WC: 2023 Sweden Roster Talk

[Eye of Ra]

And known to the swedish masses. Those who are left...

LOL

I dont know but its possible Lander, Wallmark, Lennström, Dahlen etc is coming to Czech hockey games, that they did not wanna play the friendlies. Hell we need all reinforcements we can get.

Yes, maybe not super players but needed now when NHL players go to Hawaii or the Caribbeans on their crutchers. Who's coming of european players is also always a well kept secret to many. But since so many of the euro players participated in tournaments during the season it would be strange if they didn't want to take a chance on WC. Especially when they did so well as a team.

Anyone know if Wallmark plays C in NL?

A somewhat realistic, but optimistic team. Assuming all teams currently down 3-2 loses their series:

Lars Johansson
Linus Söderström
Marcus Högberg

Gustav Forsling - Rasmus Sandin
Jonas Brodin - Jonathan Pudas
Henrik Tömmernes - Anton Lindholm

Adrian Kempe - Mika Zibanejad - Viktor Arvidsson
Jonatan Berggren - Oscar Lindberg - Lucas Raymond
Isac Brännström - Leo Carlsson - Alexander Nylander
Pär Lindholm - Linus Johansson - Anton Bengtsson

Forsling, Brodin, Kempe and Zibanejad are all under contract and not injured as far as I know. Arvidsson has been injured but is currently playing

Hedman will for sure decline, he looks like he is playing injured + he has played a lot of games in recent years.
Filip Gutavsson is RFA, so probably decline. MoJo, Nyquist and Sundqvist are all UFAs, so guaranteed declines.

I’d say the chances of those guys accepting are slim to none Arvidsson is injured and for the rest of them I’m sure their teams will figure out someway of keeping them from playing. They always do. We’re just a liability, an inconvenience.

I rather go with de la rose than L.Johansson, with Tre Kronor Johansson is never physical like he is in FBK. we need some physical players

I’d say the chances of those guys accepting are slim to none Arvidsson is injured and for the rest of them I’m sure their teams will figure out someway of keeping them from playing. They always do. We’re just a liability, an inconvenience.

yeah and i think Zibanejads wife is pregnent

Islanders is out. Engvall would be a good add. But he dont have contract. But we seen players without contract play WC before. Same with Nyqvist and Marcus Johansson, they would be good adds but are without contract.

Hopefully Colorado kicks out Seattle. Wennberg and Adam Larsson would be nice to have. And did i hear NIls Ekman right, he said he wants Landeskog on this team. Ekman lives in a fantasy world.

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Bemström, Zetterlund, Åman, Boqvist must be interesting now.

 

[jfc64]

"Sure, we will play WC, all of us. We love beating Finland! All of MoJo, Klinger, Eriksson-Ek, Sunken, Wally, Gus, Brody and me. [Gustav Nyquist]. f*** insurance, we split it between us if someone has his career ended. A taco dinner and it's settled. It's not that we lack funds or anything". We even pay for Wally's airplane ticket. With a dinner included! Who doesn't love a decent third goalie!

Klinger 380 million
Gunny 430 million earned [talent and mostly hard work and a summer off or two]
MoJo 350 million
Eriksson-Ek 100 million [will win a Stanley Cup in 2026]
Brody 360 million
Gus 20 million [more to come]
Wallstedt 1.7 million
-----------------------
Total earnings 1.6 billion. TV series are named after swedish Minnesota players.

Bemström, Zetterlund, Åman, Boqvist must be interesting now.

 

[Eye of Ra]

Wallmark, Lander and Omark will not play in WC:

Stjärnan riktar kritik mot Tre Kronor – ville spela VM

Tre Kronors målkung från OS, Lucas Wallmark, kommer inte att spela VM för Tre Kronor. Anledningen är en kombination av svalt intresse från förbundet och kommun

www.aftonbladet.se

Wallmark gives critic to Tre Kronor.

I feel sorry for Hallam. He is a good coach but he will have shit players. This is probaly our worst team ever. We might get relegeted. There is no best on best tournament anymore...and yet swedish NHLers dont wanna play.

 

[theslatcher]

Bemström, Zetterlund, Åman, Boqvist must be interesting now.

Zetterlund, like Peterson, has no contract.

Weird comment from Omark. He has long since retired from the NT, while making it sound like it was dependant on an invite... But he'd just decline.

 

[PatrikBerglund]

Why isn't EK65 coming?

 

[Eye of Ra]

Weird comment from Omark. He has long since retired from the NT, while making it sound like it was dependant on an invite... But he'd just decline.

He would have been a great add actually. Skilled, always produce and works hard. He would have been a uppgrade over Karlqvist, Andre Petersson.

Weird that Hallam prefers Linus Johansson and De la Rose over Lander..

 

[Eye of Ra]

Zetterlund, like Peterson, has no contract.

They are not stars. Mediocre players with no contract have played WC before.

How about a 4th line with only Jets players:

Fjällby - Stenlund - Gustafsson

They even played together a bit.

 

[theslatcher]

Only lineup changes today are Ollas Mattsson as 7D instead of Engsund, and Karlkvist+Lang swap places.

 

[Eye of Ra]

Its impossible to win over Finland. The way finns put their body and sticks in defence zone is insanity, you cant get pucks through. probaly a nhl allstar team would have hard time scoring on them.

 

[Eye of Ra]

You guys want Simon Holmström?

 

[Eye of Ra]

hahaahahahah what is borgman doing? its cringe how bad he is

 

[Eye of Ra]

anton lindholm is horrible

 

[Brunkmeister]

Last game all over again. Alsing this time too

 

[EK47]

Last game all over again. Alsing this time too

Atleast Carlsson is good

 

[weklof]

Why isn't EK65 coming?

As far as I know, there has been no reports or interviews with him. So your guess is as good as mine. The fact that there has been now word, means that we can probably count him out though

Weird that Hallam prefers Linus Johansson and De la Rose over Lander..

Yes, weird. Lander would be the #1 center on this team.

 

[theslatcher]

Atleast Carlsson is good

Well, he did say last game all over again.

 

[Eye of Ra]

virus lindbergs wig...

 

[weklof]

Brännström and Carlsson are two players who have really played their way from being placeholders to locks in my mind. If Hallam drops them so he can keep friggin Rasmussen and Everberg, I will lose it
