Due to the fact that some players are still tied with their club teams and we also have 1 injured player, coaches have decided to add following players to the training camp roster:
Kirill Kolpakov - D
Anton Jasterbov - F
Sergei Novikov - F
These players as all the other ones invited to the training camp will be fighting for their spots at the final roster for the tournament.

Huge disappointment
We were informed today that games will be moved to Narva instead of Tallinn. This is huge disappointment to us coaches as we had agreed to donate our time to help Estonian hockey with goal of having great training camp (including game against Finland) at Tallinn and then play tournament in front of home crowd at Saku Suurhall.
Right now we have no information what will this mean, how things will be arranged and what will happen. We feel very sorry for the Estonian hockey and especially our players. Hopefully things will be resolved at least some way during the next couple of days. Once we have all the information we have to see what will be done next.
In any case, this is not good for the great game of hockey and for Estonian hockey people.

26 Days left...

Only 26 days left before the puck will drop at the Div-II World Championships at Tallinn. Team Estonia will be ready and we should have the best possible team if a few players will be able to recover from their injuries in time and a couple of other ones can make it back to Estonia in time after their own seasons have ended at the foreign countries where they play.
The result of the games will depend on the whole TEAM Estonia. How well can WE play as a team and how well can WE execute the playbook, i.e. follow the system designed by us coaches for OUR team. Naturally that will also require that OUR players are in better shape than before, which WE believe is the case as WE have seen good dedication and work ethics demonstrated by OUR national team candidates.
WE are looking forward for an exciting tournament and great training camp before the games.
