Predicting 2022 Olympics Team Sweden Hockey Roster
With the Olympics in the near distance there is a growing discussion about who will be brought in and who will be left out of Team Sweden’s roster.
Sweden’s player pool is full of fresh young talent and reliable veterans. It is a strong team, but we think it lacks the depth necessary to successfully compete against the other gold medal competitors. Regardless, us at the Good Hockey Podcast have put on our verkställande direktörhats and picked players who we think gives Team Sweden the best chance to win Olympic gold.
