I would wish to all of you guys to see it and taste it. haha, well, I meet yesterday a group of fans from Turku and they had some girls among them phelps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phelps 7,214 Posted May 11, 2019 #272 Share Posted May 11, 2019 we wrote in the previous days that Italy is always the black sheep when it comes down to the media coverage of ice hockey...well, this morning we received some good news...all the games of the Italian NT will be broadcasted live on tv by Eurosport 2 HD (the Italian version only, of course)... acquisition that came after the world champs had already begun...as I wrote in the past day, never lose your nerves with the Italian TV Networks...it ain't over till it's over!

hckošice 13,339 Posted May 11, 2019 Author #278 Share Posted May 11, 2019 and about the crazy Finns. I saw one in Koivu jersey he walked on the pedestrian zone, pushing a large shopping cart full of beer. even the Finns in the pubs were laughing seeing him. Amazing atmosphere, really. This is a dream coming true for me to see this in Košice, and that win over USA was the special creme de la creme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
