I think Zucarello comes if healthy. He is getting old i think he wanna represent Norway as much as possible before he retires. And he has a contract. Norway is not in Olympics, so WC will be special for them especially since its held in viking neighbours countries.

Thoresen is still going strong. He was amazing at last years WC and he had a good season with Djurgården.

Zuccarello - Pettersen - Thoresen
Eskild Bakke Olsen - Martin Johnsen - Brandsegg Nygård
Steen - Vesterheim - Edvardsen
Paulsen - Oby Olsen - P Granath
Martinsen, Haga

Solberg - Nörstebö
England Andersen - Engebråten
Kåsastul - Johannessen
Krogdahl - Hansen

About Zuccarello, depends on how far Minnesota Wild goes in the Play off if they come to the PO. Minnesota is in a good position to reach the NHL PO. Possible, but not likely paritcipation for Zuc.

Emil Lilleberg for Tampa Bay could also be a potential add. But Tampa Bay looks strong this year so they have a good chanche getting through the 1. round. We might likely also hold a spot open For Emil Lilleberg if Tampa gets eliminated in the 2nd round and fly him in later in the wc tournament.

Thoresen will not come, He have quit the NT.

Thomas Olsen in Jukurit could maybe be in the squad.

Kåsastul is injured and out for the rest of the season.

Jacob Berglund could be intersting for us.Jacob Berglund - Stats, Contract, Salary & More
He have obtained a norwegian passport recently and has had a great season in EHL.
 
In addition to this you also have Hurrød, Salsten, Rønnild from Storhamar. Maybe Karlsen from Stavanger. Trettenes is injured.

But its looking kinda rough, with Zucca, Lilleberg and Pettersen most likely doing some playoffs and Thoresen retired. Solberg is also sent to AHL, but they could be out of the playoffs though.

Olsen and Berglund should both get looks. Salsten should be there should he not?

Thanks for the corrections.

How about Tobias Lindström and Hampus Gustavsson? Their stats are great.

Solberg is in AHL, Kåsastul is injured, and Thoresen has retired from national hockey.

But both Berglund and Hjelm has Norwegian passports now, so they should be there. And Haga was amazing in the EHL this season.

Berglund and Gustavsson could have a chanche both of them. Two Malmö boys btw both of them.
(Berglund could have played in the KHL if it hadn't been for the war.)

Tobias Lindström, I don't think so. Think we have better options in our offensive top 6, and he isn't very suited to play as a bottom 6 forward where players with other abilities are preferred.

Hjelm!? Is he really good enough?
 
I think something like this.

Storhamar-players will probably be there in a week or so. Players like Krogdahl, Engebråten, Bakke Olsen is still playing (or played until yesterday).

Haga and Nørstebø not in the squad is the most surprising. Although Haga could be denied still.

It is good to see Philip Granath in the roster. Many years since he played last time.
His contract ended with Tappara, so he is looking for a new club at the moment. Will be interesting to see where he signs.

Håvard Salsten, Storhamar. I read on TV2 that he is close to signing for Djurgården.
