As expected he's on the roster for Sweden's national team in 2 games against Finland in Finland, 18-19 April.

The battle for a spot at Worlds begins.

The goal:

Laser beam lol. Sweet goal. Nazzyesque.

It's not worthless, it's just not conclusive. There's a difference.

No, it's worthless. It's junk. It's totally meaningless.

The stats as presented are obviously wrong and when you look at how they're calculated it makes sense why they're wrong and useless. It's bad math.

Things that are worthless:
- stats when they do not support your own opinion

Do you think the Czech league is better than the AHL? Or the SHL?

I see Myrenberg's name.

Bang up trade by mgmt on that one.

I see Myrenberg's name.

Bang up trade by mgmt on that one.

I mean…I also see Fantenberg.

 

[Lindgren]

I mean…I also see Fantenberg.

I think that Myrenberg would rank pretty highly in the Canucks prospect list if he were still with the organization.

I think he would as well but I don’t use this roster as any sort of barometer.

 

[BluesyShoes]

Might have a reason to pay attention to the world's this year, don't hate it. Would have liked to see him stick with Abbotsford, though.

We've disagreed on this before (iirc). I think your rationale is/was incorrect, but I'm open to you explaining why you think the math is bad.

Do you think the Czech league is better than the AHL? Or the SHL?

No.

But I have no clue how the Czech league was in 2021.

I would think its safe to say something is off with NHLe when it comes to Czech league.

Like Bleach said. Its not useless, its just no conclusive at all. But I do not expect you to budge an inch on this.

 

[VanJack]

It's been been the best possible season so far for Lekerimakki, and it isn't over yet. Led his team in scoring and one of the top-scoring teenagers in the SHL. Then the tournament MVP at the World Jr. Hockey Championships.

Now followed by some quality minutes in the AHL and the likelihood of suiting up for Sweden at the World Hockey Championships.

I mean as a 'development season', it doesn't get much better than that.

Wearing #8 with Tre Kronor.

 

[theslatcher]

His first apple with the men.

Video not available in my location. Need to see!

The goal:

What a snipe, what a release.

Vancouver Canucks' Jonathan Lekkerimaki on Sweden's World Championship roster | TSN

Sweden announced it's roster for the 2024 IIHF World Championship on Friday. The roster is headlined by plenty of current and former NHL talent, including Vancouver Canucks forward Jonathan Lekkerimaki and Buffalo Sabres defenceman Rasmus Dahlin.

Good for him. Well done.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Gonna be fun to watch.

 

[Raistlin]

relatively inexperienced team overall, but good experience repping his country nonetheless.

 

[Canucks LB]

He made the team! nice
When is the 1st game on tv?

 

[barriers]

Looks like TSN has it wrong. A poster in the Prospects forum who I believe is from Sweden has said that Tre Kronor has not announced a WC roster. TSN probably saw this roster for a tournament in Czechia and assumed it was the WC roster

 

[Slapshot_11]

We should call him up and play him as a pp specialist

 

[VanJack]

I doubt Lekerimakki sees much more than limited duty on the third and fourth lines....but what a season for the kid!

Top teen age scorer in the SHL; MVP at the World Jrs; first AHL goal; and now the World Hockey Championships. I mean, when was the last time a recent Canuck draftee had all that on his resume in just one hockey season?
