WJC: 2025 Team Sweden Roster Talk

[Eye of Ra]

Thank you.

Can you provide a bit of a scouting report on Eliasson for us Sens fans, who really don't know much about him other than the online videos that show him crushing people with big hits?

He is a stay at home d with a mean streak

Viktor Nörringer and William Samuelsson are 2 dark horses.

Sounds like the underage players who impressed at WJSS were Eklund, Berglund, Pettersson & Sahlin Wallenius.

Eriksson was also good especially when playing togheter with eklund, i would asssume that the duo will play togheter in next tournament.

 

[Brent Burns Beard]

Did Zether play, how did he look and has he a chance to make the WJC team?

 

[Eye of Ra]

4th line with Måns Toresson, Jack Berglund and Eddie Genborg?

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

I hope Hävelid select Frondell for the upcoming U20 tournament in Switzerland.

We need Valdemar Vesterlund on the team.

Big, physical guy but not skilled enough

Since its on small rinks i can see him grabb a spot on 4th line. We could need a physical line.

Vesterlund, Alriksson, Berglund, Genborg, Toresson, Sterner are some players who fits the bill.

Doesn't Traff already offer that sort of role?

Bring him as extra. I think he’ll make it.

What's your opinion on the forward depth this time (2025) ? Last year seemed to be a great year for that.

yes its pretty deep, no high end talent like last year with Lekkerimäki and Östlund tho. But still a gold medal candidate team, the 05's reached WJC U18 gold game in 2023.

 

[erikhamren]

Next year team should be good too.

L Pettersson - Frondell - Eklund
Berglund - Eriksson - Ihs-Wozniak
Ekberg - Björck - Fernström
Sterner - Genborg - Orrsten
Nordlund

Freij - Annborn
LSW - Eliasson
Gustavsson - Boumedienne
Öhrqvist

Imo this year we should have a chance to win it all, next year a lesser chance due to a weaker 06 age group but still be semi-finalists. 07's and 08's mixed together should be our best chance in like forever.

Not sure about the others but I came away from watching a rookie tournament where alriksson impressed. He has speed and a surprising level of skill despite what his numbers indicate

At 6'6 237, he is fast and heavy on the fore check, finishes hits, and will likely win most board battles. Overall I think he can be a nightmare to defend against and he can already play in small sized rinks
