Here's a top 8 placements / points table (8 points for a gold, 7 for a silver,..., 1 for an 8th place).     Screenshot because copy/pasting gives some horrible formatting

With a single medal, better ranking for  compared to 2024 Summer Olympics (19 vs. 20)

CBC pulling an NBC and sorting the medal table by total medals instead of total golds so that you're tricked into thinking  is doing better than they are... you can't make this up

Two weeks before the Games officially begin, time to give my final predictions on the medal standings. :p

 

:USA will beat :NOR and win the medal table at the WOG for the first time in 100 years. All the (absurd) retirements of elite Norge athletes last season will have its consequences and they will drop to second.

 

:CAN will my bold pick to return to the top 3 after their horrendous Beijing performance, when it comes to Gold medals. 

 

:GER Germany will slip down and will have less than 9 golds for the first time in 50 years. Depending on how the chips fall in some sports, they could even be outside the top 5.

 

Home team of :ITA will have their best Olympics in some, better than Torino, but it still won't be enough to get into the top 5.

Time for more personal and detailed predictions:

 

:wSVK: will have it hard this time.

 

I'm trying to stay realistic about our chances. We're not going there as favorites in most events, and deep down I know it would be a big surprise if we suddenly overperformed or even dominated. Still, sports have a beautiful way of ignoring expectations.

 

We're never predicted to do amazingly well at either edition of the Olympics, so I’m desperately hoping for moments that will stay with everyone in the country for years, whether it's a final that keeps people glued to their screens or a performance that will make us proud. Just one medal could mean so much. It would bring real emotions and something to cheer for to a country that isn’t going through its best period right now. And on the rare occasion of a hockey miracle, celebrations in the streets wouldn't be an oddity.

 

It all comes down to four sports, the rest are out of reach:

 

  • Alpine Skiing is a big mystery, and it will all come down to Petra, whether she'll compete and eventually shock everyone with a heroic result. That's the best-case scenario.
  • Biathlon can be the dark horse, you never know how things turn around. The women's relay is probably our biggest chance, but all four of them need to deliver great performances.
  • As for Ice Hockey, our national sport, I'll always believe in another fairytale. I'll always believe we'll pull off a miracle. Since I wasn't alive yet when we won gold at the World Championships, I can only resort to watching old videos and imagine how amazing it must have been to watch as your country is the champion of the world in something. Best on the planet. Even the silver years later was amazing, but I was too young to actually remember it, so it's time for another hockey euphoria in the country.
  • Ski Mountaineering is a bit overlooked in the media right now, but I believe we have a huge chance of winning a medal in one of the events. Our athletes aren't minnows.

 

We're a small country, still relatively young. There's not much we're known for in the world, but sports are a perfect way to build a national identity, to stop people from thinking you're still part of a state that ceased to exist decades ago. Doing well in sports is one of the few things these lesser-known countries can show off, not just the ones in Europe.

 

I'm desperately hoping for a medal, and we all want those two weeks of the Olympics to be amazing and full of unforgettable moments.

Interesting forecasts, I like 'em!

I think the US wins the most medals, but Norway tops the standings (most golds)... have Germany neck-and-neck with Norway for medals, but fewer gold. 

 

Then have Canada and Italy fighting it out for 4th in 5th

 

Then have Sweden, Austrian, Japan, Netherlands and France rounding out the top ten, with them all within a medal or two of each other.

Of course reality will differ significantly :thumbup:

@hckošice Do you agree with me to some extent, or am I hopelessly dreaming? :lol:

Sure.

An eventual medal would do a lot of good to the country right now, but I am afraid there bigger odds we will return empty handed than we will bring a medal home 

 

- Our biggest star did not compete for 2 years and god know only if she will even start here, plus with bib 19 or 20 is simply impossible to medal anyway

 

- The hockey team let be honest stand no real medal chance against the full NHL squads, medals here are reserved to CAN, USA and very likely SWE

 

- Biathlete, especially Fialková are maybe our darkest horse, but only and only if she will improve her shooting, which, based on her recent performances on the range is quite hard to imagine. Still in a great day she can bring a bronze in the Mass Start for example, she is definitely capable of.. but yeah, require 4 zeros at the range

 

- Ski Mo, until last year was our safe medal. Not sure what happens during the summer, Big nations improved extremely, probably money resulting in better preprations and equipement improvement resulted that our Jagerčíková is still good but just can not keep the rhythm of the french and swiss of this season anymore.

      Your own programme for the 2030 French Alps Winter Olympics

      By SalamAkhi · Posted

      I'm not against team events or even mixed team events, but I think they need to be more than the sum of individual performances. So relays are fine (including team event in luge), team pursuit too, team event in skeleton is ok cause you have this different type of start though I would prefer the luge system (with a chip instead of this board you definitely can't touch in skeleton ?). Rest needs to be rethought at least. And rules need to be coherent between the sports regarding how many teams you can enter, why is it 4 duos in alpine combined event and only 1 in CC team sprint ? 2 would be my limit for dual events, even in sports where they usually don't enter more than one team in WC events.    Alpine skiing (10)   No changes.   Biathlon (11 -> 9)   - Mixed relay + Single mixed relay. Agree with De_Gambassi, different format from the gender relays, increased chances for weaker nations to compete even if we would have two teams for some countries. - Both pursuits. I've seen several people complain about how tired the athletes were by the end of the Games during the mass-starts. Thing is these are the same people that are adamant on keeping the pursuit in the program. Either ditch them or treat the sprint as a qualification round. You would then have one individual races, one MS and one "exciting" double-event.   Bobsleigh (4)   No changes. Max 2 teams per country.   Cross-country skiing (12 -> 11)   - Both team sprints. + Mixed team sprint.  Same idea as in biathlon. Like some I'm all for a real sprint and not the dull attrition races we witnessed in Val di Fiemme. Freestyle is mandatory, can be uphill/downhill but not longer than 1'30.  - 50km W + 30km W   Curling (3)     No changes.     Figure skating (5 -> 3)   - Team event.  Awful ranking system. - Ice dance.  "Dance", enough said.   Freestyle skiing (15)   - Team aerials. + Ski-cross mixed event. Ideally luge-like with immediate start after your teammate crossed the finish line. Alternate M-W order between the rounds. In snowboard cross men were almost useless all day long.   Ice hockey (2)   No changes.   Luge (6)   No changes.   Nordic combined (3 -> 4)   + Gundersen NH W - Gundersen NH M + Mass-start LH M - Team event + Mixed team event   Short-track speed skating (9)   No changes.   Skeleton (3)    No changes.   Ski jumping (6 -> 5)   - Super team M   Ski mountaineering (3)   - Both sprints + Both individuals   Snowboarding (11)   No changes.   Speed skating (14)   - Mass-start in the current format is shite + (Re)introduce an allround competition inspired by track cycling's omnium (first version). So a couple of individual races (500 and 3000 ?), an elimination race, a points races to end it.  (-) This would be endurance based so maybe ditch 3000/5000.

      Worth noting that these Olympics, there were separate qualification and event threads where as in the past, they were merged together in one thread so that makes the increase in replies even more impressive.

      Your favorite moments at the Winter Olympic Games Milano Cortina 2026

      By Federer91 · Posted

      The best part of last nights closing ceremony was the highlight montage Eurosport made.   Anyone who didn't see it NEEDS to see it. Amazing.   Probably my second favourite montage of an OG after the London one in 2012.

      After our first ever Olympic medal, it's time for our first Paralympic medal.  The chances are good, but I'm traumatized by the Chinese after 2022.    I'm also concerned about the atmosphere of these games.

      no, there was a world cup stage also the following year, then the track was dismissed and the hall reverted back to its usual tasks (not sport related)

      That wasn't cheating, cheating is doing something against the rules for your advantage. I read the rulebook, and not only was it not clear enough on the matter for it to be a burned rock even though it should've been, there's no advantage to what he did.

      It seems to me that Finland, since the doping scandal in the winter sports in World Championship in Lahti 2001, has gradually begun to reduce its spending on sports. They used to be the biggest powerhouse in ski jumping, but now they can't even win a single medal. Hockey is certainly well-funded there, but it's only one or two medals, and you can't always win gold.
