Everyone played well for Slovenia in that game, that's what really stood out for me.
They didn't just hang on by the skin of their teeth for that win, or win because every single on-ice event went their way. They earned that one. Kopitar, as great as he was, wasn't the only one driving the bus.
They comprehensibly outdid Slovakia despite only having 1 regular NHLer compared to the Slovaks having 13 NHLers.
