How is there no place for Chromiak on this team? I'm not saying he would make a ton of difference, but I still don't get it. Are Slovak coaches living in some fantasy where we have a lot of offensive talent to choose from? Same shit like last year with Cajkovic.

According to Petrovicky, there are lot of areas, he should be better and therefore, it would be unfair to other guys, that are now more skilled.
Dont worry, he will be drafted anyway.
 
Could we have one year in which one of our most highly skilled young prospects is not cut from the WJCU20 team? Is that too much to ask for? Year after year....

Pretty bad tourney for us and I think next year, we might also have a similar one. But if we don't get relegated next year, we might get one where all of our games are close the year after that (2022). :huh: It's what it is.
 
So glad this is over. 3 best players of the team Dzugan, Fasko Rudas, Stacho and I think this was deserved. Glad we'll see Fasko Rudas and Stacho next year, hoping for improvement.

Yeah unfortunately. Cajkovic was a major disappointment, whenever he doesn’t have the puck he is useless and he gets pushed off the puck so easily. This u18 tournament in a couple months should be good tho, I think 2002 age group is strong enough to compete with top teams as evident by Hlinka Gretzky cup a couple months ago

By far the worst display of hockey in long time. Most of these kids cannot manage 2 things at the same time. Skating is the most obvious trouble for all D. Don't understand all that hype about Cajkovic or Hlavaj. Cajkovic is closer to a bust level than a star level. I don't see a single player from this team to even sniff a chance to play in the NHL one day. I think those 2 guys getting in the scrum with Lafreniere at the end of the game was the closest they could ever get to the NHL experience.

I’m pessimistic, but not that pessimistic. If Hlavaj was on any big nation his numbers would be great. Cajkovic was brutal I give you that. Knazko is as a little bit of disappointment, his skating really needs to improve. I thought Stacha looked quite good, he looked better to me than Fehervary did at same age in WJC.

I remember Cernak at 16 in his first WJC being terrible. However despite being very raw his talent was already there. I see no talent in any of these kids, none. Hlavaj having a good numbers in Q means nothing, I wouldn't waste a 7th round pick on him. Knazko having a lot of points in Finland is the same. Those guys were supposed to be a leaders. Their skill and skating should be a level above the rest of the team. They didn't show it at all. And I really doubt that any of these guys have the work ethic or dedication for hockey as high as Chara to work their way up to the NHL.
 
Next year roster (hopefully)

Chromiak - Myklukha - Cajkovic
Mrazik - Sojka - Lasak
Valigura - Jellus - Jendek
Kolenic - Kaslik - Slafkovsky

Knazko - Mudrak
Golian - Stacha
Fatul - Turan
Nemec - Hlavac

Hlavaj
Latkoczy
