Thanks to the women, you'll still win 4-5 gold medals+ probably 2 in short track, and you'll be easy in the top 10 in the medal standings. Italy has no chance of winning 7-8 gold medals, and the only time they've done that was in 1994. The Netherlands simply don't have a phenomenon like Stolz in men right now, but even the greatest power can come to a time when some outstanding individual from another country begins to dominate.

Even after qualifying, it was clear that Pellegrino was in poor form, and worse still, he didn't gain anything in the knockout stages. He's 35 years old, and it's hard to imagine him continuing the Italian races for 15 years. The rest of the Italian team has made no progress and has no chance of winning medals in Cortina. Switzerland has two young guys in the final, but where are Italy? Not to mention the fact that Chanavat is currently stronger than Pellegrino. In the women's, Cassol placed 10th, but the podium is light years away. If we were the Czech Republic or Poland, I'd say such results are OK, but not with our traditions, conditions for training etc.
