This is a projected for fun roster from a poster I enjoy!

Obvioiusly they are looking for a younger team to build for the tournament after this. Also doesn't think we will medal this year but this would make us stronger for the next year.

I like the thinking but disagree as I think we could medal this year and love the looks of our roster for THIS jrs. We'll never ice a roster that screams gold at a U20 but I feel we can ice 3 consecutive rosters that should win more than they lose and can cause some trouble and medal.

It could look something like this. But personally, I think that there is no great effort to get Benák and Novotný into the team. So at least I don't see any statements from the coaches in this sense, they are just very vague wording, but that's about it. At least that's my personal feeling.
And about Badinka.. There will still be a lot of fun here, although those affected will probably not have much fun. In my opinion, their relationship is not in order, Badinka is constantly apologizing to the national team, before that Augusta ignored him and Badinka was probably offended.
Well, in any case, according to paper assumptions, the team does not have a medal, although I am not saying that it cannot win it. Realistically, they have a much better chance in a year.

Only one I can make is Kazakhstan... That should be an easy ticket to acquire. They may not even televise it.lol

 

[joey16]

Haha Kazakhstan I'm in (if not too pricey).. would like to see maybe also the SVK game 29th December but the dream would be the New Years Eve CZE-SWE!!!

My dream would probably be the Slovak game. But I'll be in Quebec skiing by then.

Secondary arena and Kazakhstan.. tix should be cheap! I'm curious if tsn even shows it.lol.

Mind you they beat us at U18
.. so watch us beat a power house team and then lose to Kazakhstan... It is the Czech way!

Excellent! I don’t live particularly close to the venue, but anyone here that wants to go to a game together, can meet up at my place ahead of time for some Czech food and drinks if you’re interested.
I think we can create a private message group here?
Also, not entirely sure which games I can make this year. I’ll be in Alberta for Christmas with my wife’s family. I would like to be back for Kazakhstan game but worst case I’ll make it for Slovaks.

 

[Old Man Jags]

There is a decent prospect playing in the Czech league for Kladno. Just scored a goal, helping his team beat top team Sparta Prague. He is called Jaromir-something or other. That kid could go far.

I knew Jaromir Pytlik would break through eventually!

Too bad man! Would have been fun to get together!

 

[Czechboy]

Too bad man! Would have been fun to get together!

So you can't make Kazakhstan on 28th?

 

[Czechboy]

No Kulich today in preseason. Game one on third line. Game 2.. pressbox.

Hopefully gets a chance next game.

On a good note.. Columbus has svozil and jiricek

 

[czechcanadian]

So I just booked tick

So I just booked tickets to Alberta and we’re coming back the 27th.
So I will go to Kazakhstan game with you!

 

[Czechboy]

Ok, I'll look into it and don't forget Joey. Do not buy a ticket till you here from me.lol

I just have to figure out inlaws for the night in Ottawa.

Any chance for;

Martin Svec
Adam Titlbach
Radim Mrtka

Radim Mrtka

In order I'd say Mrtka as a 6/7 but that's assuming they all show up... Eg. Our d should very easily be galvas, port, Dvorak, badinka, jiricek, fibigr and koci. But their will be an ommision or decline. Maybe a riser in CHL or Extraliga.

Titlbach maybe... He is like domink Petr . Plays well for us but not sure he will ever see the NHL.
Don't know enough about svec.

 

[Goodman68]

Martin Svec

Radim Mrtka

Švec- i don't know
Titlbach- no
Mrtka- mayby

Few things on this. Most of our best guys aren't in Europe and not eligible. Given that, this is still a nice looking roster. No Badinka worries me... I just feel like there is a friendly decline coming up.

Cihar is having a really nice start.
Galvas should be a lock (despite NHL not wanting him)
Skok is a long shot
Mrtka may be a first rounder buy may also be a long shot as our D is good.. I hope he makes it
Novotny, Sikora, Metalarsky, Felcman and Hradec could all be in final nomination.

Badinka. If he is not in the nomination even now, then my prediction that he will not go to the championship becomes more likely again. I think Augusta hates him and Badinka hates Augusta. I don't want to say anything, but I did
No, of course it could happen that he ends up playing, but I can't help but feel that it's all leading up to it
And I'm glad that Čihař, Novotný and Mrtka are getting a chance. Sikora is a lock for me, he is playing better and better, yesterday he was one of the best players on the ice (and he was really announced as the best player of the team).

When are the games

 

[Czechboy]

When are the games

I have no idea to be honest.. I assume this or next weekend.

Badinka. If he is not in the nomination even now, then my prediction that he will not go to the championship becomes more likely again. I think Augusta hates him and Badinka hates Augusta. I don't want to say anything, but I did

No badinka gives Mrtka a good chance to make it. We will see. I'm hoping for badinka but I think you are right.. there is some argument going on.

Cihar, Novotny and Sikora are all very exciting forwards. Agree about Sikora being a lock. It is in North American ice this time so maybe they pick more CHL guys this time.

Since I'm me... Domink Petr has 9 points in 10 games so far.lol

I haven't seen Petr play for about two years.. But I think he has a great chance to make the team this year. What makes me sad is Pekař's points, but after the very lackluster performances at the HGC tournament, I expected it a bit. Again, there will probably be a lot of players here who were not long ago supports and I have quite a lot of doubts about how they will adapt to the new environment..
And Záhejský is injured.
