What would a U23 Team Europe look like? I'm not sure if this has been discussed, but it seems intriguing to have two team young teams instead of one

Forsberg - Barkov - Kucherov
Ehlers - Draisaitl - Landeskog
Laine - Nylander - Zibanejad
Rask - Aho - E.Lindholm
Hertl

H.Lindholm - Larsson
Ristolainen - Maatta
Provorov - Klefbom

Korpisalo

Maybe something like of like

Forsberg - Barkov - Kucherov
Laine - Nylander - Hertl
Ehlers - Zibanejad - Pastrnak
Nichushkin/E. Lindholm - Dano/Rask - Rieder/Rakell

D is harder

Ristolinen - H. Lindholm
Määttä - Brodin
Nesterov - Klefbom

Vasilevski

---I dunno, very, tough, there are some good players but they would be worse than the Team NA players.

 

[Erikfromfin]

Filip Forsberg - Aleksander Barkov - Nikita Kucherov
Gabriel Landeskog - Leon Draisaitl - Tomas Hertl
Patrik Laine - Sebastian Aho - Jesse Puljujärvi
Zemgus Girgensons - Mika Zibanejad - Elias Lindholm
Nikolaj Ehlers

Hampus Lindholm - Rasmus Ristolainen
Olli Määttä - Adam Larsson
Jonas Brodin - Oscar Klefbom
Nikita Nesterov

Andrei Vasilevskiy
Joonas Korpisalo

I like this one the best except it's hard to give Puljujärvi or Aho a slot when you have more experienced players like Pastrnak, Reider, Teravainen, Faska, Burakovsky, Wennberg, and heck Yakupov.

I think this would be great idea for next time around. I understand that some European teams would lose some potentially really impactful players, but at the same time, if you do it for NA, I think it should be done for Europe as well. Just my personal opinion. I think it'd be very exciting for the product as well. And really, that's what this tournament is about, selling hockey

Finland would lose half of its players. Barkov, Laine, Aho, Määttä, Ristolainen, Lindell, Pokka, Teräväinen.
