Dude. What on Earth are you babbling about ASP looked like a star last year? He was meh offensively and a horror show defensively, especially in the final. He was not even the 3rd best Dman on his own team last year, Lindstein and Willander played much harder competition throughout and dominated. There were literally like a dozen Dmen at the tournament who were far superior to ASP last year. He only "won the award" because the ignorant sponsors picked a "big name". He wasn't on the tournament all-star team, which is voted on by writers who were actually there in person. I simply have to assume you either did not watch the games last year or do not understand hockey in the slightest.
Sweden here and we are prepared : )
Sweden looks pretty stellar 🇸🇪
This may not be Canada’s year. But they are always in the mix for sure,

Also, you forgot Slovakia has Juraj Pekarcik, who is a Blues prospect.
weird, all the advanced analytics from the tournament showed how good he was. But guess you have different analytics
and if you want to sctually have an intelligent conversation about a player, this is not the way to go about it
