Cross-Country Skiing FIS World Cup 2020 - 2021

I don’t know...the Finnish skier was in front, and he chose the outer lane. The Russian followed him into the lane (not on purpose most likely), and then was mad that the Finnish skier skied in the center of that lane. To me, that part of the move was clean. If the Russian is faster, then the onus is on him to go into a different lane and pass. Now, if the Finnish skier blocks him then, then that would be a dirty move.

Exactly. Basically Bolshunov tried to get into a space that did not exist. Yeah, then it goes wrong. Although it would still be great to finally get an angle from the front from the moment they're still in the corner. The replays started a little too late.

Sometimes I like to keep track of what happens to Instagram accounts of the relatively unknown athletes who suddenly get into spotlight for whatever reason (like Joni Maeki today).

 

Apparently getting bullied by Bolshunov is worth about 2k followers. :p

Forgiveness is the usual outcome of an apology.

 

It would suck if he was banned, maybe deserved, but with Norwegians back, entertainment value would drop hard without him.

 

Fines work, don't they? Lets do that.

This confuses me:

The COOP FIS Cross-Country World Cup finals will take place in Lillehammer (NOR) from 19th to 21st March 2021. The final World Cup competitios of the season 2020/21 were originally scheduled in Beijing (CHN) but had to be cancelled earlier in the season. With Lillehammer in replacement, a save solution was found in connection to the overall calendar as the FIS Cross-Country family will be located in Oslo (NOR) the weekend before, for the Holmenkollen Skifest. 

 

In the meantime, the two Cross-Country World Cup events in Norway were given green light thanks to the approval of the health concept by the national health authorities. 

 

The schedule for Oslo can be found here. The detailed programme for the World Cup finals in Lillehammer will be published as soon as possible on the World Cup calendar on fisski.com/cross-country.

But....Lillehammer was for early December and has been postponed, after which the women's ski jumping and the Nordic combined were recently finally given a date (in February), but the cross-country events there are still listed as postponed. 

 

Oslo is still the only World Cup in Norway this season according to the FIS calendar, but this FIS article suggests otherwise.

    • Frölunda Overcome Luleå in OT to Claim Fifth CHL Title   Game Recap   For only the second time in Champions Hockey League history, the Final went to overtime, wher e Frölunda Gothemburg were crowned 2025/26 European Club Champions as they took down Luleå Hockey 3-2 to lift the the European Trophy once again.    Jere Innala played hero for the hosts who secured their fifth CHL title in front of a sellout crowd in the Scandinavium.   Neither club conceded much ice to the opposition in a scoreless first period that showcased a solid demonstration in defence from both sides.   Though Frölunda ended the stanza with shots in their favour 8 to 3, it was an opportunity for Luleå, who almost broke the deadlock near the midway mark when a deflection in front nearly got past Tobias Normann, who made good on the save.    Then, early in the second, it was the visitors with another excellent attempt when a cross-ice feed almost found the back of the net on a tip-in chance that ricocheted off the far post as Normann slid across to manoeuver it back into play.    Later on, Luleå became the recipients of the first powerplay of the night, but it was the hosts taking advantage when the hero for Frölunda from the 2017 CHL Final put his team in front on a brilliant individual effort.   Nicklas Lasu, who went pointless in the Playoffs, intercepted a pass near the blueline before dashing towards the offensive zone, where he skated in all alone and wristed the puck past the blocker of Matteus Ward to open the scoring.   Puck dropped in the third and immediately Luleå set about dictating the pace of play and it paid off when Eeto Koivistoinen tipped in a shot from the point to even things at 1-1.   The side's leading scorer, Mathias Bromè, whipped the puck towards the net as Koivistoinen, who was parked just above the crease, got his stick on it to deflect it into the cage.   Minutes later, however, Frölunda found their second with a deflection of their own on the powerplay.    Play developed when Henkrik Tömmernes played catch with Innala along the near wall before fluttering the puck through traffic as Jacob Peterson managed to redirect it past Ward to regain the home side's one-goal lead.    The visitors continued to play desperate hockey in the final minutes of regulation and were rewarded when, with just 16 seconds to go in regulation, it was Luleå levelling the score thanks to Otto Leskinen's first-ever CHL goal.    Leskinen glided down the near side where the puck eventually made it to his stick, as he corralled it and then fired it far side past Normann.   In the extra session, it was some undisciplined play which resulted in a powerplay opportunity for Frölunda, who made the most of it when Innala converted on a one-timer from inside the near circle that beat Ward clean glove side to lift his team over Luleå and become the 2025/26 CHL Champions.
