IHLC Team Profiles – 🇸🇮 Slovenia

m-slovenia-team
🇸🇮 SLOVENIA (SLO) Men’s National Ice Hockey Team (1992-)

A newcomer to the world stage, the Slovenian national team first competed for the IHLC in 2003 – however, it was not until a pair of major wins at the 2014 Olympics that the Risi grabbed the world’s attention, led by NHL star (and only Slovene NHLer) Anže Kopitar. Slovenia nearly won the IHLC only seven years after their first game, dropping a 3-2 shootout heartbreaker to Denmark to remain IHLC-less.
