Thanks. Damn, really wanted to see this 00-group in this tournament.
I heard he was bad in the first game from someone who saw the game. He couldn't do much against Finnish defensemen. It's not about his team being bad, he didn't do much. Didn't stood up, which is a shame because of all the hype. Points didn't matter, he just couldn't challenge Finnish defencemen.Very interesting to see this " youtube star" Mathias Emilio Pettersen in this tournament!!. any clue how he is been playing??.
5 teams in mens and womens category and Sweden was ranked 6th in Running order to pick whether to have Womens or Mens team... and the host Norway got team in both.
Running order
1. USA (chose men)
2. Canada (chose men)
3. Czech Republic (chose women)
4. Russia (chose men)
5. Finland (chose men)
6. Sweden (had to choose women)
Seriously? They chose women over men?
Sarcastic? thats what it must be according to the rules at iihf.

"There will be five teams each in the men’s and women’s tournaments. Four teams for each tournament from eight different nations were selected according to a special combined men’s and women’s under-18 world ranking established after the Men's and Women's U18 World Championships in 2015. Norway as the host nation will be awarded one male team and one female team to participate in each of the tournaments."
"Running Order
Participating nations were able to select whether they wish to participate either in the men's or women's ice hockey tournament according to the running order based on the ranking of the U18 men's and U18 women's national teams in the 2014 and 2015 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship program."
Didn't read your own source, I see. The Czechs were in a position to pick whether they wanted a men's or women's team, and chose women, voluntarily, thanks to being the third to choose.Sarcastic? thats what it must be according to the rules at iihf.
I think Wooren's question is rather legit, as to why send a women's team when there were spots in the men's tournament still available.
That's plausible explanation. Which makes one wonder even more, why you didn't present it in your last post put cited information that was relatively useless given the question.No insight into czech youth hockey.. maybe they thought better chance at winning the gold for women? no Usa, no canada, no russia and no finland ..... only sweden to worry there. beats me and theyve done fairly well in womens youth hockey too.
What a life memory, I hope these kids enjoy this experience to the maximum, most of these kids will never play in an Olympics

Of course his English isn't perfect but I'm sure he knew what he was saying, idk why Nizhnikov would call Canada the best team in the world. Strange mentality to have for someone from an elite hockey country, could explain why he moved to Canada at a young age.

Didn't he call Canada one of the best teams in the world, which it is?
