[Seiza]

Damn that's a weak team, defense looks awful.

 

[icing]

Yeah. Defence feels.....weak

 

[erzon]

Thanks Chimp, i was just gonna post this but i refreshed the page one last time and saw you posted it already.

So it's 10 players from the KHL, 9 from the SHL, and 4 from the NLA.

Who's the players Grönborg are waiting for do you think? Engqvist one of them?

 

[joe89]

Two top KHL defensemen and Dahlin, and defense is the weak part? What exactly do you think the other teams will bring?

It's the forwards that will make or break this team. Severe lack of difference makers.

Engqvist and Andersson, likely.

 

[joe89]

Engqvist and Andersson, likely.

André Petersson? Robert Nilsson? Both injured or just about to come back.

Depends a little what player type they want. Petersson has been very productive with the NT.

Just saw this as well, so yeah Nilsson and Petersson. Could be any of the four.

I would personally take Engqvist and Petersson. They bring different things overall, but are R-shots and can score. We lack right-handers.

I guess Enqvist and Lias are really doubtful though.

 

[Eye of Ra]

Johan Fransson.

Not sure why Wikstrand is there aswell.

 

[Eye of Ra]

I guess Enqvist and Lias are really doubtful though.

Then its time for Zackrisson, we need a 3C. Or maybe Axelsson can play as a center?

 

[Eye of Ra]

Kronwall - Ahnelöv
Gustafsson - Hersley
Dahlin - Bertilsson
Fransson - Wikstrand (stay on the bench, both of you)

Möller - Lindholm - Lindström
Omark - Lander - Bergström
Stålberg - Engqvist/Lias/Zackrisson - F.Pettersson
Everberg - Lundqvist - Klingberg
Axelsson

Hersley is only good for PP, he's terrible defensively. Of course, he has the best slapper in the KHL, but that's it.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

This is a huge mistake from your team Sweden. Dahlin will be eaten alive (so to speak).
He is def. not ready to represent team Sweden at the Pyongyang Olympics.

I might be biased to say this but,...your team does not look good.

He was bad against Finland in Karjala, yes, but we'll see. I think he'll do just fine.

Skill wise maybe.. But unless a 17. years old defender hasnt matured allready, he's going to be in alot of troubles. No matter how good you are, if you're "still a boy" you're screwed against mens.
