No, but that was already planned. There is no reason whatsoever to start there, since it won't count for the Olympic ranking anyway and it's basically just a waste of energy  
 
She'll be in tomorrow's sprint qualifying though, so...new day, new chances!

qualified for the first time ever in Sledge Hockey

I expected that but was hoping for much tighter game, but as expected we sadly joined today the club of Bullies
 

 
 

What a shot!
 

Where is the qualification thread?
 
Anyways, according to the provisional standings, Vietnam is currently qualified for women's monobob, while Cambodia is only 8 pts outside of the qualification zone. Crazy.

Oh fuck  
 
Gabi (Neres) was so so so so so excited about finally coming to Europe next week to compete again, she had gotten good boots from a World Cup biathlete, excellent skis were on the way as well, she was happy as a kid only two days ago to go and compete there  
 
I know it sucks for everyone involved, but she is the only one I actually know personally and am close friends with....I'm kind of devastated and heartbroken  

Finnish jerseys are awesome!

I am little bit disappointed of lack of interest for this championship. The arena Is nearly empty for each session (i can not compare with previous championship, because it is first ECH which i attented).
One "funny" moment. Organizators asked some school (students) to go there. It was really boring for them and so they made paper plane and it was landed on ice at moment when curlers was curling one stone. Finally they agreed to repeat this stone.

I agree, I think  is favored to win group B (though that’s going to be very competitive). Winning group B would presumably mean playing  in the QF. Very difficult match but not impossible.

Yeah, everything will be based on that quarterfinal. It is just absolutely essential to win the group to avoid CAN/USA in the QF then it is all open.

I kinda agree, Sweden is not the old Sweden they used to be ..... experience from last champs, Finland is playable so then, it depends on luck a current mental state. I would kinda expect semifinals for US, Canada, Russia and I hope Czech :-)

-   0-0 after 1st frame
 
 
and yeah we conceded a goal from

Great! The award is our! :-D

Interesting article: https://www.nhl.com/news/jamaica-aiming-for-goal-of-bringing-hockey-team-to-2026-olympics/c-326898064

have advanced to the Olympic Qualification Tournament.  both came very close, only losing by 1 stone each.

Poland beats Netherlands 3-2 our girls scored all 3 goals in last 8 minutes 

@Hipooo told me in PM that he is in.

have all advanced to the Olympic Qualification Tournament in Mixed Doubles. 

First 3 Beijing 2022 Olympians has been named today.
 
Jaro "Stop" Halák will finally return to the NT 
 

 
 
and also the first Košice born Beijing 2022 Olympian is in the group. Erik "Drago" Černák
 
 

They're already barely ever holding regular relays though, this only seems like something that will cut that down even further.

I actually don't hate this idea for relays because it would make them more competitive esp. for smaller nations. Mixed team sprint seems unnecessary as hell though. CC already has so many events.

Czech Republic: Ondrej Palat (Tampa Bay Lightning), David Pastrnak (Boston Bruins), Jakub Voracek (Columbus Blue Jackets)
 
 Finland: Sebastian Aho (Carolina Hurricanes), Aleksander Barkov (Florida Panthers), Mikko Rantanen (Colorado Avalanche)
 
 United States: Seth Jones (Chicago Blackhawks), Patrick Kane (Chicago Blackhawks), Auston Matthews (Toronto Maple Leafs)

Even more bizarre, was the BUL coach decision to pull the goalie for an extra player at score 77-0
 

As qualifying starts in a few days, here's my funniest ever women's ice hockey moment from the 2010 edition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RypeKwtL4U&ab_channel=Stecak
 
@hckošice "Anna Dzurnakova, number 14, team Slovakie. Ten minutes for misconduct, plus match penalty"
