Czech Republic: Czech National Team (A, U20, U18, U17, U16)

[kudla]

Why would they miss that? Pretty sure all the best Czech players were there.
Can you name those missing players?

Melcher, Hascak, Jellus, Kupka, Margus, Turan, Ilencik, Knažko

Melcher, Hascak, Jellus, Kupka, Margus, Turan, Ilencik, Knažko

I remember you didn't have all the best players there, but I don't remember why? Both Czech Republic and Russia had their A teams I believe, why not Slovakia?

No idea lol, they just didnt get invited or played for U17

Melcher, Hascak, Jellus, Kupka, Margus, Turan, Ilencik, Knažko

Statistically speaking, these prospects aren't too bad. But they still don't come that close to the Czech players. The only really intrigueing ones are the young defenseman

yes, especially Samuel Knazko born 2002, having 1 point per 2 games as a defenseman playing against 2-3 years old enemies is unbelievable, cant imagine myself doing this

Melcher, Hascak, Jellus, Kupka, Margus, Turan, Ilencik, Knažko

Mentioning Marguš amongst other players looks weird.

Loving this year's U18. I could definitely see them getting medal at the U18 WJC.

Our U-17's beat Finland twice in three games: http://cslh.cz/clanek/2999-ceska-sedmnactka-dvakrat-doma-prehrala-stejne-stare-finy.html

Players that stood out stat-wise: Gajarský (3+1), Střondala (2+2) and Pekař (3+0)

For the Czechs here, does anyone know where one can find a list of registered Czech agents? Usually the federations have one but my Czech is poor.

No longer a ''player testing'' tournament, this one has the best possible roster and thus I thought it deserved to be posted, it should be good indication of what players are in the race for the U18 WJC. Not sure why is Skarek missing, Jihlava probably didn't allow him to go.
I am very interested to see who makes the WJC team from NA/U17 (Kondelik should be lock)

Thanks!!! Damn good looking team right there. Is there a website anywhere that follows this tournament?

This is good news considering this birth year didnt seem that strong. Strondala is a very intriguing player.. Small, but his stats are really impressive in the U-18's as a late 2000 born player. Seeing games in U-20 now as well.

Didn't find any. Yes team is looking very, it will be even better with Skarek and Kondelik. I hope some U17 player makes it, it's always fun to follow underage players. (Lauko seems like the most likely to make it)

EDIT: Forgot to mention, only 4 players in that U18 roster haven't played in a pro league yet. (Przybyla, J. Svoboda, Vomacka, Patera)

Thats incredible... good sign for the future of Czech hockey. Lehner is really trying to push those young guys into the Extra league!

Hopefully it's a start of a ''new'' trend rather than just a result of strong generation. Also speaking of pro league, another U18 player Radim Salda will likely make his debut in Extraliga today.

Why only 8 forwards?

Seems like 13 to me.

For some stupid reason I was counting the amount of club names and not actually looking much at the players..

He admits that the transition period from U-18 to U-20 is an unresolved problem.

Is s..t. Medal of Slovakia? Nope, I do not recognize that team. Deployment, quality, everything far worse than HC.
