    • Tandrevold &  Kuzmina both in bad places.   Vittozzi looking confident.
    • At the pro level (NHL) 20 players dress every game - 12 forwards (4 lines of 3 forwards), 8 defensmen (3 pairs of 2 defensmen) and 2 goalies. You kinda need a third goaltender in a tournament setting (because if the starter goes down you still need a backup, and it's such a specialized position that you can't really get anyone else to fill in), and you also need one spare forward and defensman for when you need to do a healthy scratch. So 23 players is sort of the "default" roster size.   It was expanded to 25 sort of as a compronise - previously the roster size was 23 (still is for the women, though that will likely expand to 25 in 2030), but you were allowed to do emergency injury replacements during the tournament. Now, the roster is bigger (25) but you are not allowed, under and circumstances, to add a player after the tournament starts.
    • No need to apologize, you’re good 
    • I'm mostly amazed nations can bring 25 (!) ice hockey players  
    • Some fun fact trivia about our team   52 Athletes is 2 athletes more than 4 years ago.  36 of them are men (25 of them obviously the Ice Hockey players) and 16 of them are women     From the 52 athletes 31 will experience their Olympic debut On the other side Jozef Ninis in Luge will comepete at his 6th consecutive Olympics, which is the new  record at WOG     From the 52 athletes 13 are already Olympic medalists: 11 Ice Hockey players returning to the games after being part of the Bronze medal team 4 years ago Petra Vlhová has 1 gold and is the reigning Olympic champion in W Slalom Anastasiya Kuzmina in her world apart is with 3 Olympic Gold and 3 Silvers the most medalled Slovak athlete in history of the Winter Olympics (She is also the only female biathlete in history to win 3 Olympic golds in 3 different WOG)     The youngest athlete of the team is the 18 years old Short Track Speed Skater Lea Popovičová The oldest the already mentioned Jozef Ninis (44 years old)     4 athletes were born abroad the Anchorage, Alaska  born cross-country skier Peter Hinds (American father & Slovak mom) Tyumen  born and naturalized biathlete Anastasiya Kuzmina who comepete for Slovakia since 2008 and won all her successes and medals under our flag Graz  born biathlete Jakub Borguľa, just born there to Slovak parents and Jeseniky  born and naturalized cross-country skier Tomáš Cenek.   As already mentioned in the previous page,  will compete in 11 sports here, which is the new absolute record. We are returning after 8 years in Figure Skating, 12 years in Freestyle Skiing and 16 years in Ski Jumping. We will not start only in Snowboarding, Nordic Combined, Speed Skating, Skeleton and Curling. (Speed Skating, Skeleton and Curling remains from now the only sports we still never participated in at the WOG)     We will have debut in the Ski Mountaineering, and for the first time ever participate in 2-bobs, W Luge Doubles and Ski Cross.     Interseting fact to mention is also that from the 52 athletes 15 are born between 2004-2007   So now you know and can go enlighten further
