Sweden's preliminary roster for the World Championship in Switzerland includes ten NHL players and is already at the maximum of 25. Coach Sam Hallam remains in contact with additional North American-based Swedes in hopes of further reinforcements ahead of the opening game.
Tre Kronor will travel with three goaltenders, eight defensemen and 14 forwards. For Friday's opener against Canada, Hallam plans to register two goaltenders, six defensemen and twelve forwards, leaving room for possible late additions such as one goaltender and up to four skaters.
