This is not going to effect Olympic qualification as it is a 100 tournament.

More like because most of those who registered so far has no more chances since they have higher ranked compatriots.

Momota underwent a surgery again after he was back in training. An undetected fracture under his right eye made him seeing "double shuttles"

With less than 6 months to go for Olympics, a big blow to Momota. He was among the top players in 2016 as well but missed Rio Olympics due to gambling. Now this.

It is expected that he needs another 3 months, most likely he will miss all the tournaments until Thomas Cup.

 

He is indeed very unlucky

Missing Rio was his own dumb fault though, not 'unlucky' :p 

 

This time he was a victim in a car crash? Not the one who caused it, I assume?

Well if he was busted after Rio, that will be a different story :p

 

 

Just like Ben Johnson, he was 'unlucky' at Seoul ;)

    • At now only 3 times in a row we fail to qualify for the World Cup and calcio will be should down. It is just sad that this sport is given so much attention and money that it doesn`t deserve at all. There are 100 other sports that deserve it more and if more money were allocated to them, it would bring concrete results. 
    • That is what UEFA published after the draw.

    • Zürich's Sven Andrighetto won both the Top Scorer and MVP awards of the 2024/2025 CHL    
    • Zurich fend off Färjestad to claim European Club Champions title     Zurich defeat Färjestad to become CHL Champions Färjestad's inability to convert on special teams was costly Sven Andrighetto scored both goals for the Swiss     Sven Andrighetto scored twice, including the game-winner at 32:33, and Šimon Hrubec made 31 of 32 saves as ZSC Lions Zurich kept the European Trophy in Switzerland with a nail-biting 2-1 victory over Färjestad Karlstad.   The Swedes scored late to bring the game to within one, but a dominant defensive effort from the Swiss side helped secure their well-deserved win in the 2024/25 Champions Hockey League Final.   Both netminders were excellent through the first 20 minutes, but an opportune moment near the end of the frame enabled the Swiss to break the deadlock when Andrighetto slid a loose puck between the pads of Maxime Lagacé to open the scoring at 17:48.    Dario Trutmann threw the initial shot on net as the puck ricocheted off several players before finding its way to the top of the blue paint where Andrighetto deposited the loose change to secure his ninth of the year.   Then in the second, it was Andrighetto again as the 31-year-old extended his club's lead with seven and a half to go in the middle frame.   Play developed as Denis Malgin skated the puck through neutral ice before dropping it off for Rudolfs Balcers who quickly dished it to Andrighetto in the near circle where he one-timed it past the Färjestad netminder to make it 2-0 in favour of the hosts.   The Swiss continued to put on a defensive clinic in the second, mitigating the Swedes' offensive pressure and minimising their high-danger chances.   Hrubec managed to turn aside all 20 Färjestad shots through the first two periods to keep his club's advantage heading into the third.   Still trailing by two, the Swedes were awarded their fourth powerplay of the night when Zurich's Malgin was called for Boarding at 50:59 and would make good on the ensuing man-advantage thanks to Per Åslund's second of the season and first since his goal on Game Day 1.   Off the face-off win, the puck found its way to David Tomášek who slid it towards the stick of Åslund who was parked at the top of the crease where he redirected it past Hrubec with less than ten minutes to play in regulation.   Desperate to find the equaliser, Färjestad pulled their netminder in the closing moments but Zurich's defence, spearheaded by Hrubec, pulled through as the Swiss fought off the Swedes' last-ditch effort to claim victory and be crowned European Club Champions.
