Alina Muller
Everyone knows how good the 24-year-old Muller is today, but maybe not everyone knows how good she was as soon as she became a teenager. She played at the Olympics BEFORE playing at the (top-level) Women’s U18, winning a bronze medal in 2014, at 14 the youngest hockey player ever to reach the podium. En route to the top division of the WW18, she scored nine goals in five games for Switzerland. A year later, she made her top-level WW18 debut and didn’t disappoint, scoring five goals in five games, including the winning goal in a 2-0 victory over Finland in the round robin. A year later, she had seven goals in as many games and was named Directorate Best Forward.
