WC: Team Sweden 2019 roster

[EK47]

Larsson and pääjärvi invited but not lindblom and bratt?

Good thing grönborg is leaving after this. I am not sure it is his credit for winning considering the star teams he had.

Wait.. they actually invited pääjärvi?

 

[joe89]

Officially things are all quiet. I'm guessing they are gonna put up on of these lists on their website someday soon, once they've gathered enough answers.

Pär Mårts not selecting victor hedman for 2014 olympics might be the worst mistake ever.
Grönborg not taking zibenejad, rakell, klingberg for world cup 2016.

Lots of people are saying this now. I don't remember it that way, the player most people wanted instead of Tallinder was Jonas Brodin. Hedman had a terrible WC on his resume and was only beginning to break out in the NHL at that time. Tallinder making the team was the big head scratcher.

Not that we know of, no.

 

[theslatcher]

Sandin, & Zaar with goals against Norway in a 2-0 win.

Rasmussen - Lander - Sandin
Boqvist - Fröberg - Strömwall
Zaar - Brithén - Bristedt
Sylvegård - Mastomäki - Elvenes

Holm - Bengtsson
Bertilsson - Svedberg
Djuse - Arnesson

Enroth

I dont remember any bonehead roster selections by hardy nilsson though.

Somehow Hardy liked Per Hållberg.

 

[Eye of Ra]

Oh now i remember. He choosed tellqvist over lundqvist for 2004 world cup.

Tellqvist put up one of the worst goalie performances i ever seen.

Salo was shit aswell.

Tackar ja till VM – förstärker Tre Kronor

My head hurts. Why would you invite Hägg? Why do we have Hägg on the roster?

Seriously though his stats doesn’t actually suck this year anybody have some input on how he’s played?

It was pretty outrageous. Hedman was already blooming out, while Tallinder barely played at all on a clown team, because he was that old and bad. But the coach wanted a veteran sock puppet.

HÄGG?! WTF? I guess Grönborg is building a garbage line. But WHY? Why not choosing better players instead?

I remember we lost the Junior Gold because of his defence.

Fixed your list. Dahlin we don't know if he has been invited even. Pettersson it seems he has been invited, but hasn't given an answer yet.

 

[EK47]

Went to the flyers board seems Hägg is as bad as I remember. Yikes..

 

[theslatcher]

Went onto corsica, who has him statistically as the 9th worst dman in the NHL. Jonathan Ericsson is there as the 5th worst, so better invite him too.

Grönborg has lost his head if he picks hägg over dahlin. Wtf is wrong with him?

We really dont want to threepeat.

(OEL) - Larsson
Brodin - Gustafsson
Dahlin -
Hägg - (Dahlin)

Hägg - (Dahlin)

Well there's Hjalmarsson.

And then after the first round there's:
Ekholm or Klingberg from DAL-NSH
Nemeth or Andersson/Fantenberg from CAL-COL
Pettersson if PIT loses against NYI

 

[Eye of Ra]

Dahlin - Larsson
Gustafsson - Brodin
x - Hägg

about hägg...this type of dmans are always good in tre kronor so we never know. hägg + larsson is 2 of the most physical players in the entire nhl. having 2 of this players on the backend will make us very hard to play against.

Or you know according to most flyers fans who watch him on a regular basis; easier to score against.

Sweden has many quality defenders, so why pick hägg.

Sweden has many quality defenders, so why pick hägg.

1. Big and strong and ok skater.
2. PK
3. Three time WJC participant.
4. He is easy to insure.
