As of today, the 8 seeded teams would be Canada, Curacao, Panama, Haiti, T&T, A&B, Guatemala and St. Kitts.
I think El Salvador will wish to be in this tournament rather than getting crushed in the Hex.

Sure, but the problem is not getting through the group stage. The problem is that we'll have to beat three of the other group winners in a row, then one of the hex teams, then a team from Asia/South America/Oceania with basically no margin for error. That's a pretty big task.
Do I think we'd qualify out of the Hex? No, probably not. But it isn't out of the question - really only Mexico is in good form right now. Costa Rica, Jamaica and Honduras are not as strong as they've been in the past and the US is no sure thing either.
