Had it been determined that Andersen would be a no even with Toronto out, beforehand?

I think its been evaluated by everyone early on that with the situation in Toronto with Andersen being a clear #1, the workload he had this year and Toronto being afraid of him being injured, like he did in the olympic qualification, he will sit out.

In regards to the Morten Green discussion that happen earlier in this thread. This will be his last tournament. Hes been part of Team Denmark for the last 19 years. (2 years in the B division, 17 in the A division)

Thats our optimal roster and it needs Frans Nielsen and Lars Eller too.

Bjørkstrand cant go and Andersen, Hansen and Boedker is a no go almost certainly.

It is truely amazing to see Green after 19 world championships in a row...

Frans Nielsen has a rather touching trubute to him on tv2.dk
 
I hope Hansen had good reasons to turn down the team. With so few players with his experience and capacity it means a lot to lose him.

Our hope is that they will all who can, will come on home ice next year....We are certain to survive this year after all.

We have been a lot stronger on this side of the pond for the last few years...Really help getting players like Regin back to europe, and the development of somebody like Oliver Lauridsen is vital.

that's good to hear. I mourn Hansen as I have seen him so much and there is nothing really bad with him which stands out(even the stone hands are gone), it is just not elite. But that is pretty good, certainly with his gritty attitude on top of everything else.

Not really fair calling out Hansen here.

Hes been one of the NHLers that have played on Team DK the most.

Agreed...the olympic qualifyers before this season did not make things easier.

im not really blaming anybody with the exception of Philip Larsen who i feel just keeps coming up with excuses.

I agree 100% Its a shame, because our Blue line is really where we still struggle. We gotta learn more danes to play Back and fewer to play Center :P

Also, Its kinda strange about Mikkel Aagaard. Either he hasnt been invited or the coach doesnt think he fits the team, hard getting solid information about him and team DK.

hmm but where would you fit him?
I dont see room for him anywhere but the 4th line and there we would already have better fits?
whats the views on From? maybe they are keeping something open for him if gets ready in time.
That dude has big plays in him
We dont need him having a pretty smile...just to play. hehe

Regarding Blue Line: i agree but it seems we have better players coming up...last world juniors showed that we are getting better defensive prospects...may not be superstars but players who will be important for the future.

i thank god for oliver lauridsen every day.

I will certainly try to watch a few games of this team. Ehlers is a future superstar and I would say he will be to Denmark what Draisaitl will be to Germany.

Problem is, especially with a team like this year that is lacking NHlers, that he will think the game waaaaay faster than his teammates, imo this makes him ineffective on the nt. not his fault tho.

He was by far the best player we had on the team last year. His speed is incredible on bigger ice.

He had a pretty severe concussion from the Taylor Hall hit. Don't blame him for sitting out of the WC.
