WJC: 2025 Team Sweden Roster Talk

[Hockeyfrilla]

Does Sweden have a favourite to start in goal or is it a toss up between Gidlof and Thelin?

Thelin is the 1# going in to the tournament.

How about the 25/26 team?

Something like this:


Eklund - Eriksson - Frondell
Björck - Pettersson - Stenberg
Genborg - Zetterberg - Ekberg
Fernström - Berglund - Danielsson

Gustafsson - Eliasson
Freij - Öhrqvist
Annborn - Sahlin Wallenius

Härenstam

i would have Gästrin in middle instead of Zetterberg.

He has the potential. Might explode. We will see.

Eric Nilson
Milton Gästrin
Wozniak
Måns Toresson
Wilson Björck

Are strong candidates.

No broadcast for exhibition games?

No broadcast for exhibition games?

SVT need to step up!

 

[mooseboy28]

I wonder why couldn’t they just take one more defenseman, seems all teams are going to be set at 14/8/3

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Gameday! First exhibition game vs Canada tonight.

Stream: N/A

 

[Eye of Ra]

Svtplay or Viaplay should show it. This games are always entertaining even if its a pre tournament game.

 

[erikhamren]

Onhockey will show it, atleast it listed there. Maybe i will watch the first period on the iphone in bed.

 

[hockeyprospects9]

Weird lines

 

[hockeyprospects9]

Weird lines

Yes, hopefully they’re incorrect

 

[m4tt145]

Eklund and Altörn seems very wierd

Kostadinski??

 

[mooseboy28]

Bringing Kostadinski along over Freij or Sahlin Wallenius is a joke

Seems pretty accurate, unfortunately. Eriksson is getting quite a few reps in Forsfjälls and Berglunds spots as well.

 

[oooooooooohCanada]

Where is Anton Wahlberg?

 

[Gazewithin]

Where is Anton Wahlberg?

Joining for the actual tournament. I assume he is still playing games in the AHL

 

[Gazewithin]

After 2 periods I will give a bunch of these guys the fact that they have heart, but for many there is not much more. The players coming back will have wooooork to do. A lot of players who get overwhelmed very often. Can't expect too much of the non-big 3 D this year. Not a lot of impressive ability when it comes to playing the puck up the ice. Will be important to get Eklund going in the actual tournament, might help to get him a better linemate on the other side, perhaps one from the AHL..... Otherwise it's hard to believe in much danger from any other lines than the first.
Good thing is Stenberg is pretty good at hockey, especially internationally. Thelin looking good overall.

How’s Lindstein looking?
