Call them the people's champions.

Following Friday's World Cup roster announcements, NHL All-Star MVP John Scott took to Instagram to address the exclusion of Phil Kessel from Team USA.

Scott's proposal, framed around a grainy photo of an infamous preseason stick-swinging incident back in 2013, is to enter his own team along with Kessel and others who have been overlooked.

I'm sure you all have seen the teams for this years World Cup of hockey. Needless to say there were a few major snubs. With that being said me and my boy Phil are entering our own team into the tourney. We are looking for guys who want to compete and may have been overlooked in hockey. We don't have a team name yet so feel free to shoot me some options and I need to fill out the roster also so give me some ideas. Team USA and Team Canada messed up big time!!!! #noMVPlove A photo posted by John Scott (@jhs_32) on May 28, 2016 at 8:12pm PDT

Add P.K. Subban to the mix, and that's a squad we can get behind.
