As the World Cup of Hockey '04 winds down, I noticed the future on display. The U.S. got a fine performance out of Robert Esche in this tournament, but the future of USA Hockey rides on the shoulders of Rick DiPietro. While Canada rides Martin Broduer yet again, as they should, their future lies squarely in the hands of Roberto Luongo. It should be fun watching these two young goalies battling over Olympic, World Cup and Canada Cup titles for years to come. Assuming, of course, the NHLPA ever goes back to work.
