Curious to know what you see in him. It will be interesting to see how he does now that there is no Stutzle or Peterka. The whole German side generated very little against Slovakia, and Slovakia actually didn’t play up to their strengths. Dvorsky didn’t play good and Demek was on the 4th line.

Michal Gut and Ivan Ivan for Czechs. Could both surprise a lot of people. Have been very impressive in the CHL thus far.

I get Elias was good last WJC's but he was riding shotgun with Stutzle and Peterka. I don't expect him to have near the impact he did last year.
I felt bad that he was passed over last year, so here’s to hoping Ivan Ivan gets drafted twice twice in twenty-twenty-two(-two)

Ivan Didkovsky and Semyon Demidov might be worth a look. Not sure if Demidov is playing, but he was a very young draft option eligible last draft. It was somewhat surprising Didkovsky wasn't drafted, but he could probably change that if he's able to get some playing time.
For Switzerland I'd say Joel Henry even though he is still 18. Reminds me of a young Pius Suter. High energy player with decent offensive abilities and great hockey IQ. He is quite undersized though and the Swiss offense is pretty bad again this year so I am not sure if he will be in a position to get noticed.
