Besides these, Nikolas Matinpalo and Santeri Hatakka (who is presently on IR, though) would probably be eligible, considering that they're both still contracted to NHL clubs, playing in NA and do have some NHL games on their belt (just none from the ongoing season). But after these two... hoo boy, we'll really have to dig into the minors.

I wonder if they could name players who are presently playing in Europe but have seen some NHL and are still contracted to an NHL organization. That would allow us to complete this sixsome with Lassi Thomson.

Weak up front, but the best goaltending for a B team and the defense isn’t bad.

That's NOT weak up front. For a B team, that's pretty stacked.

Its unironic how much better I think this goalie trio is over the one we're sending. Barring passport and eligibility issues id definitely put Daccord here tho.

 

[Czechboy]

Czech A team might be competive here.

Pasta Zacha Palat
Necas Hertl Chytil

Note I left out Euro's that would beat out some of these guys - Sedlak, O. Kase, Cervenka, Tomasek,Krejcik, Hajek, Zboril

Sweden definitely have depth on the defence. You left out Edvinsson and Broberg whom might make it over any of the ones above except Lindholm and Larsson. But the sample size is small of course. Emil Andrae is becoming a dark horse too.
I would probably rather have proven warriors like Stenlund and Sundqvist over a soft player like Engvall.

How is it possible for Carter Verhaege to be snubbed 2x

I would have him over Gunther for certain.

I guess that the sole reason for this thread was to mock Finland´s lack of material.

No

Honestly given the Canadian & US population advantage they should be forced to spread their talent out as if they were selecting 4 equal teams against everyone but Russia.

So an average 4 team US top 6D\9F might be
