Not good start of the home world championship season...especially the second period was pretty embarassing, after a decent and let say satisfying opening frame we got clearly outshooted and outskated in that 2nd period, the guys were too much slow and annoyingly lazy, thankfully we recovered a bit in the third period, but stupid fouls (especially the Gernát´s crosschecking) costed us a better result...Anyway this is still the start of the long road until the WCh and the coaching staff has to test as many players as possible to find the best possible team for May, some new faces like Puliš or Lántoši showed today some interesting things.

The match Poland - Denmark has been interrupted after 45 minutes of play, it was 1 hour ago because of Ice issues in Gdansk...they still for some reasons don´t know how to fix that...not sure if I understood correctly, but it looks like the game will be finished tomorrow, that would means probably that also the next game :AUT vs :NOR will be played tomorrow...

 

This tournament started very bad...it looks like one team do not want to play (Poland experiencing some internal problems with boycotting players), one team have nothing to play with (Austria lost equipment dring the ravel - their match vs Norway was already postponed to this evening - previously was scheduled as the opening match) and the third has not where to play (Denmark because of ice issue ):p

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:

    • my picks...   all the home teams except for the Vikings winning in LA
    • my problem isn't that*...it's that I just can't stand the test match format    I'd rather watch T20 or ODI...I don't like even the T10 format   *I just discovered that we can watch the 7+ ott also here in Italy, just need a good  VPN and a bit of patience to register to their portal (it's completely free, and the app on the amazon firestick works way better than the regular website on my PC)    for those who like to dare, there's a chance to subscribe to Kayo Sports, too, but I didn't take the risk yet...you know...   meanwhile, for those who are more into "a certain kind of stuff"  there's always the magical app Sportsfire (it works basically only on the amazon firestick, though)...and you have a whole world at your feet  (when it worls )
    • Meanwhile, a bit of a request for help: I have been trying, but if anyone can find the qualification rules for the world championships in Trondheim, specifically the requirements to be allowed to start in all races, that'd be great, I can't find it anywhere yet..   Edit: of course I found it right after asking for help     Only remaining question is: does 'current' mean what at that moment is the current list (the 6th FIS points list) or the one that is used for the eligibility for the WSC 2025 as listed on the 'Dates of the lists' document (5th FIS points list)?    
    • Happy New Year to you as well!   So, we got back from Oberwiesenthal Sunday night, after an adventurous drive in the snow and a long road back home. It went well there: the classic sprint on Saturday resulted in 314 points, which improved her own position towards the team sprint in the world championships (being in the team sprint is potentially very important towards the Olympics). She beat her main rival by a whopping 11 seconds, so that was awesome.   20k mass start classic on Sunday wasn't that good: in the first of six laps, some athletes around her fell, one of them hit her left foot (the one that got injured in the accident 3 years ago) and that resulted in quite some pain. I was waiting with my drinks in the coaching area, but after the field passed there in lap two, she didn't appear, so I knew something was up. Walked back and saw her walking towards me, then she explained what had happened. The pain after being hit in the foot was too much to keep going for 16km, especially in a race that wouldn't count for the Olympic ranking anyway and was only meant for 'racing rhythm', continueing could do more damage than good.   That's a shame, but no problem, the sprint went well and that was WAY more important. Also: the day before the race we went to the Polish wax cabin to ask for help, because she does always need someone to wax her skis and 'Team' Brazil isn't really an option. The Polish very gladly helped (and were paid with a nice 12-pack of beer we brought for that occassion) and the skis were really good, so that was fantastic. Even better: after the mass start, and explaining why being hit in the foot was such a problem and so on, the wax guy - without us even asking - offered to also help at the world championships, and invited her for a training camp with the team in the summer     December had gone very well as well, right now (with still this entire season and half of next season to go) she is leading the Brazilian Olympic ranking by a nice margin. Of course many races to come for everyone, but so far, so good!   Next option is 17-19 January, FESA Cup in Falcade. Financially it's a bit tough, since that is yet another 2300km with the rental car (with which we already did 1600 now, and we only have 2000 on the contract, so every km outside of it costs 20 cents), plus another accomodation needed. We're looking into the options, because Falcade has a classic sprint AND a 10k freestyle, which is the absolute perfect combination considering those are the things that count for the Olympic ranking. We're trying to scrape enough together, so...we'll keep you updated

    • Heraskevyvh is very good in this season. He did worse last season. Our team is unfortunately doing much worse now.    In luge, unfortunately, it`s difficult to break the dominance of Germany, Austria and Latvia. The USA has also made a lot of progress. I have also read that Russia may return under a neutral banner, so I don`t think we will win a medal in Cortina 2026. The only hope is that we will use our knowledge of the new track in Cortina and then maybe we will win a one medal, maybe in the women's doubles. Unfortunately, we don`t have a star like Armin Zoeggeler as before.

    • I still remember how Demi Moore swept the Razzies for Striptease almost 30 years ago and she won Golden Globes now? The acting industry must be short on talent, scripts or everything else   This being said I don't really watch too many new TV shows these days least of all those Marvel/DC action hero stuff that has taken over in the last decade plus. I know it's a box office gold mine but completely not my taste.
    • Yeah, Anora has been really hard for me to place in my personal rankings. It's a fun and enjoyable film for the most part, but it didn't quite generate the same awe or excitement from me that a few others have this season. Still, I was quite shocked to see Madison lose yesterday because she did a deliver a phenomenal performance in my opinion.    The best actress "race" still feels rather open to me, which adds a bit of suspense to each body's nominations.
