It's that time of the year again. Seems like TV-Pucken teams are starting to announce their preliminary rosters and some of them are even playing their first games, prior to TV-Pucken. Southern teams are apparently playing a tournament called Marscupen.

It seems like Göteborg, Småland, Skåne and Östergötland got some good players this year.
I watched a few games live and I think I've found a few players to look out for already.
Göteborg:
Lias Andersson (F) - Good speed and good hands. Son of former Frölunda legend Niklas Andersson. He has already signed for HV71 J18, 2014-15. He played 23 games and scored 4 goals for Kungälv in J18 Elit this season, pretty impressive for a U15 player. Scored the most points in Marscupen, 11 points in 6 games.
Philip Ekberg (D) - Plays a solid two-way game, very mature on the ice. Born 1999 and had 3 points in 4 games for Frölunda U16 this season. Played all 6 games for the team in U16 SM. Had 2 points in 5 games in Marscupen.
Småland:
Gustav Jäderberg (D) - Offensive defenseman. Jäderberg was the captain of Växjö U16 this season, although being one year younger than his teammates. Scored 18 points in 25 games. He had the most goals, assists and points by all U15 defenseman in U16 Elit South.
Big defenseman who played TV-Pucken last year for Småland 2 as an alternate captain (!) and will most certainly be a key piece on the powerplay this year. He has a lot of things to work on in the defensive zone, but extremely good offensively. 5 points in 9 games for Växjö J18. Probably a good leader, judging by earlier experience. Will be the captain of Småland 1 this season.
Eddie Ludvigsson (D) - Two-way defenseman. Plays very good defensively but can also join the rush. Very big for his age. 185 cm and 87 kg. 23 games, 7 points, for HV71 U16 this season. Will be a good asset on the penalty kill. Made the team last year (Småland 1). Has the potential to become a very good player.
Viktor Pålsson (F) - Pure goal scorer. 7 points in 8 games for Småland 2 last year. Averaged 2.5 points per game with Tingsryd U16 (U16 Div.1 Småland) this season, 40 points in 16 games! Also had 6 points in 9 games for Tingsryd J18, J18 Elit. Very skilled player.
Skåne:
I only watched one game with Skåne, but I noticed two solid players.
Hugo Klippfors (F) - Very good passer and good hockey sense. Alternate captain. Scored 7 points in 7 games for Rögle U16 this season. 1 goal and 5 assists in Marscupen.
Oliver Olsson (F) - Hard and accurate shot, good speed. Played 16 games for Malmö U16 this season. Scored 7 points in 6 games in Marscupen.
Östergötland:
Edgars Treijs (F) - You've probably already heard about him. Known for his ability to get pucks into the net. Great hands, he gets around opponents very easily. He might be a bit selfish sometimes, but the amount of points he contributes with makes up for it. Can play physical in both ends. Played for Östergötland last year, 9 points in 8 games. He ended up with 42 points in 20 games for Linköping U16 this season, finished second in goals scored and points in U16 Elit South. Might become the best goalscorer in TV-Pucken this year. Scored 8 goals in 5 games in Marscupen, most goals scored in the tournament.
Filip Fornåå Svensson (F) - Scored most points by all U14 players (born 1999) in Marscupen, 5 points in 5 games. 7 points in 7 games for Linköping U15 this season. 32 points in 15 games for Linköping U14. Didn't get too much ice time, but he takes the opportunity when he gets it. Very good with the puck.
Rasmus Häggebrink (G) - Born 1999. Third best SVS% in Marscupen and second best GAA. Rather small, but very agile. Very good for his age and he plays a solid positional game. Played all 60 minutes when Linköping U16 became the champions of U16 Elit South in the last, decisive, game of the season.
Personally, I think Östergötland and Småland will be very good this year. What do you think? Did I miss any good players?
