{allcanada} HALL WELCOMES ANY TEAM CANADA ROLE

Oilers winger Taylor Hall, via The Edmonton Sun, on Tuesday's pending Team Canada roster announcement:

"It would be different if I was playing in Florida or something, but playing here, you're exposed to it all the time, you're always being asked about it and that kind of thing," Hall said Monday. "Whether it's positive or negative (Tuesday), I'm excited to just to get it over with. If I'm on the team, I'm going to be super jacked and if not, I'll get a nice Olympic break, for sure."

On Tuesday morning: "I'm looking forward to the announcement. Whether I make the team or not, I wish the team all the best. I'd love to represent my country, especially at the Olympic level, but my focus is here. I think I've played well and I think I've improved steadily as the season has gone on. I think we'll see how much I've improved (Tuesday)."

On a possible taxi squad inclusion: "I'd accept of any role that they gave. Even being at the Olympics as a practice player would be a special opportunity, just being around that village and around that whole experience. Getting named to team Canada in any capacity would be amazing."
