new place, same face
When USA Hockey announced the men's and women's Olympic rosters on New Year's Day, the nation was introduced to many new faces, especially on the men's side because the NHL decided it would not participate in this year's Games. But to close readers of SI, some should look familiar. Eight of the 46 U.S. players have been featured in FACES IN THE CROWD, either in high school or in college. Highlighting the list is Troy Terry, a junior forward at Denver, who appeared on these pages after scoring the gold-medal-winning shootout goal against Canada in the 2017 world juniors, and goalie Nicole Hensley (right), who backstopped the women's team to gold at the worlds last April. And familiar Faces are not limited to Team USA; two Canadian women—forward Meghan Agosta (Feb. 21, 2011) and goalie Ann-Renée Desbiens (Nov. 21--28, 2016)—have also appeared.
