Some updates in the rosters from last 2 days:

 

already added Tyson Jost from Colorado Avalanche, he already played yesterday against GB.

CAN has now 23 players (all 3 Goalies and 20 skaters) so 2 places left, one of them is reserved for the Columbus forward Pierre-Luc Dubois, already flying to Košice

We have now 23 players (2 Goalies + 21 skaters) so 1 goalie and 1 skater places remaining. Unfortunately for us Boston is looking to advance to the Stanley Cup finals without serious troubles...so the dream about Halák, Chára, Cehlárik or the AHL Charlotte striker Jurčo areslowly but surely going to be unreacheable. we have in Košice the goalie Denis Godla and forward Dávid Bondra still not added to the official roster and waiting for the North American leagues outcome...while for Godla it appears to be very likely to be done, Bondra could have troubles, since after Marek Ďaloga injury we will probably fullfil the last spot with another defencer, who may be re-called from the preparations camp team.

 

added to it´s roster the 3rd goalie Simon Nielsen.

DEN has 22 players in the official roster now (all 3 goalie and 19 skaters) so still 3 spots for skaters available.

SWE has now 22 players (all 3 goalie + 19 skaters) so 3 skaters players are still available, one of them will fullfiled by another super star Gabriel Landeskog the this season 75 points forward and captain of the Colorado Avalanche who already accepted the invitation.

 

added the blueliner of the Clorado Avalanche Nikita Zadorov as their 7th officially registered defencer

RUS has now 24 players (3 Goalies + 21 skaters) so only 1 spot for a skater remaining. Unfortunately for them it will not be fullfiled by Artemi Panarin the striker of Columbus who refused the invitation because of exhaustion and already has went for holidays.

 

registred on more player to their official roster. The Colorado goalie Pavel Francouz.

CZE has now 22 players (all 3 goalies + 19 skaters) so 3 places for skaters are still available for the preliminary round, one of them will be fullfiled with Radek Faksa, but due to agreement with Dallas Stars, they will be able to register him only from Thursday, despite the fact he is already in Bratislava with the team.

 

registered yesterday 2 players. Their superstar the Columbus goalie Elvis "the Rockstar" Merzlikins, who already was between the pipes in yesterday match against SUI only a couple of hours after his arrival from overseas and was just fantastic. also Latvia added the forward Maris Bicevskis.

LAT has now 24 players submitted in their official roster (3 goalies + 21 skaters) 1 skater position still available for them.

 

is the 4th country after GBR, FIN and NOR to complete and officially register the whole 25 players roster for the preliminary round. They fullfiled the last 2 skaters remaining spots with the forwards Alexander Cijan and Benjamin Baumargtner.

My sme tu doma: Me olemme isäntiä täällä

My vyhráme: Me voitamme

Hráte dobrý hokej: Pelaatte hyvää jääkiekko

Máte pekných hráčov: Teillä on komeita pelaajia

Poďme spolu na pivo: Mennään yhdessä oluelle

Nevadí, že ste prehrali: Älä välitä vaikka hävisitte

Šťastnú cestu domov: Hyvää kotimatkaa
