2022 Hlinka Gretzky Cup

[GermanSpitfire]

For those of us not up on U18 prospects, who would be the top 10 prospects to go see (and which teams are they on)? Thanks!

I’ll name few notable names for every team.

Canada: Brayden Yager, Cameron Allen, Lukas Dragicevic (But in reality the entire Canada squad are notable prospects.)

Czechia: Eduard Sale, Dominik Petr, Jakub Dvorak

Sweden: Otto Stenberg, Theo Lindstein, Kalle Carlsson

Germany: Paul Vinzens, Paul Mayer, Edwin Tropmann

Slovakia: Dalibor Dvorsky, Jakub Chromiak, Ondrej Molnar

Finland: Jesse Kiiskanen, Jesse Nurmi, Emil Jarventie

USA: Charlie Stramel, Will Smith, Oliver Moore

Switzerland: Kimo Grubner, Valdemar William Hull, Kevin Zurchner

 

[Erikfromfin]

Finland team that competes for Hlinka spots

Goalies:
Rimpinen Petteri, TPS Turku
Vali Noa, TPS Turku
Vinni Emil, HIFK Helsinki

Defenders:
Junkkari Jimi, Pelicans Lahti
Kangas Kalle, Jokerit Helsinki
Kiukas Peetu, SaiPa Lappeenranta
Kiviharju Aron, TPS Turku
Muhonen Niilopekka, KalPa Kuopio
Pieniniemi Emil, Kärpät Oulu
Prihti Eero, Ässät Pori
Väisänen Veeti, KooKoo Kouvola

Forwards:
Alasiurua Arttu, Kärpät Oulu
Eliseev Maxim, Jokerit Helsinki
Halttunen Kasper, HIFK Helsinki
Helenius Konsta, Tappara Tampere
Hynninen Topias, Jukurit Mikkeli
Järventie Emil, Ilves Tampere
Kiiskinen Jesse, Pelicans Lahti

Leppä Tom, Jokerit Helsinki
Nurmi Jesse, KooKoo Kouvola
Pohjalainen Aatu, Pelicans Lahti
Saarelainen Joona, Jukurit Mikkeli
Uronen Tuomas, HIFK Helsinki

Pretty expected qualifying team you could have made argument for Talvikunnas and Soini in defence and Kuusla, Rautiainen and Suoniemi in offence

 

[Goodman68]

They are both on hlinka roster. Curious to see how they do! Im hoping 2 more first rounders!

Of course I hope so. As for Petr, he still has some time to correct his condition, but I'm really skeptical about it after Kaut turned out. And when I saw Peter, he reminded me too much of Kaut in this. If it misleads me, I'll be happy.
I think it's a team that can attack medals. If it has a similar performance as last year, then why not. I don't want to completely evaluate the goalkeeper, but in the defense there are players like Badinka, Kočí, Dvořák and others I liked with their performances. In the attack, as I wrote, the first attack was bounced off the rest, but there were also interesting players in those other attacks. There is a very decent depth of teams ..

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

I’ll name few notable names for every team.

Canada: Brayden Yager, Cameron Allen, Lukas Dragicevic (But in reality the entire Canada squad are notable prospects.)

Czechia: Eduard Sale, Dominik Petr, Jakub Dvorak

Sweden: Otto Stenberg, Theo Lindstein, Kalle Carlsson

Germany: Paul Vinzens, Paul Mayer, Edwin Tropmann

Slovakia: Dalibor Dvorsky, Jakub Chromiak, Ondrej Molnar

Finland: Jesse Kiiskanen, Jesse Nurmi, Emil Jarventie

USA: Charlie Stramel, Will Smith, Oliver Moore

Switzerland: Kimo Grubner, Valdemar William Hull, Kevin Zurchner

Stramel is too old for this team. Also, USA doesn’t send NTDP guys, so none of those three will be there.

Players I’d watch for are Gavin McCarthy, Jayson Shaugabay, and Quentin Musty.

I will add to the list the players who were clearly the best in the team last season and should definitely be on the list.
Jan Šprynar, Jakub Štancl, Jiří Felcman

Forgot Stramel was an ‘04 - appreciate the correction.

 

[Wooren]

What reality ?? The reality of the whole season. At the time you wrote that Peter was no worse, they had comparable statistics. Maybe he'd like to find out what statistics they had at the end of the season, that .. Your rating of less than two matches, I have to laugh at that. So in the end he actually stopped Petr. A real amused smile. The whole season showed who the better player was. In the end, the statistics clearly corresponded to this, and no doubt Tichý not only evaluated the entire season. That you probably see it exactly the other way around and that you are literally the only person is your problem. And Šapovaliv is definitely not as disastrous a skater as Petr. And to be clear, Petr is not a good skater in general, but first of all we are talking about his cardio, which needs some upgrade and I'm not sure if he will ever be able to. The Kaut case is a clear warning.

You didn't answer me how was Petr holding anyone back? What is Sale that much better at than him, that Petr was pulling him down? Stats are a non-argument, what good is it that Sale produced at higher rate when he is literally useless when not on score sheet. Petr makes bigger impact all over the ice, and that's despite being the worse skater and having the cardio "problem", which is a non issue, but I will mention it because you sure do so in every single post.

I am sure Tichy had nothing better to do than to evaluate two underage players. His comment more than anything seems like a bitter attempt to downplay Petr, because how dares his father nominate him, as if this was a case of protectionism (it's obviously not, even if you think otherwise for whatever reason.) Just because he is an NHL scout doesn't mean he is right, but you surely know that. His comment will age poorly, as countless of other "professional" takes have.

 

[theslatcher]

Something like this sounds good for Sweden:

Dower Nilsson - Stenberg - Sagranden
Forsfjäll - K.Carlsson - Stockselius
H.Pettersson - Edström - Nordh
W.Johansson - Svensson - Ståhlberg

Lindstein - Sandin Pellikka
Hell - Wikman
Bürger - Bergström/Willander

Erliden
Thelin
Lind

Forwards look good, defense+goalies are question marks outside of Lindstein, & possibly Hell.

For underagers Zetterberg, Olsson, & Nord have the highest possibility of getting spots I'd say.

I paraphrased Tichý. Sale was useless except for points and Peter was better, okay. I think Tichý laughed too, when he was the coach of the WCH at pp1 and Kulich at the second, even though he was the best player in the class at the HGC and finally at the WCH. And I also laugh at the reviews you write here. I don't have more ..

 

[Czechboy]

I know nothing about the Czech U18 goalies but is 6'6 normal for this age group?lol

Great list.. I'd add Adam Jecho as I feel he has a story to tell. We'll see though.

Nope. Not normal at all.

I still love Kaut and hope he makes Avs next year with Sedlak. Probably wishful thinking.

I don't know enough about the U18 groups so I'll read and learn from you and Wooren on this stuff.

A medal would be amazing... hope it happens for sure but am always skeptical. Sounds like Slovakia will have a strong team too!

If I'm being honest though, I just want more and more guys going to the draft and getting taken in first 100. This draft looks to be promising with at least 4 guys in top 100 and maybe 5 ot 6... but, again, we will see. Need some new blood in NHL and especially on D.

No worries, it's mutual.

Can we please have Bonk? That's Radek's kid and we could use him more than Canada.

In fact, not only he but other scouts laughed at it. Your mockery involves a really wide range of ignorant people

Can we please have Bonk? That's Radek's kid and we could use him more than Canada.

Venmo me all your cash. I have no say over anything Hockey Canada does, but at least I'll have more money.

Can we please have Bonk? That's Radek's kid and we could use him more than Canada.

Even he wanted to he couldn’t because of IIHF rules.

Rimpinen, Kiviharju, Muhonen, Väisänen, Helenius, Saarelainen are 2006 born.
Also Vinni and Hynninen are late 2005 born.
That's a lot of 2024 draft eligibles.

One would think Kiviharju will be with the u-20 team in the summer, no?

 

[FinPanda]

One would think Kiviharju will be with the u-20 team in the summer, no?

Not this summer even though I think he is talented enough. 2023 tournament possibly though.

 

[Jukurit]

One would think Kiviharju will be with the u-20 team in the summer, no?

Kiviharju looked kinda slow at the u-18s. Still played a very good tournament, but I don't think he could keep with the play at u-20s (unless his speed has improved since).
