I would for sure pencil in Nylander, Wallmark, Holmström and Ehn as the centers of this team.
Don't think it's wise to split up Lindblom and Brodecki, since they are playing together in Brynäs. Question is who will be JDLR and Wallmarks winger? Lööke? Asplund? Bristedt?
Kempe - Nylander - Olofsson
JDLR - Wallmark - X
Lindblom - Holmström - Brodecki
Kempe - Nylander - Olofsson
JDLR - Wallmark - X
Lindblom - Holmström - Brodecki
Exactly, and that is why they should have had Timashov in this team in case of washington dont let Burakovsky play in WJC. There is really no natural player that fits in that line. Maybe Brodecki would have done that, but as you say, it fells more natural if he plays in the third line with Lindblom.
Without Burakovsky or Timashov there the second line looks weak, and the third line looks better. The second line screams after some offensive creative player. If Burakovsky comes then everything is fine, but if not, I think Grönborg have mess it up when he didnt include Timashov.
That leaves me to fell like that Lindblom and Brodecki should be winger to Wallmark and put JDLR in the third line instead. However I do think Brodecki will play in the second line in the end, Asplund, Lööke Bristedt was surprises that they even made the team, so dont think they will play in the second line. The other alterative is Karlsson, I do not think he should, but I wouldnt be surprise if we see him in the second line, since Grönborg hold him high and this is his second tournament.

I doubt there's anything amazing about the Brodecki-Lindblom chemistry when they only get to play 12 minutes/game in Brynäs. Nylander & Lindblom have showed great chemistry in the past.
Seems like it was already a foregone conclusion, or someone else posted it and I missed it, but.

Seems like Nylander never plays with Olofsson on MODO, so he might be bumped down a line or two. I can see Lindblom doing well next to William.
Kempe - Nylander - Lindblom
JDLR - Wallmark - Brodecki
Olofsson - Holmström - Asplund
Yes, and both him and Lindblom have played with Lööke and other players as well. But it is still the most natural thing to do.

Burakovsky never struck me as captain material.
DLR 'C'
Hägg 'A'
Wallmark 'A'
Is very likely. DLR was captain in Lake Placid. Wallmark was captain last tournament where DLR didn't play. Hägg plays his third WJC.

I got tickets for the Sweden vs Czech games. As a Leafs fan I'm mostly there to see Nylander, but who else should i be paying attention for. I'd assume Kempe is key and will Kylington be on the team (and if so will he get significant minutes?).
Kempe will probably be one of the guys relied upon to score, Kylington is on the team and will most likely play 2nd/3rd pairing minutes. I know the leafs didn't draft Lucas Wallmark, but keep an eye on him he is a really really good playmaker.
Oh and I almost forgot Aho! Small but very talented PMD.

Among D I think Aho & Kylington are going to be the most noticeable guys. Among forwards Nylander is going to stand out a lot, hopefully in a great way. Kempe will do his rushes, Wallmark will control the PP. I can almost guarantee there will be big surprises. Guys like Olofsson & Lindblom could easily have a tournament like Friberg had a few years ago if things go right.

Jens Lööke (2015 draft) and Rasmus Asplund (2016 draft). I'm guessing Lööke is one of the cuts though. Asplund is the more interesting player but in this tournament he will probably get a pretty small role.
You forgot Aho! I know there are size issues but I still can't believe no team picked him.
Caps stop Andre Burakovsky from going to WJC
him sitting in the pressbox was too important for washington.

Oh God...
Just because he was scratched 3 games, doesn't mean he will continue to be scratched. In fact we got pretty good reason to believe he'll be in the lineup Saturday because Trotz is mad at Chimera for taking a penalty in OT last night.
Chill out.
There's still much time for them to release him. And we shouldn't make a big deal of such a vague comment. How about we wait for the capitals to speak themselves.
