 1, national hockey federations from around the globe will announce the first 16 players who will join their teams for the 2016 World Cup of Hockey.

In addition to the six nations that will send teams to the tournament -- held the last two weeks of September in Toronto -- we'll also have a Team Europe, comprised of players from nations not included in the tournament, and a Team North American, comprised of under-23 players from Canada and the USA.
