Yeah, don't think the league they play in matters too much. Only watched parts of their games but I was actually fairly impressed. Our U16 national teams are often not great.
The 01 boys are not looking good however. 2-10 against the US and 1-5 against Russia, heavily outshot in both games. Problem with that team is mainly their offense, very few forwards look dangerous and no line is capable of keeping pressure. The only bright spot on that team has been defenseman Victor Söderström, great player.
