The five flags of Sweden, USA, Russia, Slovakia and Latvia are flying high in the afternoon breeze, providing visitors with the five nations participating in Group B of the 2019 U18 World Championships of hockey. MODO, feel free to give us some inside info ? Edited April 19, 2019 by LGR4GM Quote

GASabresIUFAN Posted April 18, 2019 Report Posted April 18, 2019 Interesting team the US is fielding. It includes 4 possible top 10 in Hughes, Turcotte, Boldy and Zegras, plus 2 more top 15 guys in Caufield and York. 2 more possible 1st rders in Knight and Vlasic, and a top 50 guy in Beecher. Strong team. No wonder they are the tourney favorites. Quote

Strong team. No wonder they are the tourney favorites. USA Hockey has really taken a serious upturn over the past 15 years. I really think they've done a great job with their ADM. Couple that with increased exposure and more kids in the US playing hockey and you are bound to see some success. Quote

LGR4GM Posted April 18, 2019 Author Report Posted April 18, 2019 (edited) Here is team USA Edited April 18, 2019 by LGR4GM Quote
GASabresIUFAN Posted April 19, 2019 Report Posted April 19, 2019 Caufield and Boldy were the best US players today against Sweden. Quote
LGR4GM Posted April 19, 2019 Author Report Posted April 19, 2019 Boldy, has a legit shot of being our pick at #7. Quote
LGR4GM Posted April 19, 2019 Author Report Posted April 19, 2019 (edited) Turcotte just snagged a goal. Edited April 19, 2019 by LGR4GM Quote

Sabres should hire a coach with significant USNTDP experience or something. Quote
LGR4GM Posted April 19, 2019 Author Report Posted April 19, 2019 (edited) Oh yea, and Boldy also has a goal. Edited April 19, 2019 by LGR4GM added the goal Quote
