so your team will beat easily :GBR  also  :FRA  :GER  and maybe  :DEN

for ensuring the second round

 

Well, hopefully yes :p but it will certainly not beso easy at all, especially Germany will have a very strong team including one of the top NHL stars Leon Draisiatl (if there a match I am afraid of, it is definitely the match against :GER) their hockey style doesn´t suit us at all and it´s like this for a long time...

Also Denmark can not be underestimated, they have very good players used to playing together for years tough matches in the top division.

 

Anyway this is the top division, so each team is difficult to beat, each of these teams has strong goaltending and athletic skilled players playing hockey in strong leagues,

you know that we had many surprising results in top division in the last years, nowadays hockey is definitely not the same as it was in the past, the matches are often very tense and close, and is not so uncommon to see even a underdog winning a match against bigger hockey nation.

i can't imagine the score of :GBR  vs :CAN:USA  over 10 :mumble:

 

Well, the USA have one hell of a offensive team, they super fast super skilled forwards will be extremely hard to be stopped by the British, if there a chance for a double digit score at this tournament, I would bet definitely on the USA - GBR match

Russia vs Italy...for double digit scoring, I bet on this game...

we're gonna get at least 12 goals against in that match (especially because we play vs RUS the day after our game vs LAT, which is one of the 2/3 crucial matches for us)...

and now back to France,

 

Philippe Bozon the former frnch legendary player and from this season also the new coach of :FRA who replaced the long long years Canadian Dave Henderson in this position, has announced the full 25 players roster for the preliminary round.

 

Unfortunately this time :FRA will have to play at the worlds without their NHL stars, Pierre-Edouard Bellemare from Vegas and the "bad boy" Antoine Roussel from Vancouver are both injured and had to refuse the invitation.

The new rising super star of the country Alexandre Texier is still playing for Columbus at the NHL Stanley Cup Play-Offs against Boston (Boston currently leading 3-2 in the series)

 

The other notable missing names are certainly the two french KHL stars the defencer Yohann Auvitu from HK Sochi (Injury) and the long years leader of the team and captain, the forward Stephane Da Costa from Yekaterinburg (Refused the invitation this time for exhaustion after long and difficult season).

 

:FRA will have to raly then on players from the local Magnus League and 7 players playing abroad in European leagues in :SUI:FIN:CZE and :GER

 

the young talented forward Jordann Perret playing in the Czech extraliga for Pardubice is one of the strongest names in the roster

 

A lot of experience can be found also among other players like Teddy Da Costa, Damien Fleury or the new captain Sacha Treille all have in common the fact they all despite playing long years abroad returned this season back home to their national league.

 

France played 7 preparation matches during last weeks.

They won 3 matches against Latvia 2-0, against Switzerland in SUI 4-3 OT and in their last match before the departure to Slovakia last Friday over Italy in a impressive way 6-2,

in the remaining 4 matches they lost both home games to Russia 1-4 and 0-2, also 2-3 OT to Latvia and 0-6 in Sierra against the host Switzerland.

    • There will be specialized double sculls...just not for an NOC if it is entering singles specialists.   Either enter 2 singles specialists, or 1 XD specialist pair.   But they can in theory compete in both events, I guess, if they qualify...our top M, I think, does both.   But there are 17M, 17W, and 30 Pairs allotted in the quota, so I don't think the intent is that every singles entry will be in doubles.   (Perhaps this gets to fall in line with Weightlifting, where due to max entry quota, an NOC can't enter in every event, even if they have the best athletes...here, unless you have a pair who qualifies in both.)

    • I read the Olympic qualification documents for weightlifting. A country can have the opportunity to send a maximum of 4 athletes in one gender, but the conditions are very strict.
    • world champion Jessica Schilder opened her season up with 19.78 in France.
