Any word on Plekanec?

Nothing yet. He take some time to think about it. Wants to be with family for now, he didn't see them for 2 months. They should talk today, news for us probably tomorrow or tonight.

Also for info, Hyka and Šimek are out of AHL playoff.

True, I was counting normal EHT teams only.

Will Zadina play in the top 6/9?

Will Zadina play in the top 6/9?

I have feeling he won't make it to WHC roster, we will see at today press conference, where they release names for WHC . If you mean today game, then it's possible, lineup is not known yet.

 

[Maluk11]

Line-up at Russia
Francouz
Sklenička - Moravčík, Šťastný - Chytil - Nestrašil
Polášek - Pláněk, Kousal - Nečas - Zohorna
Pyrochta - Hrbas, Jaškin - Chlapík - Frk
Pavlík - Musil, Stránský - Musil - Kaut
Zadina

Polášek and Jaškin are back, which is very good news. Krejčík is injured, hopefully nothing serious.

Likely beat out of a spot by Kaut, no?

 

[Jablkon]

This is gonna be tough WHC. Literally every line seems to me somehow weak. Seems to me They would have to heavily adapt their style to win smth, smth like our juniors teams

Chlapik is done imo unless he shines today.I feel bit sorry for Frk, nice and upright hockey player but he needs to be more complex and shoot more imo.

Stransky is making the team imo. Chytil should be there only because obvious quality. Then Stastny and Kaut. Musil deserves it but I am not sure whether its enough for WHC level.

Zadina obviously with smaller chance, 13th forward in two consequtive games....

 

[Jablkon]

Likely beat out of a spot by Kaut, no?

It looks like, but by my amateur eye test, its fair. His defensive game wasnt that good imo..

 

[Kipper933]

I don't think I've ever seen Jaskin shoot/score like that, lol.

 

[Maluk11]

Game with Russia. Moravčík and Nečas with first points in NT, Nečas nice assist on Chytil PP goal. The whole Kousal - Nečas - Zohorna line played good, Francouz and Jaškin also good game. Good PP again. This was last game for us before WHC, we finish with 7 wins and 3 losses. 1st place in EHCH, 2nd place in EHT, 1st place in CHG and 4th place in SHG. Today on 8 PM CET press conference, where roster for WHC will be released.

I'm not sure about Kaut either. There is Stránský, Šťastný, Kaše, Kousal... It will be tough choice for coach. Only sure teenagers are Chytil and Nečas, I think.

You are right again, sorry. I was counted before with our win vs Russia.

Edit: We still end up on 2nd place, Sweden lost with Finland.

 

[Czechboy]

I only saw the highlights... Necas looked to be everywhere and really good. Surprised by lack of use of Zadina... Hope Frk makes it... Something tells me I'll have a few problems with who makes this team

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Looks like Chytil had a good game.

 

[Maluk11]

Tomáš Plekanec, Dominik Hrachovina and Tomáš Hyka added to roster.

 

[czechmate]

no Zadina

 

[Maluk11]

Roster for World Championship

Roman Červenka named as captain of this team. Francouz was named as No.1, Rittich No,2 and Hrachovina No.3. 15 forwards, 8 defensemen and 3 goaltenders for now.

G: Dominik Furch D: Marek Hrbas, Jakub Krejčík, Vojtěch Mozík, Filip Pavlík, Ondřej Vitásek F: Martin Frk, Filip Chlapík, David Kaše, Adam Musil, Matěj Stránský, Filip Zadina and Hynek Zohorna were cut.

15 rookies for WHC, 12 of them for any NT tournament. Average age is 25.07. Oldest player is Tomáš Plekanec (35), youngest player is Martin Kaut (18). Two players over 30 years, 3 players under 20 years. 9 players from Extraliga, 7 from NHL (some AHL), 6 from KHL, 3 from NLA and 1 from Liiga.

 

[Vidy]

Hahaaaa, Hrachovina finally made it. Zadina out?

 

[Jablkon]

Zohorna looked good. Defense - what to say.... weird thing is Vegas letting Hyka go to WHC. I remember Simon having to stay with team despite he didnt jump to playoff.

 

[Mirinho]

With all that problems this is probably the best team we can have now. So good job by Jandac and Fischer. I like they didn't take Frk. He was very big disappointment for me in swedish games.

 

[Maluk11]

Plekanec deserve really big thanks and applause for what he did and still doing for us, real patroit.

 

[FinPanda]

Hrachovina! Nice.
