- The guy on the left side of the photo finished 6th, but that's only Lewandowski and he doesn't really look like Lewandowski?

ale...sędziowie dobrze to sędziowali.

 

Jurecki zgubił piłkę pod bramką Danii, potem Lijewski zgubił krycie pod koniec ostatniej akcji Danii w normalnym czasie gry, nie przeciął podania choć był blisko, a Kus sfaulował Duńczyka, który już tracił równowagę i spudłowałby na 90%. Faul był - głupi i kosztowny, ale był. Detale, ale one decydowały.

 

A w dogrywce mimo gry w przewadze schrzaniliśmy I połowę, widok zapłakanego Bieleckiego zapadnie mi na długo w pamięć. Bardzo przeżyłem tą porażkę, ale choćbym chciał, złego zdania o sędziach nie powiem, Polakom też w miarę długo trzymali pasywności, nikogo nie faworyzowali na 100% wg mnie

I fell in love with sports.....since i first seen it

Ted Nolan to coach Poland

Former NHL Coach of the Year takes new challenge

Z

Ted Nolan (right) and Tom Coolen (left of him) coached the Latvian national team until 2014 and will be in charge of the Polish national team in the upcoming season.

 

The Polish Ice Hockey Federation hired Ted Nolan as new head coach of the men’s national team. He arrived in Warsaw yesterday. The 59-year-old replaces Jacek Plachta whose contract was not renewed after three years.

“We count on the Canadian hockey school. This country has been the best in the world in recent years and I’m glad we have been able to find an agreement with such a great coach,” the federation’s president Dawid Chwalka said. “Ten Nolan has worked not long ago in Latvia and knows European hockey. We expect that with this staff we will reach improved results.”

After promotion to the IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship Division I Group A, Poland quickly established itself in the second tier with two third-place finishes on home ice in Krakow 2015 and Katowice 2016, tightly missing a return to the top division for the first time since 2002. Last spring in Kyiv, Ukraine, Poland ended up in fourth place.

Nolan, a First Nation Canadian who grew up in the Garden River reserve near Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, was coaching the Buffalo Sabres and the New York Islanders in the National Hockey League. He won the Jack Adams Award as NHL Coach of the Year in 1997. Between 2011 and 2014 he was coaching the Latvian national team at several occasions including the 2014 Olympic Winter Games and the IIHF Ice Hockey World Championships in 2012, 2013 and 2014 before focusing on his coaching duties with the Buffalo Sabres where he was released in 2015 despite two more years under contract.

Under Nolan the Latvian national team had its biggest success in recent years during the 2014 Olympic Winter Games. The Latvians edged Switzerland 3-1 in a knockout game to make the quarter-finals in Sochi where they gave eventual champion Canada a hard time but eventually lost 2-1 on a late power-play goal from Shea Weber.

As a player Nolan appeared in 78 NHL games for Detroit and Pittsburgh in the ‘80s. His son Jordan has played for the Los Angeles Kings for six seasons winning the Stanley Cup twice and his other son Brandon shortly played in the NHL as well, for the Carolina Hurricanes.

“I love challenges. I’ve always been an underdog my whole life. When this opportunity came and seeing where Polish hockey has been for a while, hopefully I can make a difference and rise up to a higher level. I’m really looking forward. It’s probably my biggest challenge to date and my biggest excitement to date,” Nolan said after landing in Warsaw.

“I looked at when they’ve been in the top division competing against the bigger nations and they haven’t been for a while so I’m really looking forward to getting to that level. You have to be very tactical. You have to know what you’re doing, you need to be aggressive, hard-nosed, hard-working. If you compete hard, work hard and play smart, great things can happen.”

Nolan will include his former assistant Tom Coolen in his coaching staff, who recently joined club team GKS Katowice as head coach. The first time the duo will meet the team will be at the end of August. An exhibition game is planned on 30 August in Budapest against Hungary.

Poland will battle for promotion to the 2019 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship next spring. At the 2018 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship Division I Group A in Budapest from 22-28 April 2018 the opponents will be Slovenia, Italy, Kazakhstan, Hungary and Great Britain. The top-two teams will qualify for the 2019 Worlds in Slovakia.

    • Judo? That would allow France to win a lot of medals.
    • Nazgul entering finish line in womens team sprint qualifications.
    • luckily for all of us (myself included, I don't want to get mad), I will never rule on anything anywhere (not even at home) 
    • Easily the best work assignment I’ve ever had. It was an incredible experience in-person at the Arena di Verona. 
    • I know that probably nobody care about it here, but today in Wisła were held national championships. Only one round was held, with second being cancelled by heavy rain.   Kacper Tomasiak was winner with 128.0m, second was Dawid Kubacki with 131.5m and third was Paweł Wąsek with 122.5m, 47 jumpers competed in it.   Among womens winner was Anna Twardosz with 117.0m, second was Pola Bełtowska with 106.0m and third was Nicole Konderla-Juroszek with 88.0m. Only 4, yes four jumpers take parts in it, additionaly Konderla-Juroszek announced break from sport after being bronze medalist.    And still people were mad about Bełtowska results in Olympics. How it can be good when we have, now, just 3 active female jumpers???
    • And that's a wrap! The end of the Olympics always gets me. For a couple of weeks, the whole world is cheering, feeling the same highs and heartbreaks together, and suddenly it’s over. I’m really going to miss that.
    • I think Compagnoni is one of the biggest talents in the history of alpine skiing (in a different universe where she didn't have all those the dramatic injuries, she'd probably be a GOAT candidate), but in terms of career achievements, I believe Brignone is above her at this point.
    • Alpine Skiing Return of the team parallel event   Biathlon No change   Bobsleigh Remove the two-man and just have monotone and four-man for both genders.   Cross country skiing No change   Curling No change   Figure Skating No change   Freestyle Skiing Add mixed ski cross team event, mixed dual moguls team event, and a rail event   Ice hockey No change (yet)     Luge No change   Nordic combined Men’s team event back to four athletes Add one women’s individual event Add a mixed team event   Short track No change   Skeleton No change   Ski jumping Men’s team event back to 4 athletes per team Add women’s team event   Ski mountaineering Add individual and vertical races   Snowboarding Add PSL Add a mixed team parallel event Add rail event   Speed skating Remove the women’s 3000m and add a women’s 10000m Add the team sprint   New Sports Cross country running Men’s and women’s individual and team events, mixed relay   Cyclocross Men’s and women’s individual   Freeride men’s and women’s ski men’s and women’s snowboard   Ice climbing men’s and women’s speed men’s and women’s lead  
    • I never thought I'd see the day Italy had a 30-medal and 10-gold edition of the Winter Olympics, so there are probably too many to choose from.   Brignone winning the Super G, because to me that was the story of the Games from a human standpoint.   Lollobrigida winning the 3000 meters, because it was the most jaw-dropping performance for me, as everybody — herself included— was saying she had a very rough preparation for the Olympics.   The 1-2 in the men's skicross, because it was the one race in which I got to taste the excitement of gradually realizing that something unbelievable is about to happen. That's probably why the first moment that comes to mind when I think of that race is not the final, but the quarterfinal in which the Italians eliminated Howden.   If I have to choose just one moment, I'll go with those 3 hours on Sunday February 15th in which I saw Federico Pellegrino realize his dream of a relay medal, then Federica Brignone win the giant slalom, and finally Lisa Vittozzi win the first ever Italian gold in biathlon, with a silver medal in snowboard in the middle.
