[Kevin Musto]

Galvas was confirmed for the Czech team.

 

[migi]

Boqvist should and will be a lock. Nordgren is Finland’s first training camp team.

Hopefully Barratt gets himself to U.S. team.

 

[Hattrick Kane]

Kurashev is a lock for the Swiss team obviously.

This kid looks like he's 12 years old.

 

[Blue Liner]

This kid looks like he's 12 years old.

Close, he's 16.

EDIT: Turned 17 in October.

And he is mind-numbingly, stupid-good at the hockey.

 

[Taze em]

So we have...

Sweden-Boqvist
Czech- Galvas
Swiss- Kurashev
Canada- Mitchell, Beaudin
USA- Barratt
Finland- Nordgren

Barratt, Mitchell, Beaudin as question marks if they make the team.

Missing anyone? Don't know the status of those Russian prospects maybe they are eligible? Hakarrainen for Finland?

 

[piteus]

Jack Hughes will be playing for Team USA?

I didn't know Colin Hughes was his brother (shows how much I know). I remember our posters really liking Colin Hughes. A couple of you like Boqvist more. Was it because Boqvist had a higher ceiling?

How does Colin become a defensemen and Jack a forward? They are the same size.

Barratt is a lock for team USA....they loved him over the summer eval camp, coaches called him the hardest worker and one of the most impressive physically fit players they had...he went from a 4th line role to what could be a top 6 role now..

you are also missing MacKenzie Entwistle who looks to have a real good chance at 4th line for Canada...

 

[AmericanDream]

Do you mean Quinn Hughes?

yeah it is Quinn...

Andrei Altybarmakyan should be available. He is same draft as Mitchell, Joki, and Barratt. Same with Tim Soderlund.

Will Jake Wise get invited?

 

[piteus]

Colin / Quinn ... all these Irish names sound the same.

The comedian Colin Quinn, for all those who didn't get the joke.

no chance for Wise...US is set down the middle - Hughes, Poehling, Norris, and Barratt...plus Chmleveski plays center as well as Jack Drury who both seem near locks as well - Drury plays with a ton of grit as well.

Is that Chris Drury's son? Chris Drury who I watched play in the Little League World Series?

Nah, you still need rooh if you want lafreniere.

 

[Toews2Bickell]

One tank at a time for @Rooh...focus needs to be on hughes atm

 

[CallMeShaft]

@Rooh needs to get banned this offseason. We should all appreciate his service, but after we get one of Hughes/Kokka his service will no longer be needed and we must ensure he doesn't jinx us anymore.

 

[Rooh]

Quiet, you must not wake me from my deep spiritual connection with the tank gods.
