WJC: Who is going from your NHL team?

[suddeninterest]

So looking at the lists I'm seeing a few trends in regards to the chances of your team's prospect going to the WJC based on who you draft. If you are drafting outside of the top 3-5 in the first regularly, overagers, goalies in the 2nd/3rd round, have extra picks in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd round, drafting prospects outside of the 'Top 4' hockey countries, and drafting players from the US system who don't go to the CHL, all of those picks/players have a better chance of participating, obviously.

This makes no sense.

Canucks only have Juolevi going for Finland. Brisebois was cut from Canada and Boeser is injured. Unless I'm missing someone, but I don't think I am.

Edit: I guess Jasek is going for the Czech Republic.

This makes no sense.

Basically there are factors completely unrelated to how good a prospect is relative to their peers that affect whether or not they go to the WJC. So if team A has 5 players going and team B has 0 it doesn't necessarily mean at all that team A has better prospects/drafting than team B. Hopefully that's more understandable.

So there isn't any 2017 draft eligible player(s) for Canada?

Nolan Patrick would almost surely have made the team, but is injured. Cal Foote was invited to the original summer development camp but either isn't good enough or not eligible to actually play, but was probably the next closest.

Montreal :

You have Juulsen and Sergachev.

Vilardi is better than Foote. He's also injured.

 

[Mattpilf]

Wait, doesn't Pittsburgh have Bjorkstrand from Finland and Gustavsson(goalie) for Sweden?

Or am I off base.

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

Sens

White(A), Brown - USA
Chabot (A) - Canada
Dahlén, Ahl - Sweden
Chlapik - Czech

Real good group a prospects even tho i may be a bit bias

All those guys will play major roles on their respective nations. Very exciting tourney to keep track of as a Sens fan.

 

[Appleyard]

With Kaše seemingly fit and flying over tomorrow that makes 9 for the Flyers.

Though Bernhardt and Laczynski might be cut before tournament... though both have good chances to make it.

Thank you a lot. Appreciated.

Thanks for putting this together

 

[ottawa]

Lack of habs players make me feel sad.

I wonder if this lost is reflective of the quality of prospect pools of the teams.

 

[Braeden]

Could be back to back years where Philly sends the most guys.

Must suck to be a Vancouver/Colorado fan being low in the standings AND in prospect depth here.

Atleast we aren't Florida.

 

[DJB]

Great thread nice work!

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

This is very useful. I bookmarked this.

Thanks.

 

[Fenway]

Thank you a lot. Appreciated.
