Ya gotta savour the moment a little more!

Don't just go balls deep, then go make a sandwich. Count the votes, soak in the over-reactions. Ya know; foreplay.

Is this a quote from one of the Sweden coaches? Ragnarsson didn't play in the WJC but Westerlund did, so it seems like they prefer Westerlund?

You're right. I got Westerlund mixed up with Walfridsson, who was on the WJSS Roster ahead of Ragnarsson, but then didn't make the pre-WJC roster while Ragnarsson did. Ragnarsson also leapfrogged Simon Johansson and Tom Hedberg between the WJSS and the WJC.

That's kind of tough to say, though. Teams don't generally bring all their top guns to the WJSS. A lot of guys that get invites are on the fringes of the WJC camp roster to begin with. So it's hard to reach much into positioning there, IMO.

Yeah, I get where you're coming from, but Sweden brought everyone who made their WJC roster except Brannstrom, who had already played in the WJC, Broberg, who was playing U18s at the time, and Sandin. So it seems like, in their case, they did come pretty close to bringing the guys at the top of the list.
