Have a center other than Filppula, Namestnikov, or Glendenning and he should be fine. Although I suspect Larkin is the wrong type of center for him, as well. So, Veleno or Raz with Zadina should yield better offensive numbers. Improving our defense corps will help, too.Almost half of his production here. Make or break it year next season for Zadina. I need at least 20.
What happened to the injured player? He seems to just lay down for no reason. I assume Hronek is somehow responsible if they're fighting him.
Imagine Eichel with Zadina.Have a center other than Filppula, Namestnikov, or Glendenning and he should be fine. Although I suspect Larkin is the wrong type of center for him, as well. So, Veleno or Raz with Zadina should yield better offensive numbers. Improving our defense corps will help, too.
I get the feeling he is only there as a "watch and learn" player but hopefully he gets some games, even if it's probably against the lesser opponents.That's pretty awesome, youngest player on the team and only -01. They got NHL forwards but no d-men so that helped him but knocked Berggren off the roster.
Yeah I think so too, but they wouldn't waste a spot on someone they don't think can play though. So maybe he'll get a game or two, or more if there are injuries.I get the feeling he is only there as a "watch and learn" player but hopefully he gets some games, even if it's probably against the lesser opponents.
icehockeygifs does a better job for red wing fans than the very WEAK detroit red wings media / internet presence who are completely lost .That's pretty awesome, youngest player on the team and only -01. They got NHL forwards but no d-men so that helped him but knocked Berggren off the roster.

I can't believe Berggren was cut! I was really looking forward to watching him play...might be actively rooting against the Swedish team now.
Not sure how it works but they could bring 28 players (sweden brought 27) but the listed is only 22, presumably the roster suiting up to start with.Quick reminder... it gets started tomorrow
Czech Republic playing Russia at 9:15 AM, it's on the NHL Network
Seider is also playing Italy at 9:15
Stecher and Canada get started against Latvia at 1:15 PM, also on NHL Network
Not sure why, but Johansson isn't listed on Sweden's roster on the IIHF website, maybe he didn't make the final one (or maybe he's just going to be a scratch, i dunno)
Bergreen brings excitement , he is funwell, albert johansson made it.
Basically teams have 28 spots on the roster to use and registering a player is final so can't be replaced. Sometimes teams don't register everyone right away so they have room for NHL additions or can address injuries etc. For example Finland filled all 28 spots but Sweden left 6 spots open, maybe they're expecting some NHLers.Not sure why, but Johansson isn't listed on Sweden's roster on the IIHF website, maybe he didn't make the final one (or maybe he's just going to be a scratch, i dunno)
