Eye of Ra
Grandmaster General of the International boards
Looks like Rusell, Bödker, N.Jensen and Storm is out.
The current team:

With those 4 out, I actually think the offence is probably going to look something like this:Even with those 4 out, i would not be worried. Danes have some depth. And they have a system that is very good.
Ehlers - True - O.Bjorkstand
Olesen - Regin - Meyer
From - Nielsen - Niklas Andersen
Bau - Jakobsen - Aagaard
Dichow is not taking over Dahm unless he 1) messes up real bad (unlikely); 2) goes "I'm too old for this shit, it's your crease kid and I'm here to support you" (even more unlikely). I think it's really more down to the internal dynamic between the two of them than it is to the coaches. But 2nd case is unlikely since I think he would have just skipped the tournament, what's the point of sacrificing weeks of your holidays if you aren't going to play. So if Dahm still wants to be a #1 goalie he is going to be because that's how seniority works.How do you see the goaltending playout, He just signed a 2 year deal with Frolunda, interested to see if he can be the starter or not.
Both Henderson and Belleville have been eliminated from the AHL which makes both Røndbjerg and Søgaard available. Both should be locks in my opinion if they want to participate.Would Mads Soogard be in consideration for goaltending?
Maybe you are right this year, but it is only a matter of time before Dichow/Søgaard takes over the goalie permanent. If Andersen is available of course he is number one.Dichow is not taking over Dahm unless he 1) messes up real bad (unlikely); 2) goes "I'm too old for this shit, it's your crease kid and I'm here to support you" (even more unlikely).

Alexander True?Both Røndbjerg and Søgaard have opted out and will not participate in WCH due to minor injuries. It looks like there will be no more additions to this year's roster.
Naturally. I wouldn't be surprised if this is Dahm's last WC.Maybe you are right this year, but it is only a matter of time before Dichow/Søgaard takes over the goalie permanent.
No, he's brother Patrick Bjorkstrand in roster, eliteprospects make a mistake.Did Oliver Bjorkstrand join? Eliteprospects have him in.
Rumor has it they feel they have the better Bjorkstrand...No, he's brother Patrick Bjorkstrand in roster, eliteprospects make a mistake.
I doubt that very much. If Søgaard continues to improve, he will be locked up in Ottawa for a while. And Dichow could get a call from Montreal if he has a good year in Frölunda next season.Naturally. I wouldn't be surprised if this is Dahm's last WC.
curious if you guys know if tomas jonsson is still involved with danish hockey?I doubt that very much. If Søgaard continues to improve, he will be locked up in Ottawa for a while. And Dichow could get a call from Montreal if he has a good year in Frölunda next season.
I think he stopped when Ehlers took over as coach for the NT. Not because of any debacle, but I think he got offerede a role in Modo in Sweden in that year. I might be wrong though. He was from Leksand afaik and I think he lived there through the entire period as assistant coach for Denmark, so I assume he took up some coach position in the local area afterwards.curious if you guys know if tomas jonsson is still involved with danish hockey?
i knew him when he played for islanders. really good player, even better as a person
From the game against UK a couple of days ago the 1. pp unit was Ehlers - Blichfeldt - Meyer - Bau and M. LauridsenAny idea of lines and powerplay units?
