WC: Team Sweden 2025

Yes he is

Not by chance Brynäs is dominating in SHL. He and Johan Larsson is showing the way.
Silfverberg turned down the NT two times this season didnt he?

We have skilled players from the NHL, if we need any 4th liners I say we use Friberg or Hållander.

Maybe Kevin Stenlund can come and show some fourth line magic as well? Or third line RW.

Also, Rasmus Andersson is positive:

If the usual bunch declines: (somewhat "realistic team" where Markström-Ullmark Dahlin-Karlsson - Forsberg-Lindholm-Nyquist gets time off and our breakout - young NHL-players join). Highlight = Stockholm connection, already positive plus accepted or might join via NT play plus the possible breakthru players right now.

Bratt - Zibanejad - Raymond
Eklund - Wennberg
- Carlsson
Johansson - Backlund - Burakovsky
Hållander - Stenlund - Sörensen
Öhgren
- Lindberg – Silfverberg

Pettersson - Larsson
Edvinsson
- Andersson
Broberg - ASP

Liljegren - Söderström

Ersson
/ Gustavsson
Forsberg
Johansson / Wallstedt

You forget Grundström. And apparently Lysell being doing good with Boston. Could be worth a try out to EHT.

Let's hope so. Right handed defensemen we need. When Rakell is having a baby Erik Karlsson might be reluctant to play.

Axel Sandin-Pellikka, is he ready to play WC?

Pelikka was average in EHT. Its hard to say. But sure rather have him than Heed. But he might go to AHL already now.
 
Is Hallam going to leave 2-3 spots for first round exits? Id imagine a guy like Bratt would love to play.

But I really hope we’ll see a full team on starting day. No late additions who plays 2 games.

Remember when Sedins came late and played us to gold? We should keep 2 spots open for Bratt, Nylander level players.

Yes works sometimes. Some years I feel like they are just waiting for players rather than going with what we have. Especially this year we should have a stacked team even after 1st round
 
Sweden should get absolutely killer roster as it is Olympic year and as always, for some reason all the teams with Swedish stars as their leaders either won't make it to the playoffs or lose at 1st rd. Hedman is usually expection of course

More Swedes than finns have won Stanley Cup.

Yes, but those finns keep challenge us when it comes to performance to the ratio of number of inhabitants. We are 10 million and the finns are 5 million. When it comes to the points race there are approximately 26 swedes and 13 finns among the 40 best scorers. Finns matching the ratio. But beating us ratio wise when it comes to five best players etc.

Irritating!

Like having unbearable kid brothers!! Brrr.

So Ratio wise Finland won Sweden 8-3 in 4 Nations, not just 4-3 like in real life? ;)

Cool that Forsberg made it, such a entertaining player! Maybe we are going to have 2014 WJC Teräväinen&Saros vs Forsberg final rematch!

Backlund seems positive about going:


"– Ingenting är klart, men jag hade ett positivt samtal idag med landslagets general manager Josef Boumedienne. Jag ska prata med Sam (Hallam) någon dag framöver. Jag är verkligen taggad att åka om allt går i lås nu, säger han efter en gruppbild med Flames alla målgörare den här kvällen i omklädningsrummet efter slutsignalen."

"– Nothing is clear, but I had a positive conversation today with the national team's general manager Josef Boumedienne. I will talk to Sam (Hallam) in the coming days. I am really excited to go if everything goes according to plan now, he says after a group photo with all the Flames' goal scorers this evening in the locker room after the final whistle."

Hmm... maybe a single game involves more factors than just goals scored... a typical KID brother response! ;)
