There are now five St. Louis Blues who will be scattered over four World Cup of Hockey rosters. Yesterday the U.S. released its roster and it included Blues winger Keith Tkachuk and center Doug Weight. The United States General Manager is Blues GM Larry Pleau. Christian Backman will play for Sweden, Chris Pronger for Canada and Pavol Demitra for Slovakia. The World Cup of Hockey, which was last played in 1996, will get underway on August 30. The U.S. is the defending champ.
