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.

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

As I believe you've posted every single season, after commenting on recent results, suggesting enough interest to keep checking the results again and again only to be able to say "I don't care"
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?
