Slovenia is a team that has come a long way since its first appearance in international play back in 1993. They have made seven appearances at the top level of the World Championships, avoiding relegation twice. Their best finish is 13th, coming in both 2002 and 2005. There's little doubt that this team will go as far as star player Anze Kopitar takes them, but this slowly improving group is still not to be taken lightly.
