The closest thing to a shock is that Timothy Liljegren did not make the roster. He is one of the most talked about draft-eligible players, but he is just barely back in action after suffering with mononucleosis so perhaps shock isn’t warranted. Two other young defenders expected to make the list are also not there, so this looks like a choice for an older, more experienced defence corps. ### Official Preliminary Roster [Source](http://www.hockeysverige.se/2016/12/05/har-ar-den-svenska-truppen-infor-jvm/?utm%5Fsource=dlvr.it&utm%5Fmedium=twitter) ### Goaltenders Felix Sandström, Brynäs Filip Gustavsson, Luleå Adam Werner, Björklöven (Färjestad) ### Defenders Gabriel Carlsson, Linköping Jacob Larsson, Frölunda Oliver Kylington, Stockton Heat (AHL) Lucas Carlsson, Brynäs Jacob Moverare, Mississauga Steelheads (OHL) Kristoffer Gunnarsson, Frölunda David Bernhardt, Djurgården Rasmus Dahlin, Frölunda ### Forwards Lias Andersson, HV71 Rasmus Asplund, Färjestad Jonathan Dahlén, Timrå Jonathan Davidsson, Djurgården Joel Eriksson Ek, Färjestad Carl Grundström, Frölunda Jens Lööke, Timrå Alexander Nylander, Rochester Americans (AHL) Sebastian Ohlsson, Skellefteå Elias Pettersson, Timrå Tim Söderlund, Skellefteå Andreas Wingerli, Skellefteå Fredrik Karlström, AIK John Dahlström, Medicine Hat (WHL) Filip Ahl, Regina (WHL) Other names to watch out for are draft-eligible players on the roster. [Rasmus Dahlin](http://www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=310545&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), who at 16 isn’t eligible until the 2018 draft and may well not make the final cut, is a darling of the hockey world lately for some highlight reel goals. He is playing very limited minutes in carefully managed situations for Frölunda, and likely will vanish off their roster entirely as they approach the grind down the end of the season to the playoffs, but doing that at all at his age is impressive. [Elias Pettersson](http://www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=266336&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), who is second in the Allsvenskan in points at 18, is ranked in the top 10 by some draft watchers, and just out of the top ten by others. [Lias Andersson](http://www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=214318&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), who is playing in the SHL and getting a lot fewer minutes than either Pettersson or Grundström, is still ranked as a possible top twenty draft pick by many. Andersson and Pettersson will almost certainly start out as linemates of Grundström. This is a stacked team with very good goaltending, and they aren’t missing as many of their stars as other teams are. They have a very solid shot at the gold medal. Also released today was the [roster for Team Finland](https://svenska.yle.fi/artikel/2016/12/05/ny-succe-har-ar-spelarna-som-slass-om-att-forsvara-finlands-jvm-guld?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com): ### Goaltenders: Karolus Kaarlehto – TuTo (on loan from TPS) Markus Ruusu – JYP Akatemia Veini Vehviläinen – JYP ### Defenders: Miro Heiskanen – HIFK Olli Juolevi – London OHL Otto Leskinen – KalPa Jesper Mattila – Boston College NCAA Jarkko Parikka – Ilves Juho Rautanen – Jokerit Vili Saarijärvi – Mississauga OHL Robin Salo – Sport Urho Vaakanainen – JYP Juuso Välimäki – Tri City WHL ### Forwards: Kasper Björkqvist – Providence NCAA Henrik Borgström – Denver NCAA Jouka Juhola – Ässät Otto Koivula – Ilves Janne Kuokkanen – London OHL Joona Luoto – Tappara Julius Mattila – Boston College NCAA Julius Nättinen – Windsor OHL Petrus Palmu – Owen Sound OHL Arttu Ruotsalainen – Ässät Aapeli Räsänen – Sioux City USHL Eeli Tolvanen – Sioux City USHL Kristian Vesalainen – HPK (on loan from Frölunda) Aaro Vidgren – Lukko Teemu Väyrynen – TPS There are some draft-eligible names there too, with Eeli Tolvanen, Kristian Vesalainen and Robin Salo all ranked in an area the Leafs may draft from. So is Urho Vaakanainen, and I’m rooting for him just for the sheer joy of his glorious name.
