Kalus and Tlusty maybe

Tlusty is definitely out with an ankle injury.

 

[Bryzga lol*]

Not a bad looking team at all. Pavelec should be pretty strong for them.

 

[Sting]

Should be really interesting to see how Kudelka handles this.

 

[Cardiac Jerks]

Nice to see Vojta on the team.

 

[Langway]

Anyone know why Neuvirth wasn't included?

 

[ReLyT]

So this is your guess at the team? Or the official roster?

 

[Zine]

Looks like the preliminary roster.

Suprised Fiala wasn't included.

Anyone know why Neuvirth wasn't included?

That's just what I was thinking...

 

[nomorekids]

at least at first glance, this looks like a very, very good team

 

[chaosrevolver]

Great Team, will atleast challenge for 3rd probably more. Interested in seeing Pavelec.

 

[Barkatthemoon]

Anybody want to venture a guess on what the line combos will be?

 

[GKJ]

The Czechs used to hold a bias against players who went to the CHL. Not anymore.

 

[Habsfan18]

Anyone know why Neuvirth wasn't included?

was thinking the same.


hmm, looks like a pretty good team.

 

[RayLeeCharles]

Following WHL guys more Ondrej Roman for the Chiefs has been better that Rakos has been with Swift Current. Might be an age thing seeing as Roman's a 89' and Rakos a 87', but I thought hed have a good chance still seeing as hes played well with Voracek in other international tourneys.

 

[PanthersRule96]

Frolik will challenged for all tournament team and be one of the leading scorers while leading the Czechs to the silver medal. You heard it here first

 

[hockeyprincess]

I hope to see Jaka [Vojta] and Michael [Kolarz] on the blueline together... Congrats to both for making it this year!

 

[HFNHL Canadiens]

Anyone know why Neuvirth wasn't included?

Pavelec wasn't on the team last year, maybe they have a bias against the goaltenders in the CHL...

 

[19 for president]

I hope Kindl puts on a dominating performance. He has supossedly been very good in the OHL this year and almost made the Wings out of camp. In fact he probably would have made the Wings had they not already had 7 NHL caliber dmen, with another already in the AHL.

 

[vancityluongo]

at least at first glance, this looks like a very, very good team

My thoughts exact.

Pavelec should shine, and I'm expecting a very good tourny from him.

 

[CH Wizard]

We've a potential gold winner team here...strong offence, solid goaltending and decent defence (Kindl will be the go to guy on d).

 

[Chimpradamus]

The Czechs used to hold a bias against players who went to the CHL. Not anymore.

Could it probably also be that they were harder to scout? A junior national team doesn't always have so much resources for travelling half around the globe checking players out.

When you see the huge amount of QMJHL, AHL and WHL added together, you can understand why they had to pick them on the team.

 

[Plager05]

Does anyone know what the lines will be?

 

[helicecopter]

Tlusty is definitely out with an ankle injury.
