I guess these are the 20 players for tomorrow. Means 4 full lines instead of 7+13.

So let's guess lines

Meier - Hischier - Andrighetto
Hofmann - Corvi - Simion
Ambühl - Kurashwev - Praplan
Scherwey - Bertschy - Herzog

Diaz - Moser/Geisser
Alatalo - Müller
Untersander - Siegenthaler
Loeffel - Moser/Geisser

Genoni to start, Berra then vs. Belarus.

Josi is down 0-2.

The first forward line looks great.
 
Add Nino, Fiala and Suter and you have a heck of a forward-group. And only two of them are >30

I really hope we'll see best-on-best in Pejing next year. I really would love to see what a fully stacked Swiss team can do.

I sort of doubt it unfortunately. The NHL lost a lot of money this year and i dont think they want a reduced schedule again next year, even if this means neglecting the Chinese market. I hope I am wrong though...
 
Yeah, I doubt it, too. Especially because I think the pandemic will still be a topic next winter, altough I really hope a much smaller one.

Noah Rod seems to battle a small injury, that's why he won't play tomorrow and hasn't been registered yet.
 
So it's

Genoni

Moser - Untersander
Geisser - Diaz
Siegenthaler - Loeffel
Alatalo - Müller

Andrighetto - Hischier - Meier
Hofmann - Corvi - Simion
Herzog - Kurashev - Ambühl
Scherwey - Bertschy - Praplan

I'm a bit surprised by Praplan, especially with Vermin available.
 
It's probably the position of Rod who is injured. But yeah, I'd rather have Vermin there.
 
Moser was a little bit shaky from time to time, other than that there was really not a weak spot on the team. Praplan had a really good game, he works really hard and has the skills to play a pass to Schwerwey.

It looks like they don't collect ice-times this year. Would be interesting to see the D-icetime. I guess Diaz played the most, but I don't think he was overplayed.

We'll probably see Berra tomorrow, but beside that I see no reason for a change.
 
Fourth line was great in general. Baertschi played some of the best hockey I have ever seen from him and justifies taking the spot over Vermin. Other than some bad breakout attempts on the PP I didnt see much to criticize either. Next up will be Denmark who are on a high after beating Sweden. We should beat them.
 
Yeah, very solid game overall. The lines work well and the team has gelled well already.

I would say that some defensemen looked a bit clumsy on a few occasions, most notably Moser and Siegenthaler, and Diaz and Alatalo were a bit slow at time. This could lead to tricky situations against Russia, but playing like this all games are certainly possible to win.
 
I watched Latvia game since Swiss was blocked for my region, who played on PP units ?
 
We'll see I guess. Heldner shoots right, probably means Loeffel, Untersander or Diaz cannot play.
 
So how many spots remain open then? Josi or/and Fiala could still come depending on how the playoffs will unfold.
 
Carolina is completely useless, can't score a goal in 70 minutes of overtime....

Terrible officiating too, they missed like 10 interference calls in OT. I'm so pissed, a shot at a medal ruined by these useless playoffs.
