Nice work. 2 years out so I certainly can' tcriticize.

I would want Pasta and Necas seperate so we can run a old school top 6.

D is exactly what I want. So it definitely won't happen.lol I'd change up the pairings but those are my 7.

Goalies are deep... Hard to screw up. Dostal is absolutely the starter today.

Just sucks that our D is weak. I love those players but this is so far from Canada, Sweden, USA. Even Germany has Seider. Swiss have Josi. We have the 7th best D core.lol

Defence still has the X factor though, depending on Jiricek development, it may not end up being as weak as we think now

Jiricek feels about 1000 miles from NHL today. I think Minny is doing a reconstruction with him.

I hope I'm wrong and he's in NHL full time by 2026 but I'm skeptical today.

Well that d core won't fix itself by 2026.

Our x factor will be rulik. He's a great coach. I have a lot of faith in him. But we need NHL d and time is badly running out.

Czechs 98 D was:

Svoboda
Smehlik
Slegr
Kucera
Spacek
Hamrlik

Solid - with Hasek

It was a very interesting group. I think the Czechs has around 20 NHL d at this point. Some names left off. Slegr is my all time fav Czech D. I will say. I rewatch Nagano games every so often (I know.. I need new hobbies) and they really didn't allow much on Hasek. Shots against were low.

They were strong as oxe. Hard to get to the net. Slegr and Svoboda could skate it if need be.
