BRATISLAVA, Slovakia (AP)—With more goals than minutes in the game, Slovakia’s
women’s ice hockey team claimed an amazing 82-0 victory over Bulgaria in Olympic
qualifying.
Slovakia outshot the Bulgarians 139-0 during the 60-minute game, played in
Latvia. The margin of victory is a record for a women’s International Ice Hockey
Federation-sanctioned event.
“We took it as training,” Slovakia coach Miroslav Karafiat said after
Saturday’s game.
Janka Culikova led Slovakia with 10 goals, while Martina Velickova scored
nine. Fourteen different players scored at least one goal.
Slovakia, which also beat Croatia, Latvia and Italy, advanced to another
qualifying group with Germany, Kazakhstan and France. The winner will secure a
spot at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics.







Bulgaria was eliminated after scoring one goal and giving up conceding 192
in the tournament.
The Slovakian men’s team clinched its biggest ever victory against the
Bulgarians 14 years ago when they won 20-0.

They apparently were going for the world record which was 92-0 or something like that.

I don't know who to be more perturbed with - The Bulgarians for bothering or for the people in charge for allowing them to enter this competition. They clearly weren't even close to being competitive enough.

Well there's not much competition out there and how else do they get better or know where they stand.

LOL! I guess they know now.

I don't know how they would do it but you'd think being humiliated by a far superior team wouldn't be the best way to go about getting better nor would it be the best way to see where you stand. Who knows maybe that was a thrill for them? LOL.
