U19 finished on top of Group #3 in the Qualifiers with an impressive 7-0-1 finish:

1 Canada 8 7 0 1 246:224 +22 14
2 Latvia 8 5 0 3 220:217 +3 10
3 Russia 8 3 0 5 228:240 -12 6
4 Greece 8 3 0 5 224:239 -15 6
5 Switzerland 8 2 0 6 216:214 +2 4

Our grouping for the Finals is as follows:
Poland #6 World Ranked
Slovenia #17
Argentina #19
Bulgaria #4
Canada #11
Austria #23

Last year's U19 team wasn't able to make the World Championship playoffs so I'm hoping we can improve on that. U19 is our top ranked National Team so hopefully they can build on their momentum

Looks tough but you can do it!

If beat all the lower ranked teams we should advance

U19 Update:
3-0-2 in the World Championship Finals helped us finish 2nd in our group and qualify for the playoffs

Playoff Update:
U19 beat the United Kingdom. We advance to quarter finals (top 8) vs Lithuania tomorrow

Wooo!

Here's my players that might be good for the team:

Evan Patry - 18, 875 L Off Back
Britton Cartier - 17, 784 U Off Back
Austen Power - 17, 749 Off Pivot

I'm getting a late start on our roster additions (traveling Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe, San Fran).

Here's the first wave of guys I'd like to add:

Backs:
Evan Patry = O-Back
Ben Kaye = O-Back

Pivot:
Connor Hull = D-Pivot

Wing:
Jonathan Lefebvre = O-Wing
Auguste Ball = O-Wing

Done.

Adding a few more U19's:

Back:
Teddy Trepanier = DBack (928)
Dale Recchi = Dback (887)
Duncan Foster = Dback (884)
Teddy Mortimer = Dback (815) 18
Vicente Lee = Dback (801) 18


Wing:
Tremaine Babcock = Dwing (926)
John Paul Cartier = Dwing (922)
Ethan Therrien = Dwing (902)

Goalie:
Claude McIntyre (806) 18
We're in trouble on 18 year old goalies. Anyone?
Kelsey O'Kane (750) 17

Pivot
Taylor Brandon (755) 17

Done. No need to message me, just reply to one of my messages on here with links to more players.

I have two U19 GKs but they are both 16...
Jamey Kowalchuk
Sterling Hodge

Awesome - roster looks set.

We're in big trouble on the goalie front when Ashcroft turns 20

I'd play these guys I listed but I don't exactly want to drop OTR in I.1.
