What Now?

Slovenia: Anze glad they made it through? After getting promoted to the World Championship last year, they go out and qualify for the Olympics. Everything is coming up Slovenia.

Belarus: They probably feel disappointed after coming into the tournament with one of the better teams. Now, they have to focus on the World Championship.

Denmark: Along with Belarus, the host Danes must feel disappointed that they could not qualify. Will now get ready for the World Championship.

Ukraine: Coming in with a weaker roster didn't help the lower-ranked Ukraine in their qualifying bid. They will now get ready for Division II Group B in hopes they can earn a promotion back to Group A.
