Create Team World 23U

[John Eichel da GOAT]

Obviously Team NA was a huge success. Us Americans will argue all day that our National team was handicapped because the 23U team stole all of our potential great players. But the same thing happened to Canada and we all see how that is going.

Anyways assuming the same rules, create Team World 23U if you have access to any non American or Canadian player. Could that team compete against these World Cup teams?

I'll take a shot..

Draisatl-Barkov-Forsberg
Hertl-Wennberg-Ehlers
Laine-Aho-Rask
Teravainen- Girgensons - Lindberg
Puljujarvi

Lindholm-Risto
Klefbom-Larsson
Maata-Brodin
Provorov

Vaselevski

Pretty good looking team on paper but not nearly as deep/proven as team North America.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Forsberg - Barkov - Kucherov
Landeskog - Draisaitl - Pastrnak
Laine - Hertl - Nylander
Ehlers - Zibanejad - Lindholm


Lindholm - Ristolainen
Klefbom - Larsson
Maatta - Brodin

Vasilevskiy
Saros

 

[LeafChief]

Laine - Hertl - Nylander
Ehlers - Zibanejad - Lindholm


Lindholm - Ristolainen
Klefbom - Larsson
Maatta - Brodin

Vasilevskiy
Saros

That's a solid lineup

 

[TheKrebsCycle]

Forsberg - Barkov - Kucherov
Landeskog - Draisaitl - Pastrnak
Laine - Hertl - Nylander
Ehlers - Zibanejad - Lindholm


Lindholm - Ristolainen
Klefbom - Larsson
Maatta - Brodin

Vasilevskiy
Saros

I thought erroneously that Kucherov and Lando were too old, excellent adds, as is Pastrnak. Looks like a team that could cause damage.

 

[CanuckCity]

For clarification, I took it that by team world you mean anyone U23, including NA players? So bsically team NA supplemented by draisaitl (for ex) etc

If that's the case i think only Barkov, Kucherov, and Lindholm (maybe forsberg too) would be the only guarantees to bump players off the current U23 roster

 

[Conspiracy Theorist]

Forsberg - Barkov - Kucherov
Landeskog - Draisaitl - Pastrnak
Laine - Hertl - Nylander
Ehlers - Zibanejad - Lindholm


Lindholm - Ristolainen
Klefbom - Larsson
Maatta - Brodin

Vasilevskiy
Saros

Would beat NA23.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]
