The organizing committee announced that everything is finalzed and ready for the start of the tournament. They presented to our medias the changing room of :SVK team, our players will use the biggest locker room in the arena, the locker room of the local club HC Košice for this tournament.

 

One fun fact, they also said they received request of accreditation from 700 journalists from all over the world, with the biggest exotics being the full TV crew from China and one journalist from Mongolia.

No idea about the exact numbers and countries, but I am certain there some also from Italy (at least someone from the major sites like Gazetta or so) ;)

Maybe they will write and cover more about the champs from Friday.

 

I found this https://www.oasport.it/2019/05/hockey-ghiaccio-mondiali-2019-il-calendario-di-tutte-le-partite-programma-orari-e-tv-fino-alla-finale/

 

but really disappointed with this :

Quote

IN TV – In Italia non saranno visibili i match in tv, ma si potranno seguire sul sito ufficiale della competizione: www.iihf.com

don't be disappointed, it's the usual routine...also last year there was no tv coverage in Italy...:evil:

and when there was one (2016 & 2017, on a paid TV channel), it was only about our NT matches and the "final 4"...

last time we had a comprehensive coverage on TV, it happened for the joint bid SWE/FIN (and the finals in Stockholm), but it was on a shameful tv channel that nobody watch (and if you try and watch it, in any case you just can't see the puck because of the sh*ty picture quality)...:facepalm::wall:

 

p.s. however, with the Italian tv networks you can never be sure...they normally wait until the last second (and sometimes beyond that) before buying the tv rights...it's their usual tactics to save some money...

it could well be that friday morning (if not saturday) a tv channel makes an announcement: "hey, guys! you know whaat? we're gonna show some ice hockey in the next couple of weeks...stay tuned!"

Well, at least you are not going to face that issues, since you can catch CZ and SVK channels, so you should be able to watch everything without troubles :d

and here it is, the reigning champiions will send a true "All Stars Team" to the world champs.

 

Rikard Gronborg announced the final roster, he´ll bring to Slovakia 25 players (3 Goaltenders, 8 defencers and 14 forwards)

 

We can find a massive NHL stars armada in the team, exactly 18 !!! 

the goalies King "Henrik" Lundqvist (NY Rangers) and Jacob Markström (Vancouver), defencers Oliver Ekman-Larsson (Arizona), Adam Larsson (Edmonton), Robert Hägg (Philadelphia), Erik Gustafsson (Chicago), Mattias Ekholm (Nashville) and forwards Elias Pettersson, Loui Eriksson (both Vancouver), Marcus Krüger (Chicago), Adrian Kempe (Los Angeles), Mario Kempe (Arizona), Jesper Bratt (New Jersey), Oskar Lindblom (Philadelphia), Patric Hörnqvist (Pittsburgh, Elias Lindholm (Calgary) and William Nylander (Toronto).

 

The 7 remaining spots are fulfiled by 3 KHLers Philip Holm, Anton Lander and Dennis Rasmussen and 4 players from the domestic elite league.

 

The age average of the team is 26 years.

 

 

:SWE played 11 test matches !!! during last month, winning 9 of them !

4-0 in Slovakia in early April, 4-3 in Hungary against the Division I Group A participant, 2-0 and 5-1 over Norway at home, 3-2 and 2-0 in Denmark against the hosts, 3-1 in Finland and 2 wins during the last Euro Hockey Tour Tournament in Czech Republic 6-4 against Russia and 2-1 against Finland, they even won the Carlson Hockey Games (last Euro Hockey Tour 2018/19 stage).

Their only defeats are 4-5 in Finland against the host team and 0-3 to the host Czech Republic at the Carlson Hockey Games last Saturday.

    • Obviously impossible to know in advance but in 2022 all ten skaters Canada qualfiied skated individually, and 9/10 competed in a relay as well.
    • 4-3  over  at the break, Norway with hammer.
    • whatever you heard is just speculation. no one knows at the moment, probably even the orange himself.   and Iranian athletes failed to get visa so many times before. even female athletes. there is no pattern, it's just too random.    and yes Iran has a system of compulsory military service for men, and there is 50% chance for anybody to be randomly drafted by IRGC affiliated organizations. that's the case for Taremi and few others in the current team.  
    • Would you believe the NCAA Indoor season has already started?      
    • Some changes that I've noticed:   3x3 Basketball: With the expanded 12 team field, one extra team per gender qualifies through world rankings, one extra team qualifies through the universality driven tournament and there's now an Olympic Qualifier series to award the final quotas.   Beach Volleyball: Continental qualifiers have have priority over the World championship and World Rankings quotas and there's now Olympic Qualifier Series quotas.   Canoe Sprint: World ranking system now in place and will be used instead of awarding world championship quotas. Road Cycling: 2 nations ranking quotas per gender moved to universality.   Track Cycling: Sprint and Keirin ranking list is now combined and will award 14 quotas per gender. Previously it was 7+7. Team pursuit down to 8 quotas from 10. 2 of the quotas have been moved to madison (one additional team) and 6 to the omnium.   Fencing: Can get a Continental quota of you finished in the top 24 of the rankings. It was previously top 16.    Hockey: 2 pro league quotas replace two qualification tournament quotas.   Judo: 5 less universality places and 4 more Continental places. For men, there's two more spots for Asia, one less for Oceania and 1 more for the Americas. For the women, there's one more spot for Europe, one less for Oceania and two more for Asia.   Modern Pentathlon: Less quotas awarded through world rankings as a result of quota cuts.   Open Water Swimming: Introduction of world ranking qualifier.   Sailing: In general, seems to be more quotas awarded at the last chance regatta and less quotas at the World Championships   Shooting: One less quota handed out at each World Championship and the return on World Cup qualifiers.   Swimming: Olympic qualification and consideration times renamed to A and B standard. B standard is now 1% slower than the A standard compared to 0.5% in 2024. Stroke 50s have their own direct qualification events and have minimum time standards instead of A and B standards. Qualification times have been nuked again. B standard selection process has also changed.   Volleyball: New revised format. Continental championships first, then world championships followed by world rankings. In 2024, it was 3 qualification tournaments and then world rankings. Only 3 countries per gender will qualify by world rankings now compared to 5 in 2024
    • For Italy, the match against Japan and likely the final match against Estonia will be a safe/relegation game, but I'm think that whether the match against Estonia will be decisive on anything, if we have 0 points after 4 matches. We're currently the worst team here – we have 0 points and are taking significantly fewer shots than our opponents in each match. Japan and Estonia are looking better for now and unfortunately, without significant improvement play starting tomorrow, we'll likely be relegated to the fourth division. With the absence of Russia and Belarus, this will be a shame, even for the weaker 2006/2007 age generation. Especially, since we are playing this tournament at home. For anyone could have competed with a good shape, except perhaps Hungary, who are currently the best team in the tournament.
    • They shouldn't promise additional spots to countries that qualify 3 athletes in each distance, because then taking those spots away isn't fair. For example, in Italy, Previtali won the 500m QO for country but he would likely have to stay at home because the staff probably would have chosen Casinelli for the relay (Casinelli won't be competing individually at all). I don't know what the situation is in Canada with the fifth-place skater? Will this person only compete in the relay, or will he also be a reserve there? 
    • That's too bad. Athletes who finish in the top 32 (or 36 for the 1590m) should be the priority over the 5th athlete from a relay country.   So Croatia loses their 2nd women's quota, Hong Kong loses their only women's quota and Poland loses their 3rd women's quota.   This means that Great Britain, Slovakia and Ukraine should fill up the rest of the 1500m field since they are the highest placed reserves that doesn't require an additional quota.
