That's very sad :( I was watching first period (couldn't watch whole match) and puck sometimes was moving in strange direction but I didn't expect that we can't prepare ice correctly to play whole 60 minutes. Not so long time ago we host WCh regularly (of course not elite, but still...). Rest of the match will be played tomorrow. Unfortunately I can't find any information about time for rest of the matches. Maybe tournament will be postponed and finish at Monday (strange thing, but it's holiday in Poland this year)? It's all chaos. It's even sadder if you think that this is tournament in the occasion of 100th anniversary of the restoration of Poland's sovereignty.

 

And about Polish hockey players. I don't want go into details, because it's more complicated. In short it looks like that: players want money for past matches, federation don't want to pay the whole amount - they claim that promise of payments was whim of ex-presidents, not idea of federation itself :dunno:

 

Well, it´s not like it´s the first time such thing happened, Ice issues are not so uncommon everywhere, even in top countries it happen sometimes. That´s not in fact so big deal or thing to be ashamed, they just have to fix it and the tournament can continue until Monday like you said, or if other teams disagree, because many leagues are scheduled already for tuesday, they just can pair teams and do a KO tournament, with semifinals tomorrow and finals on Sunday. Let´s see what will happen tomorrow.

 

Yes, that´s exactly what I heard, I know this feeling, we had boycotting players (all our 50 top players) boycotting the National Team for almost two years, fighting against peoples leading our federation, it was so frustrating and sad to follow that "war"...thankfully it s now over, we are slowly restarting our hockey, but we lost a lot during this period...and it will took a while until we will recover, hopefully it will go better and quickly in Poland

and now a huge mess occured also in Budapest, The match Hungary vs South Korea has been cancelled :lol: due to big troubles, first the plexi behind one of the goal was boken and the organizers somehow couldn´t fix that,after they finally solved that, the referee found huge ice issue around the red line and this problem showed later to be impossible to be fixed, after a hour and half of waiting both teams and officials agreed the match will be cancelled and replayed ....next APRIL PRIOR TO THE DIVISION I A WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP in Astana :roflmao: The tournament will resume and finish tomorrow with the last remaining match Hungary vs Italy...ofc if the ice issue will be solved

There's a reason I've been telling you forever hockey is meant to be played on grass, not on ice.

Where and when did you see a field hockey match on grass last time? :p

    • Who wins today? Johaug and Klaebo???   No  or  flags on the start so i cheer for Jasmi Joensuu  she’s the girl to watch this season, mind my words 
    • Sarcastically of course, cheering for the fact she basically received no punishment     Tennis and football are jokes in terms of combatting doping.
    • Excited as always   My main thought was "alright, only 18 countries in the women's race and apparently no wildcards for anyone, that's decent news"
