Do you have any thoughts on the final qualifying round ?

:SWE :JPN and :GER

 

If :RUS banned then I bet on one of :DEN  or :HUN. They should have better overall goal difference because of easier opponents than CHN, FRA pairing in the first group

I'm not an expert like he is, but personally, I'm a bit sceptical. Sure, it's incredible that we've made it to the final qualifying round (and avoided Sweden), but the girls played against Germany and Austria some time ago, and you could see the difference. They played well, no doubt, but it was obvious. That said, it’s been done before, so why not hope for a surprise and aim to have 50 athletes from Slovakia qualified with a year still to go?

We made it to Vancouver thanks to Zuzana Tomčíková between the pipes. She stood on her head during the final qualifiers. I am afraid this time we do not have similar goaltender. We may steal a point or two to Austria, maybe make life unpleasant to Hungarian girls, but I doubt the overall quality will be enough for more than this.

IIHF hall of Fame 2025 Class announced

 

The IIHF Hall of Fame is pleased to announce its Class of inductees for 2025. The seven new members include one Builder, Kai Hietarinta (FIN), and six Players. Two had sensational careers in the women’s game, Kim Martin-Hasson (SWE) and Vicky Sunohara (CAN). They will be joined by four equally accomplished men—Zdeno Chara (SVK), Henrik Lundqvist (SWE), Frans Nielsen (DEN), and David Vyborny (CZE).
 
The IIHF Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony will take place on medal day at the 2025 Men’s World Championship in Stockholm, Sweden, 25 May 2025.

Toronto Sceptres took on Montreal Victorie in Vancouver for the PWHL Takeover Tour, Marie Philip-Poulin’s first time back since the 2010 Olympics, and scored two goals including this ridiculous superman style goal :hyper:

The Canadian site, CBC, put up an article today about the junior phenom :SVK Nela Lopusanova

It looks :SVK will host the 2029 World Champs by default, since no one else actually officially entered the bid.

 

:HUN who wanted to host the tournament in their supermodern new arena in Budapest alongside Czech city of Brno for some reason forgot to send the required necessary documents in time :rolleyes: and :GBR officially announced they abandon the project during the previous christmas period

There som rumours :KAZ is/was considering to bid but never officially announced anything and IIHF did not inform about any their bid interest...

 

So it looks Bratislava and Košice will host the WCh for the third time in last 18 years

The IIHF has extented the suspension of :RUS and :BLR through the end of the 2025-2026 season. Unless the IOC intervenes this means :RUS will not be competing at the next Winter Olympics.
