0 medal for sure.  :thumbup:
If a miracle happens, near the impossible, there could be a medal in Women's Snowboard Cross or Bobsleigh 4 man (they are top 20 in the world ranking). But I could bet millions, quietly, that this is not going to happen. :whistle:

Sweep potential

We're just gonna keep hoping Isabel somehow miraculously sneaks in the final and has some more luck there :d

4-5.

Definitely 2 from Sablikova (if there will not be problem with her back injury) 

Ledecka, Samkova (they are favorites especially Ledecka, but these sports are very risky and unpredictable) 

Ice hockey team (without USA and Canada,  we should be in big four) 

Potentially medal candidates: Erbanova,  biathlon,  biathlon,  biathlon,  biathlon)

Now that Yuskov and Kulizhnikov are ruled out (which is rather significant for the Dutch medal chances, hence the mention): 6-7 gold medals, 16-17 total medals.

To be honest, for me, the only REAL chances we have are all in ski jumping, where if we won't get at least one medal in each men's event will be disappointment. Personally I hope we will get something more in other sports too, but i don't believe in more than 5-6 medals, 3 of which should be in ski jumping.

My favourite Volleyball position: LIBERO. You ask why? Look here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyIOarNAONk
