5th Group of Athletes departed to Beijing today.

 

The Ice Hockey National Team. However only 18 of the 25 players (+1 Alternate) are now flying to China

 

Peter Cehlárik, Michal Krištof and Mário Grman had positive tests (Krištof thankfully has already the first negative test now, so he still need 3 more in the next days), the situation with Cehlárik and Grman does not look well, since Cehlárik is irreplaceable, the team will wait for him in Beijing until the last possible minute.  We play first match next Thursday, but we want have all players on place already for the Monday Training friendly match against :GER .

 

In other hand today also travelled with the team also the first alternate Mislav Rosandič (very likely will have to replace Grman in the squad) so maybe our Croatian friends will now cheer a bit more for Slovakia as he is very proud of his Croatian origins :d

 

The 4 players whom their Czech clubs refused to release before yesterday last Czech League round, arrived to the Bratislava bubble during the night and thankfully all four have negative tests, they need two more and will be able to join the team in Beijing Friday (Peter Čerešňák, Marek Ďaloga, Miloš Kelemen and Branislav Konrád) Hopefully the next days will fly also Krištof. And in later date also Cehlárik with Grman.

 

Slovakia has never missed the Ice Hockey Tournament since the independence in 1993, something we are really proud of (1994-6th place, 1998-10th, 2002-13th, 2006-5th, 2010-4th, 2014-11th and 2018-11th)

 

Btw. Fun fact from all the rosters of the 12 participating numbers, there only 2 U18 players on the rosters for Beijing 2022 and both are in :SVK team. So @heywoodu you can notice only two guys wearing masks aka face cages during the matches and both only in our team :p Both are this year NHL Top 10 projected draft picks, the defencer Šimon Nemec who will turn 18 during the Round of 16 game and then there obviously  "Slaf" a couple of month younger (Košice born :p) one of the biggest talents of slovak hockey history Juraj Slafkovský. Both will write history also this year. After playing already the Seniors World Championships in Riga last June, they played also the Olympic Qualification Tournament, The U20 World Championships, now they will play the Olympics Tournament and next April they will play the U18 World Championships and it is already sure they will be again in the 2022 Seniors World Champs. All in 1 year at the age of 17 :bowdown:

Nikoleta Celárová (Ice Hockey - Referee) btw she played at the Olympics in Vancouver 2010 as player in our National Team, In PC 2018 and now she was and is referee. what a story :d

 

Alexandra Valachová (Short Track) will be the head video jury referee assistant.

 

Radovan Šimočko (Biathlon) will be course referee and Ivor Lehoťan (Biathlon) will be one of the appeal and disciplinary Jury members

    • I think the reason is that it's generally preferable to have a fast shooter in the 1st leg, and especially in the prone shooting, where Hofer is quite slow.   Now, I'm not saying I agree with the choice, because I don't. I think it's going to neutralize Giacomel's skiing skills in the 1st lap at least.   I guess the idea is to try and set a very fast pace in the 1st leg, which is usually quite tactical, but I'm afraid that's going to force Giacomel to risk too much because he will feel he has to make some time somehow.   Regardless, Italy must be on the podium tomorrow. I think that would be crucial for the following races as well. I think France is the clear favorite, but the other teams are not stronger than Italy on paper.
