Credit to Rikard Grönborg, somehow he manages to convince most of the best swedish players in NHL to play for the NT.
Looks like he has a very good connection with the players.

The defence loooks fantastic with Lindholm, Gustafsson, Klingberg, OEL, Larsson and Ekholm. And still Hedman and EK are not in Denmark.

The group of forwards is full with still young players with huge potential - Forsberg, Kempe, Rakell, Zibanejad, Petersson, Arvidsson, Janmark, Andersson - the oldest of them are 25 years old. Hornqvist, Nyquist and Backlund will add experience
And still no sign /some declined others are still playing for the SC/ of top players such as Landeskog, Nylander, Steen, Backstrom, W. Karlsson /can I call him a top player or wait for one more season? :)/.

All looks good, bar the goaltenders - Fasth, Nilsson and Hellberg don't instill much confidence. Especially when they have to play top NHL-ers from Canada, USA, Russia and Finland.

I don't agree, Hellberg has been looking solid, Nilsson aswell, the issue against the Czech was a piss poor box play. That said, we need to improve the box play to have a chance for gold. It has been utterly bad against lesser good opponents so far, even against Belarus.

Idk why you brought up Fasth when he's not at worlds, Hellberg & Nilsson have been calm and great in net so far, only letting in 2 pucks Hellberg had no clear view of.
 
If you beat Russia and Switzerland and you are 1st in the group, you will most likely play against Finland.

Denmark has games against Latvia and South Korea, Finland has games against Canada, USA and Germany. So if we lose against USA and Canada, our max points are 12. If Denmark beats South Korea and Latvia, they will finish with 14 points.

So USA-Canada-Denmark-Finland.

Are you sure you want to beat Russia? ;)

Absolutely. Why wouldn't we want to play the 4th best team in the other group?
 
Rakell - Zibanejad - Hörnqvist
Nyquist - Backlund - Pettersson
Forsberg - Kempe - Arvidsson
De la Rose - Larsson - Janmark

that 3rd line should be our 1st line

Well if they use those lines they are not going to use them as a third line but rather as a 1a/1b line and the Backlund line is going to be used as a third scoring line.

However they choose to play the team now they need to stop using 2 d three f on the powerplay. Especially with the new additions.

However you form the lineup now its going to be some weird line combinations. The most important thing however is actually using four forwards on the pp so the umbrella stops looking this bad. Getting an actual playmaker on the right side with Rakell and Zibanejad would be a huge upgrade.
