WJC: 2016 — Denmark Roster Talk

[Danmark]

I would imagine that a possible Danish lineup could look like this:

1. line: Jonas Røndbjerg, Alexander True, Niklas Andersen
2. line: Mathias From, Nikolaj Krag, Markus Jensen
3. line: Thomas Olsen, Søren Nielsen, Kristian Jensen
4. line: Emil Oliver Christensen, Jeppe Holmberg, Jeppe Jul Korsgaard
Extra: William Boysen


Morten Jensen, Matias Lassen
Anders Krogsgaard, Christian Mieritz
Oliver Gatz, Nicolai Weichel
Lasse Bo Knudsen


Thomas Lillie
Lasse Munk Petersen
Mathias Seldrup

I think Jeppe Vinther, Martin Eskildsen and Ludvig Adamsen will make the roster instead of Lasse Bo, William Boysen and Oliver Gatz, but I like the balance of the team! A strong core is needed.

You could very well be right. Normally I would also have had "Luddi" on my final roster, but he has been injured and I'm in doubt about him being fully recovered.

But I believe that there is little difference in level regarding the weakest players on the roster, and that every player on the initial roster has a chance of making the cut if he has a good training camp.

A very interesting podcast with coach Olaf Eller about the Danish team. It is in danish though!

Who are the players to watch against Sweden tomorrow?

Mathias From, Alexander True, Matias Lassen & Anders Krogsgaard are getting important roles on the team, but keep an eye on young, Jonas Røndbjerg(1999), he looks like the real deal!

 

[Eye of Ra]

Jonas Røndbjerg(1999), he looks like the real deal!

He should play in Sweden or CHL next season...

 

[Stud Muffin]

Hope Lasse Peterson can make the team. Went to school with him, his dad is also Coach/GM of our local mjhl team

Thomas Lillie though will be first choice at goalie.

What time is the game (eastern) and will it be streamed anywhere?

 

[Prntscrn]

01:30 PM.

It's on tv4play but if I know TV4 right you will probably have to buy premium to be able to see it and I don't think it will work if you're not swedish.

 

[Systemfel]

What time is the game (eastern) and will it be streamed anywhere?

1:35.

The lines for today's game against Russia is:

Goaltender:
Thomas Lillie (back-up: Lasse Munk Petersen)

1. line: Matias Lassen, Christian Mieritz - Mathias From, Alexander True, Nikolaj Krag Christensen
2. line: Anders Krogsgaard, Lasse Bo Knudsen - Jonas Røndbjerg, Søren Nielsen, Markus Jensen
3. line: Jeppe Vinther, Ludvig Adamsen - Thomas Olsen, Jeppe Holmberg, Jeppe Jul Korsgaard
4. line: Nicolai Weichel, Morten Jensen - William Boysen, Emil Oliver Christensen, Kristian Jensen
Extra forward: Niklas Andersen

Since a D-man needs to be cut today, it looks like it is going to be one of Nicolai Weichel or Morten Jensen. Both are very good defenders confirming the claim that this years team is unusual strong in defenders.

 

[admire]

This could be very brutal

Bit better depth maybe but no stars.

well, krogsgaard did score last year so maybe we have to count on the d for that too.

 

[Bank]

Baring any WJC-like turn of events... Job well done boys!

 

[danish kingsfan]

Fantastic team effort to beat the Swiss, a bit disappointed to see Niklas Andersen only as the 13 forward, he's been decent stats wise in whl, i perhaps expected a bit more of him, but still thought he would be a top 6 forward on this team at least a 3rd liner, but Mathias From wow he was great, if he keeps it up he could be a potential riser in the upcoming draft.

 

[admire]

From was amazing but so was a lot of other players. røndbjerg will be a beast. the best thing is that quite a few will return next year.

Krag was really impressive too, and True played well.

And all those players return next year...
