JoshMartini007 2,210 Posted January 28, 2017 #71 Share Posted January 28, 2017 As a hockey nation China's men's team is weak. They're a division II team (playing in the B group in 2017). Meanwhile Kazakhstan spends its time bouncing between division I and the championship group. Obviously both nations aren't sending their best players, but Kazakhstan would have to send a very weak team (which would be weird considering they are hosts) for China not to get crushed.

heywoodu 13,547 Posted January 28, 2017 #74 Share Posted January 28, 2017 (edited) Meanwhile it's deep, deep in the Kazakh night (03:00) and the plane from Frankfurt (GER) carrying, among others, Team Brazil (one athlete, one official) has landed at Almaty airport a few minutes ago. That's gonna be a very late arrival before they can finally get to bed...(remember, they've mostly been travelling non-stop since yesterday afternoon already, with a few very short hours of sleep in between). Oh well, they're in Kazakhstan, let the adventure begin Edited January 28, 2017 by heywoodu If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

No idea yet, they basically arrived, threw down their stuff, sent me some pictures and went to sleep, understandably I'll definitely ask today though before they're off to the opening ceremony hckošice 1 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
