College players provide base of USA Junior Team

Interesting Danny Kristo has the second most points of the college hockey players on the USA WJC roster.
The 2010 edition of the World Junior Ice Hockey Championships will take place in Saskatoon and Regina, Saskatchewan, from Dec. 26, 2009, to Jan. 5, 2010. NCAA Division I hockey will be well represented on Team USA, with 15 college players on the roster as of Wednesday. Final cuts are to be made this coming Sunday by coach Dean Blais (University of Nebraska-Omaha) and his staff, but here's a quick capsule look at those 15 NCAA players and their stats as of Wednesday.
