Looks like the guys you mentioned got a letter. Kronwall with the C. http://www.swehockey.se/Nyheter/Nyh...rstrupptillVM-premiarenmotTjeckienfredag1maj/

Is it confirmed Forsberg will/won't play against the Czechs today?

What do you think yourself? but they got a couple of more houers to announce him to the team?!
 
Well, that page was updated yesterday before they even arrived. They will be registred today but my question is will they play or not?

Could only find this

Filip Forsberg och Mattias Ekholm landar i Prag på fredagsmorgonen och kommer förmodligen att spela i VM-premiären mot Tjeckien.

Assisterande tränaren Rikard Grönborg berättade dock att planen var att Forsberg och Ekholm skulle in direkt.

- Ja, det hoppas vi. Samtidigt måste de känna att de är förberedda, sade Grönborg.

I kväll börjar ishockey-VM och Tre Kronor får förstärkningar i sista stund. NHL-stjärnorna Filip Forsberg och Mattias Ekholm landar i Prag och kommer förmodligen att spela i VM-premiären mot Tjeckien.

Sverige:

MÃ¥lvakter: 1 Jhonas Enroth (31 Anders Nilsson).

Förstafemman: 84 Oscar Klefbom, 23 Oliver Ekman-Larsson - 45 Oscar Möller, 27 Jimmie Ericsson, 10 Joakim Lindström.

Andrafemman: 3 John Klingberg, 4 Staffan Kronwall - 44 Nicklas Danielsson, 58 Anton Lander, 21 Loui Eriksson.

Tredjefemman: 51 Jonas Ahnelöv, 48 Daniel Rahimi - 28 Elias Lindholm, 49 Victor Rask, 9 Filip Forsberg.

Fjärdefemman: 14 Mattias Ekholm - 15 Mattias Sjögren, 20 Joel Lundqvist, 16 Jacob Josefson.

:)!

Well i don't like that we have Rahimi on our squad tbh... he allways take stupid penalties
 
Danielsson in the top-6 seriously? I can would be fine with him playing on the PP but the top-6 REALLY?
 
Not sure if this was answered but I believe he rejected it due to his contract status (RFA).

How has Josefson looked by the way?

Well only some exhibition so far but he'll be in a checking role and kill a lot of penalties. I'm sure he'll do fine in that role.
 
Why did Berglund decline?

Too bad. He's one of the few Swedes who can score.
 
By going by the first period, I would say, my concern about Lindström was not needed. He looks great. If he actually would get some minuts in NHL he would probably have done much better.


Of course he is.

lol
 
Hey guys,
Wondering why Wikstrand wasn't invited. Seems like he played a ton of minutes in playoffs. Not good enough? Too much competition?
 
Forsberg did not play good. Some rest before next game hopefully gets him nice and sharp.

I didn't expect much from him since he arrived just this morning, but he was terrible. He'll hopefully play better next game.

Nobody really made great plays on a consistent level this game but you could see some glimpses here and there. I liked Lindholm & Rask but I'm not so sure Hjalmarsson is an ideal linemate for them.

OEL & Klingberg are going to be the fun part of this team.

Wikstrand is a good young player and should have a bright future. But he hasn't played a single game for the National Team this year and there are others in the SHL that would be ahead of him. Niclas Andersen, Jonas Junland and Niclas Burstrom for sure. Johan Motin and Viktor Ekbom played in pregames before the tournament, so they would be ahead too. As would probably Tim Heed, Mattias Karlsson and Elias Falth. A few others from other leagues in Europe too. Wikstrand is still far down the list, but he could defenitely be in the discussion a year from now.
 
Anyone else seen Tomas Ros' player grades? Hilarious. Basically he gave every player on the team 2+ incl. Forsberg, Sjögren and OEL. And then a handful players 3+ including Hjalmarsson(!). Quite comical.

I saw them and I came to the conclusion that he couldn't possibly have watched the game. Either that or he exceeded the level of ignorance and complete cluelessness that I thought anyone could ever have of a subject of which one makes a living off of... come to think of it, it's Ros so it's probably the latter.
 
Missing:

Sedin - Sedin - Zetterberg first line
Karlsson genious
Steen - Berglund size

Bäckström
Backlund

Hedman

I rather have this team built on declines (no participating and no play.off guys). A bit out of position but they'll manage:

D. Sedin H. Sedin Nyquist
Zetterberg Berglund Hörnqvist
Steen Zibanejad Landeskog
Wennberg Söderberg M. Karlsson


Karlsson Edler
Kronwall A. Larsson
Ericsson Enström
Grossman
