U18: Team Slovakia 2023 roster talk

[Antiillafire]

My best guess at what the team could and should look like if all goes well (Molnar being included, unsure what’s up with Cedzo).

Cisar - Dvorsky - Molnar
Pekarcik - Pobezal - Ridzon
Klecka - Jencko - Hodas
Kukumberg - Dej - Paricka

Eperjesi - Strbak
Pisoja - Chromiak
Baran - Barcik

Cehlarik is coming. Good.

My dream is to see him play in the NHL again.

Wrong thread.

Ondrej Molnár didn't get an invitation to the pre-camp due to ongoing investigation in the floorball incident.

Just seen that. What a brutal loss, losing arguably second best player

Kuk

His father was a decent player.

I like this one and see this squad as a very realistic. Dej is a 2C for this team, not a 4C. And Sobotka is much more talented and has way more potential than let's say Paricka. So I appreciate these changes.

But this team has a lack of quality wingers and miss of Molnar is a big loss and very unnecessary.

Did Stahoň get the invitation to the pre-camp? He is listed as a backup. Unless he takes part in the preparation, his chances for the final nomination are minimal.

I agree @hellwar9 made up a more realistic/better lineup. I still have a feeling in the back of my mind that Kukumberg will have a bigger role at this tournament than I thought. Very interested to see how NA dman have developed, Eperjesi especially.

Samuel Honzek?

 

[Pazucha]

Samuel Honzek?

Already turned 18 so he cant play in that tournament anymore.

 

[mirec04]

Samuel Honzek?

He is 2004 birthyear so can not participate

 

[pgfan66]

I saw Maxim Sakmar just played for the U19/U20 (whatever you want to call it). Is that because he isn’t good enough for the U18 team and they needed someone to fill up the U20 roster or is he actually good?
