Although the official czech WJC roster was not made yet, we already know group of players eligible for WJC according to criterion declared by the coach during preseason - that everybody needs to play some game(s) with U20 before WJC, otherwise he cannot be invited.
So Tomas Filippi, Martin Frk, Jiri Sekac, Adam Sedlak, Adam Polasek and Petr Mrazek are likely out of the team, do you think that any of these players would have improved the team?
Jaškin will be injured until January, which means he won´t be at WJC - Frk was added on the preliminary roster instead of him.
Shame about Jaskin. He's a big loss, and I don't reckon Frk can fully replace him, but let's hope so
You feel Jaskin is a better player than Frk?

I´m really looking forward to this tournament... will be interesting to see how they can make things done against international teams without Jaškin this time. I think it will tell a lot about their chances at U18-WJCThe roaster U18 for tournament at Swiss (Zuchwill)

Yeah. And I agree with the coach when he says we need to win tournament like this if we want to be relevant force on April... I´m not trying to underestimate opponents at this tourney, but that´s just reality.As you sad, it will show how it really is with them. They will have to play as a team again, and not to hope that somebody will do the job for them. But by the results from last few games at US, Jaskin wasnt there eather (was with u20), and they played good at there.
And for the different from that time, Jenik, Hertl and Sedlak is coming up! And these three can be deference for CZ. They will be so much help for the Czech team
Červenka and Å koula won´t be at EHT this time because of that Vityaz/Avangard scrimmage. They were replaced with Adamský and Nakládal... I´m not usually criticising nominations, but after this roster made by Hadamczik I think he must be insane Hopefully he´ll prove me wrong.
I totally agree! Honestly, I mean no offence to these players; but Adamsky? I never heard of him until today! And again, compare his stats to Kana (14 points in 31 games vs 20 points in 30 games. Admittedly Kana is now injured, but he wasn't even in the reserves...) What about Pohl?Lukes?Gulas? Petruzalek?
hmmm, we'll see, but even so I think we'll have no national team for a couple of years.....
Nakládal has some potential, that´s for sure. But I still don´t understand many things in Hadamczik´s philosophy (if he has some). Of course it would be completely irrelevant if he had success, which didn´t happen last time. If this upcoming tournament will look similar to that previous one, then we have a problem.
