Sweden already beat the Czechs somewhat emphatically
(It was on the small screen during the Winter Classic)

Dvorsky, Stenberg, Stancl, Lindstein, all excellent, Pekarcik pretty good too
Next year Ralph, Jiricek, Jecho, Kos should be back, perhaps the first rounder later this year. Jecho following a Stancl trajectory would be sweet. Jiricek's confidence is growing with each game, these last two games he has looked his best so far. He was pretty noticeable tonight in a positive way

Lindstein had his worst game tonight. However, he had looked very poised & solid the entire tournament.
Outside of that, the Blues had studs on display in Stancl, Divorsky, & Stenberg.
Good things brewing with our drafted talent. Snuggerud, Divorsky, and Stenberg has the makings of a legitimate NHL scoring line.

All I know is that Feldbergs really should be the MVP. The only one who might contend with him is if Rimpinen shuts down the US. One game to go, but here is how I see it.
C Helenius - Games versus US and Sweden showed who the best center there was. Very Impressed

To be honest, he hasn't played a lot of games since that injury. I think I would be more surprised if he played lights out as some rust should be expected.
He did, however, showed some elite flashes, so I'm curious to see how the rest of the season goes.
Maybe if the blues keep their first rounder they’ll pick a Canadian next year and let that team have a scoring leader. I’m joking but it’s a lot of success for the blues group and we get one last game with a bazillion prospects this afternoon. Good times.

Five of our six forward prospects are at or above a point per game in the tournament. The only one who isn’t is Kos, an 18 year old D+1 3rd round pick. Two of our three defense prospects are going to medal. I’d say that it has been a good tournament in terms of the future of our franchise, no matter what happens in the medal round today.

Jiricek looked like a 1D against the US more than any other game thus far, less so the first time they played Sweden 5 days ago. Looking forward to today
It's been a fantastic tournament for our scouting team. Those guys crushed it. We already knew they did a good job, but none of us knew just how good until now. Because we were all high on these players for the most part, but I don't think anyone would have predicted this type of scoring from all these guys.
Also glad to see Stenberg getting some love. I've always seen more than a 3rd liner in him, and I think he'll end up being more impactful than Snuggy.

Stenberg has been awesome at both WJCs. His production in his league play over the years has been underwhelming though, besides his short stint in the Allsvenskan. I definitely think he is capable of being a top 6 forward, but I'd like to see him break out in the SHL before I am comfortable projecting that.

Interviewed Stenberg before the game. You can feel the disappointment still oozing through him but they have to refocus, so this is an interesting character focus for Stenberg, to see how he responds to what is clearly a bitter, bitter Swedish loss
Who specifically should get credit for these savvy draft decisions (and pro scouting I would add with regard to the offer sheeted players)? I’m looking ahead to the Steen takeover and curious how things like the scouting staff communication will be managed.

Jiricek looks good early, a couple of nice plays. Now Stenberg commits interference on Stancl, good call
STANCL scored again from Jiricek and Jecho. 1-0 Czechs

Jan Vopat is the head of the European Amateur Scouting, so I'd give a ton of credit to him. Troy Brouwer is our current pro scout.
Maybe the Oshie trade finally worked out for us!

There seem to be some conflicting opinions on Lindstein but I don’t know how everyone isn’t pumped about Stancl’s showing. He’s been incredible.
I believe Stancl is now leading the tournament in goals and points.

That sequence was phenomenal and so conflicted Lindstein out there Stancl out there ... Jiricek vs, Stenberg in the corner, who do I root for?!?!?
