KHL Full Regular Season Calendar is out...:bounce:

https://en.khl.ru/calendar/

 

The KHL lords once again can not stop to surprise me with inventing new "innovations" :crazy:. This time they came with such "brilliant" idea to play two home matches of Slovan, Dinamo Riga and Jokerit Helsinki abroad of their home countries...

 

Slovan will play for example 2 home matches in Vienna (AUT) :lol: and both matches against two big guns against CSKA Moscow the Friday 26th October and two days later against SKA St. Petersburg.

 

Also Jokerit Helsinki will play 2 games abroad in Tallinn (EST) Spartak Moscow and Severstal Cherepovets. but the "best" is for Dinamo Riga which must play 2 of their home matches in Zurich (SUI) only some 1500 km from their own arena :roflmao: just like Slovan against the top two teams CSKA and SKA.

 

Peak of stupidity :bowdown:

Now fans in Bratislava and Riga will miss games with CSKA and St. Petersburg because of this...

 

Don´t know why for Riga, but KHL probably wants to take revenge to Slovan for this epic faux pas..:p

well, the fact the KHL play some games abroad is not really new...even a few years ago CSKA Moscow and Dinamo Riga played a game in Davos a few days before the start of the Spengler Cup (they both were among the participants to that edition of the Christmas classic)...

 

and I can see why they're doing it again...they just want to expand their market (actually, the NHL does the same with the European and Chinese matches...think about how happy are the US/Canadian fans to have 1 or 2 home games in another Continent :yikes::lol:)...

 

Wien, for instance, is one of the city that would like to enter the KHL in the near future (the Capitals have already asked for it, but their request has been frozen for a while at the moment)...

and I guess that Slovan has been chosen as the host of those Wien games because Bratislava is quite close to the Austrian Capital and there's a strong relationship between the 2 Countries, not only in sport things...

I don't think they want to punish Slovan for that fault...;)

 

the same criteria apply to Jokerit and Estonia, which basically is a Finnish province in demographic and cultural terms (even if Estonia is an Independent Nation, of course)...

 

meanwhile Dinamo Riga has been chosen to play in Zurich because of the strong relationship between the team and Swiss Hockey (among them, Kenins playing with ZSC Lions in Zurich and Elvis "miracle man" Merzlikins in Lugano...moreover, Dinamo is often guest to the Spengler Cup)...

 

so, if we really want, we can find a proper explaination for the KHL decisions...

but still, I can understand the Slovan, Jokerit and Dinamo fans arguing that in this way they lose 2 home games (and 2 very important ones in Slovan and Dinamo's case)...

probably they could have chosen more average games, but then the neutral site fans could have been not so intrigued by the uncommon experience and could have not pursued the tickets with the same enthusiasm...

it's always difficult to find the perfect balance in this kind of things, I guess...

Avangard Omsk is in huge troubles prior to the new KHL season, the club Probably irrevocably lost it´s home venue. It was found some serious deficiencies in the construction of the Omsk Arena. 

 

Avangard has to look for a new home and has to report it to the KHL leaders by August 15th. Currently, there are two options for Avangard in Russia - moving to Moscow and performing in Mytishchi, and the second alternative is to find a temporary home in Krasnoyarsk.

    • @bestmen Look, I've been reading your comments regarding Russia for quite some time, and I don't want to bite my tongue this time.   First, context matters. I agree with @copravolley. It’s not an insult to say that people who don’t live near Russia often underestimate what this war actually means for Europe. Out of the three of us, I can say with certainty that I feel the most directly affected by and concerned about this war.   In the same way I wouldn’t share my opinions on Africans and the conflicts on their continent, or lecture Palestinians about the war in Gaza, it’s reasonable to listen first when Europeans explain why this is not just a political disagreement that happens to block Russian athletes from competing, but an ongoing war of aggression that doesn’t only affect Ukraine, but also countless other countries located nearby with a long and dramatic history of communism and Russian influence. To make it clear, you're absolutely entitled to your opinion. However, you have repeatedly pushed the same narrative about the supposed injustice towards Russian competitors.   Second of all, the claim that Russian athletes have nothing to do with politics is blatantly wrong. It's a lie, and you know it. Countless Russians are actively supporting the crimes that Russia is committing on Ukrainian soil, advocating for further military operations, and show little to no remorse. Many Russians supported Putin throughout his presidential campaigns and continued doing so even after the invasion. Just look at their public statements made over the past three years. They are expected to align with the state’s narrative. That’s not an individual moral judgment, it’s how the system works.   Major Russian sports clubs are directly linked to or derived from the military. Hockey players wear war symbols and slogans on their jerseys, and this is only the tip of the iceberg. Russian sports and politics are two sides of the same coin, closely related ever since the state began pouring money into centralised doping programs and sporting propaganda. Bringing up Netanyahu or Israeli doping is pretty much just whataboutism. If there is proven, systematic wrongdoing in sport, it should be addressed through proper investigations and sanctions. That does not magically erase or excuse Russia’s actions, nor does it justify pretending this war doesn’t exist when it becomes inconvenient.

    • Slovakia pulled the goalie out in the Overtime and played 4 vs 3  for more than 2 minutes    We suddeenly pulled out goalie and have control of the puck for like 2 minutes in the first 2 minutes of the overtime but without soring than lost the puck and give up a 2 on 0 breakaway empty net goal for the czechs    Interesting strategy 
    • The doomongering made what I post on here seem positive. Everything possible to go wrong was predicted fo go wrong.
