Switzerland's women showed promise in 2022, now comes the real test
"70% of the Swiss Olympic women's hockey roster plays their club hockey in Europe, with a good portion of them making their name in the Swiss league. Of the remaining seven players, two play in the PWHL, four are enrolled in collegiate hockey programs in the United States, while one plays in U Sports - Canada's primary postsecondary athletic division."
"Entering her fourth Olympic Games, Alina Müller will look to incorporate her PWHL and Olympic experience into a team that largely boasts European experience. As a member of the Boston Fleet, Müller has been an incredibly important contributor on the offensive side of the puck. Through fourteen games this season, she's tallied nine points (two goals and seven assists); her career with the Boston Fleet thus far has seen her record forty-four points (fourteen goals and thirty assists) through sixty-four games."
Switzerland's women's hockey team debuted at the 2006 Olympics, reached the final four twice, and won bronze in 2014. Seventy percent of the Olympic roster plays club hockey in Europe, many in the Swiss league, while the remaining seven include two PWHL players, four NCAA collegiate players in the United States, and one in U Sports in Canada. All but two players also participated in the 2025 World Championship. Alina Müller, entering her fourth Olympics and a key offensive contributor for the Boston Fleet, brings PWHL experience and scoring production. Alongside Lara Stalder, Müller could drive Switzerland toward knockout success and medal contention.
