• Datsyuk
• Radulov
• Kuznetsov
• Tarasenko
• Anisimov
• Nikulin
• Medvedev
• Yemelin
• Kalinin
• Varlamov
• Barulin (Bobrovsky)
Shaky candidates:
• Syomin
• Kulyomin
• Popov
• Perezhogin
• Zherdev
• Zaripov
• Morozov
• Shipachyov
• Tikhonov
• Gonchar
• Tyutin
• Denisov
• Chudinov
• Korneyev
• Nikitin
Out because of Injury:
• Tereshchenko
• Kulikov
• Volchenkov
Sorry, yes i forgot Belov, i didnt knew what Varlamov has, he was not on the ice for the 5 or 6 games.
Mozyakin has great stats, i also want him at this tourney, but i think bill will ignore him again, like Mamashev, D. Makarov & Varnakov....
Syomin didnt play in the last games & his coach said he will also not play in the upcoming games.
Kuznetsov & Tarasenko are must have's, they played all the last stages @ the EHT.
Zaripov & Morozov should be a much better choice than shirokov. is he so good at the moment? didnt saw the last cska games. Zaripov & Morozov show great hockey in the last weeks, their stats are also very good right now.
With players like Danielsson, Persson, Enroth, Ahnelöv, Burström, Viklund and Erixon, Sweden is gonna lose all 3 games. Again. Sweden has lost 12 last games in EHT i think. Insane.
Team Finland:

30 Ari Ahonen, Metallurg Magnitogorsk, RUS

This team is hilarious in a sad way. Decent goaltending and a few good KHL players, but that's about it.
The Finnish roster for the Russian EHT has always been the weak because the coach allows the more true-and-tried players to have a relaxed Christmas with their families, but this is pretty no-name even compared to previous entries.I was hoping to see Komarov on this list, but I guess they decided to go with a less experienced roster this time around.
Is this a joke? I change my mind, Sweden will atleast win over Finland.

I can't see this Finnish squad beating anyone in this tournament.
If this team even manages to score more than three times in the entire tournament, I'll be pleasantly surprised.
