The NHL is officially on a break for the Four Nations Faceoff tournament. The United States, Canada, Finland, and Sweden will compete over the next two weeks in a round robin competition followed by a championship game. The games will start this week in Montreal and then the scene shifts to Boston where the final will be held.

At least one of the Florida Panthers representing their country in the NHL's 4 Nations Face-Off will become a champion (again). Here is how many players the squad will have competing in this international tournament.

Sam Reinhart and Sam Bennett will skate for Canada, Gustav Forsling is playing for Sweden, Matthew Tkachuk is competing for the United States and four Panthers players — captain Aleksander Barkov, Anton Lundell, Eetu Luostarinen and Niko Mikkola — are representing Finland.

On Monday, all four nations held their first official team practices. That gave us an initial look at how the eight Florida Panthers players will be lining up when the games begin on Thursday and Friday. The first practice of the day went to Team Canada, which features Panthers forwards Sam Bennett and Sam Reinhart.
