2024 World U17 Hockey Challenge

[wetcoast]

It is surprising to not see a first round pick in Greer not be invited. He’s a dynamic offensive talent, who albeit is small, can really skate.

Where is Greer playing next year?

[Czechboy]

Really curious about Czech roster... These are always rosters I love and results I hate lol

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

How did they not pick Lawrence? He’s one of the best players.

 

[Corso]

How did they not pick Lawrence? He’s one of the best players.

He was named, on Canada White

 

[macbowes]

How did they not pick Lawrence? He’s one of the best players.

It must be due to him playing the in USHL. He was at the summer camp, and he's good enough to make the team. Maybe his team would prefer to not release him, and he is deferring to his team? I'm not sure.

EDIT: He's on the team, the CHL source I originally looked at was omitting the USHL selections.

 

[WarriorofTime]

for some reason that article didn't list the last 3 players on Canada White

Tynan Lawrence, Callum Croskery, Adam Valentini, all three play in the USHL

Ah, I see that now, thanks for the correction!

That article is from the CHL website, which is only going to focus on CHL players.

Goalies:
1 Lammi Pyry, Ässät Pori
30 Ahmajärvi Oskari, Kiekko-Espoo

Defenders:
2 Laatikainen Max, Kiekko-Espoo
3 Alalauri Samu, Pelicans Lahti
4 Parkkali Jonne, Jokerit Helsinki
5 Saarimäki Maxim, Ässät Pori
6 Piiparinen Juho, Tappara Tampere
7 Väistö Santeri, HIFK Helsinki
8 Suominen Julius, Lukko Rauma
9 Uronen Eelis, HIFK Helsinki

Forwards:
10 Uronen Anttoni, HIFK Helsinki
11 Kallio Wilmer, TPS Turku
12 Karassaari Janne, Kärpät Oulu
13 Suvanto Oliver, Tappara Tampere
14 Kähkönen Viljo, HIFK Helsinki
15 Rinne Rasmus, Ilves Tampere
16 Vatjus Miko, Lukko Rauma
17 Laitinen Jiko, Ilves Tampere
18 Torkki Oliver, Kiekko-Espoo
19 Vanhatalo Vilho, Tappara Tampere
20 Arkko Luka, Pelicans Lahti
21 Wahlroos Olli, TPS Turku


Not much changed in this age group I believe Santeri Väistö only newcomer. For example Oscar Hemming not done enough to get national team invite. Goalies are good Lammi should be starter.
Defence should be lead by Piiparinen, Alalauri and Suominen. Järvenpää and Kasurinen notable cuts. Nice to see Vanhatalo has finally claimed spot on A team offence. HIFK U18 team forwards Nuutinen, Juntunen and Kossila among notable forward cuts.

Weird regarding Hemming? Another Espoo talent Vuori not selected either. Järventie injured? Karjalahti because of age or not good enough? Santala?
Isn't Aapo Kurri a noticeable cut- or should I say non selection as well?

 

[Svedu]

Viggo Björck should dominate at this level.
Di Iorio, Joe Iginla, Jacobson, Pavao.
Moore, Trethewey.
Tomek? Ruml? Katolicky.

Well I would have chosen Hemming myself. Vuori has played in past I don't think his good enough for this team theres already 5 better centers. Max Järventie? you mean? also not that good.

Karjalahti and Santala were just named into Pohjola Camp. And personally don't think Aapo Kurri is that great theres also Vilmeri Väänänen, Lauri Rantanen, Niklas Kaarto missing from defence and Matias Myllyniemi, Aaro Keinänen from forwards for couple examples

 

[Svedu]

Yeah Keinänen is a noticeable cut. Hemmings cut is on another level though as you've mentioned.

 

[Erikfromfin]

Yeah Keinänen is a noticeable cut. Hemmings cut is on another level though as you've mentioned.

Also his linemate Onni Kovalainen has done well I quess they cut both. Oscar missed out on Pohjola camp and entire U16NT season with injury and has been rolling just couple weeks now. Im sure they will test him at some point.
