TEAM USA: Who is Chris Borque?

Many members of the U.S. men's hockey team started the trip to South Korea on Wednesday.

One is a former Penguin.

Chris Borque is among our "Ones to Watch.”

Bourque is expected to be the big scorer on Team USA, especially given the way he's been performing for his current team, the Hershey Bears.

If Chris' last name sounds familiar, it's because he's Ray Bourque's son, and a distant relative of Penguins two-time Stanley Cup winner Phil Bourque.
