@ Harper
The rules for eligibility are,
If you have not represented any country in official IIHF-sanctioned competition or the Olympics (World Cup of Hockey, Euro Hockey Tour, and international friendlies DO NOT count) you only have to play two years of professional hockey in a country before you can switch to be eligible for them. This is how Croatia got half of their national team.
If you HAVE represented a country, you have to wait 10 years. |

Does it matter if you play for a Canadian team in the NHL to be eligible for the USA team?

Yes it does.
But if you were an American playing pro hockey in Canada and hadn't represented Team USA at any level, you could play for Canada. |
