busy week in the European Hockey...

 

after the first CHL stint, now it's time for the beginning of almost all the main European domestic leagues...

 

Finnish Liiga is underway since Tuesday, yesterday the Swiss NLA started.

 

Tonight it was time for the Czech Extraliga and the German DEL to open their campaign, meanwhile tomorrow it's time for the Slovak Extraliga and the Austrian ICE League (with 3 Italian teams).

 

Saturday the Swedish SHL will begin, too.

 

All this, waiting for the NHL to start their show.

 

I'm ready for the full immersion...:popcorn:

 

 

p.s. @hckošice I saw that the AMC channels replaced the KHL (gone for obvious reasons) with the Swiss NLA :yikes: :cheer:

I'm almost in tears (of joy, of course)...:lol: ;)

HC Košice for the Title :cheer:

 

... but it would be a miracle though... :p

 

I will be entirely satisfied with the semifinals at least, again

I saw that Sunday afternoon the big match between Kosice and Slovan is live on RTVS :Sport :d

 

will you attend in person or just watch it on tv?

Looks the hell must have frozen over :yikes:

 

NHL apparently refuse to field gimmick teams to the World Cup :p No more Team Europe or Team North-America (which as you know was a team of U23 North American players).

 

It looks the 2024 World Cup will consist of 10 National teams and with a pre-qualifying round before the main world cup round, with 8 nations making the WC. Slovakia will be apparently invited for the pre-quali round :cheer:  NHL will have a break during the whole tournament, the matches should be played in February 2024 in both N. America and Europe with medal games in Montreal

The match will be played in Bratislava so no :d

 

HC Košice (The Steel Arena owner, asked 2 000 000 EUR for the rent of the arena to the club, justifying it by the high electricity prices, the club obviously temporarily canceled the contract and moved to the small Handball arena for training) asked for special exemption and all rivals agreed, so Košice will play cca the first month all matches away and will hope by this time the situation with the rent will be corrected

it looks they want to make it a new World Baseball Classic, then (I mean, with teams based mainly on marketing interest of the NHL)...

 

this might lead to make Italy a powerhouse, having a team filled with all the NHL players with Italian heritage (who normally can't play with us because they've never been in our Country)...:yikes: :facepalm:

    • The relation of Trump with Russia and, more specific, with Putin is probably the most controversial (being generous) thing of the presidence of Trump, i dont believe the same but is clearly that China help democrats in that election, both are playing their games.   In Argentina the society is clearly divided, the people who are in the left side of the politics, peronist and kirchnerism are very against the goverment, propably the only genuine "rigth-wing" goverment since the recovery of the democracy in 1983. For me and the most part who are in the rigth wing: libertarians, nacionalist and conservatives, is probably the best goverment we see to this days, he made in his first year with a very few legislators in the congress some big and good changes:   1) In the economical: the inflation is only 3% per month since a more of 15% in the last months of the last year, Argentina has now fiscal, financial and comercial surplus-   2) Our country didnt have fighter planes and the goverment buy 24  American F16  -   3) He chances the electoral sistem for a "single ballot" sistem, we have an obsolete electoral sistem that doesnt change from the 19 century and specially, the peronist use for make fraud.   4) In my personal case, he really update the tax sistem for smal/medium profesionals and traders.......and that save us to pay the 50% of our earnings to the state.   With a big expectations in the goverment, its better than i thinked before.
    • It could be better, or it could be much worse, for example, if the accusations that he has been accepting large amounts of money from Russia since 2017 are confirmed. Now let Harris win, which will end Trump's political career and I hope that in 4 years the Republicans will put up someone more predictable.     btw, how is this controversial president of Argentina doing?
    • More predictable is not always better, for me the goverment of Biden was one of the worst of the History of USA and i cant imagine what can happen with even a worse version like Harris is.   I hope, for the contrary, Trump be elected and "may be" the things changes for the better in the world.
    • I once read that Harris had never been to Europe before 2020, when she became vice president. On the other hand, her foreign policy will be more predictable, because it will be a continuation of Biden's policies. That is why I hope Harris wins, although the bookmakers are betting on Trump.
    • Harris is totally green on foreign policy. It will probably be a policy 100% led by Biden's people. Harris' main campaign emphasis is on abortion and women's rights.
    • So much for "everybody's laughing at us if we elect Harris"
    • My favorite tennis tournaments of the year (wta/atp finals)
    • was also invited to the special edition of the Bolivarian Games and seems like  is not participating.
    • Yeah this was amazing, the entire weekend was one massive rollercoaster every which way for everyone
