4 Nations Roster

An international tournament being staged by the NHL and NHLPA, the 4 Nations Face-Off will include teams of NHL players representing the U.S., Canada, Finland and Sweden.

“We’ve got a lot of great players and it was extremely challenging to get to a final roster,” said Bill Guerin, general manager of the 2025 U.S. Men’s National Team and also the president of hockey operations and general manager of the Minnesota Wild. “I’d like to thank our management group for their tireless work and also our coaching staff for their input. The journey to get to today was a reminder to all of us of the important work done by those at the grassroots level of our sport, the significant efforts of our top junior leagues in the USHL and NAHL, and also the impact that our National Team Development Program has had. Hockey in our country is strong and continuing to get better, and this team is no doubt a reflection of that.”
