Team Canada announces their roster for the Olympic games in Sochi

The long awaited deadline for teams to submit their hockey roster for the 2014 Winter Olympics has arrived, and we finally know who will represent Team Canada.

Carey Price is considered by many as the favourite to be the starter for the Olympic squad. Price is currently on a torrid pace, sporting a .928 save percentage, playing behind a very porous defense. However returning goaltender Roberto Luongo has the advantage of experience, and will probably split the duties with Price in the round robin games.

Reigning Norris winner P.K. Subban was included on the team after much contrived drama . The elite d-man leads Montreal in scoring this year, and has the most experience on international sized ice of anyone on the roster, having the benefit of playing 4 years in Belleville.

Canada opens the tournament versus Norway on February 13th, followed by Austria the 14th, and Finland the 16th. You can view the entire schedule here.

Notable Omissions: Claude Giroux (PHI), Joe Thornton (SJ), Logan Couture (SJ), Martin St.Louis (TBAY), James Neal (PIT), Eric Staal (CAR), Josh Harding (MIN), Brent Seabrook (CHI), Dan Boyle (SJ), Brian Campbell (FLA),
