Im intriguing with all the credits and compliments to the team Lussia. Dont know how other teams rates. Except canada and woosa should be strong as usual

 

[czechcanadian]

David Jiricek and Jiri Kulich for Czechs

Juraj Slafkovsky for Slovaks

Shane Wright for Canada

I'm most intrigued by the Slovak stars. Hoping they can build on Hlinka and cause some upsets. I'm very curious about Kulich who I have yet to see but seems to be slowly rising up the ranks. The Czech D is also going to be interesting to me since they 'look' good but don't really have forward support.

Curious if the 16 YO makes Canada? Bedard.
Michkov is my fav prospect right now... just a beast Askarov has my curiousity piqued as well.

The Czech Republic thanks you

 

[Antiillafire]

The Czech Republic thanks you

He must mean he’s looking forward to watching the whole team

The Czech Republic thanks you

Ah I tricked myself with that line being as long as the others without a player listed.
Let's say Nick Malik

If you're going to say 'Malik' then just leave it blank.haha (note: I'm not his biggest fan and am joking, it's a good pick and he's top 5 in Finnish Liiga)

Looking at the lists it is neat to think that Peterka can do the WJHC and then a best on best OG a few months later (if it happens). Slaf might be able to do a similar jump. Not sure who else.

Looks like he won’t be there according to German roster release. Sad

The German's go through what we do... small group of players to compete and lose the best ones. Hard to be at level when you have 5 to 6 players at that level and even 1 can't go. I think Slovakia might have that problem next year with at least 1 of your future elite's not being able to make it becuase of NHL commitments. Hope i'm wrong of course.

 

[Dominance]

Brandt Clarke and the Savoie brothers.

I think Slafkovsky will stay with TPS and Nemec is probably AHL bound, and Mesar could go to the OHL if the team that selects him chooses so. I’d actually hope they are in the NHL, could be the first time ever that a Slovak misses the WJC because the nhl team doesn’t release them!

[SoundAndFury]

I think Guslistov will open a lot of eyes. He is virtually unknown to the NA people (and even back home not so much) despite having probably the best season out of everyone on the roster at the KHL level.

 

[57special]

I want to see how Askarov, Cossa, and Wallstedt perform.

Walstedt will be interesting to me because I wanted the Oil to take him. We took Xavier B instead.

It'd be kind of 'funny' if Walstedt got Tournament MVP and Xavier B got cut. Note: funny in an Oiler way.

Yeah, I didn't understand that, or the Broberg over Zegras pick in the previous year, but Covid wreaked havoc on scouting. Who knows how it will all play out.....Wallstedt could bust.
