Another prove about the very bad refereeing in the match SVK-DEN. this guy wasn´t even penalized in the match after his liquidating hit, and we didn´t played a power play after this crime. The guy even smiled impatiently in the bench after his attack  :crazy: the guy is ready for some mental institution...

 

anyway the disciplinary panel of the championship yesterday determined that his act(s) was intentional and dangerous. well done :yes even if only 1 game suspension is very weak punishment imo

 

 

Danish player suspended

Mathiasen-Weise to miss one game

 

Danish captain Christian Mathiasen-Weise has been suspended for one game due to an infraction in the last game against Slovakia.

 

With 98 seconds left in regulation time in the teams’ last preliminary-round game, Mathiasen-Wejse checked Slovak player Erik Smolka to the head.

 

Smolka skated around the Danish net trying to get the puck and push it towards the goal when Mathiasen-Wejse hit him to the head with his shoulder. Smolka fell to the ice and had to be helped to the dressing room.

 

Based on the clip and the player’s statement, the 2018 IIHF World Junior Championship Disciplinary Panel determined that the player changed his skating direction in the last moment to deliver a check to Smolka, who was in a vulnerable position because the puck was not near him. Instead of letting his opponent pass by, the player lunged toward his head and caught him up high without warning, which is an infraction of IIHF Rule 124 (Checking to the head or neck).

 

Considering the remaining time of the game and the score of 5-1 for Slovakia, the action was both unnecessary and dangerous, and recklessly put the health of the opponent at risk.

 

Therefore Mathias-Weise was assessed a one-game suspension, specifically for Denmark’s upcoming game on 2nd January 2018 in the relegation round against Belarus.

Wow :CZE  just eliminated Finland !!!! :woot: Čechy !!! :bowdown:

 

yeah...nice game...the Czech guys did show some character...they came from behind twice (the decider with just 2-something minutes on the clock) and in the shootout their goalie was just better than Finland's (the second goal he allowed...a really soft one, between his legs :facepalm:)...

 

p.s. now Canada are just destroying Switzerland...:(

hope it won't end up in something too humiliating for my Swiss neighbours...

What about the Swiss coach saying that his team will be destroyed by the Canadians before the match :d

    • Some of the small nations have competed in the past but usually lost 30-0 to the Aussies
    • Officials persons (include Head) of RLF are still in ban. For example, Vaelbe has spoken even more terrible words but, however, CAS obliged to gave them AIN status. And it's the same situation here - FIL must to implement CAS's decision. But it's not clearly FIL's criterias for AIN status and that too strange
    • For Modern Pentathlon, it's interesting that Africa only gets one continental championship spot, considering how well Egypt does in the event.  (But then again, it's max 2 athletes per NOC per gender.)  Presuming that an Egyptian wins the African CCh, I suppose their performance in the other major competitions will allow the second competitor to come through.
    • Statement from the president of the russian Luge federation (yesterday): "Our team is in Kazakhstan and is preparing to apply for U.S. visas. We are setting an example for our entire country, especially for the younger generation. They see that a difficult path is not a reason to give up. It teaches perseverance. In this perseverance lies our shared strength, our mission to millions of young people for whom sports are a guiding point and a shining star. I believe in our country, in our strong-spirited guys. I sincerely love and respect our president, Vladimir Putin. He is the best president in the world. May God grant him strength and good health."   Do they deserve neutral status?
    • I did not think it would happen again but... I created similar post for Paris - 2024 https://totallympics.com/forums/topic/27489-ain-athletes-qualification-for-paris-2024-olympic-games-and-reallocation-of-quotas-post1-updated-1507/#comments  I was not sure if that reallocations would really happen but the reality was even more serious than the expectations. According to this research 43% of the neutral statuses issued by the IFs were fake AIN  - https://razom22.com/neutrality-research/  And the figures are based on the IOC decisions - not on the evaluations by Ukrainian NOC or sport ministry. Right now the situation is absolutely unclear. As usually )) Some notes: 1. Russians will not reject quotas for 2026 as they did for 2024 in judo and wrestling. 2. AINERP may be more loyal to russians due to the new member - Watanabe. His federation issued AIN status to Melnikova who took part in the primaries of the russian ruling party, had phots with Z and e .t.c. 3. I do not expect a lot of reallocations becaues of the total small number of the rus/blr athletes in qualification events right now. 4. BUT, even with these small numbers we see that FIS allowed to compete several incompliant persons.        Short notes from the IOC statement before Paris - 2024:   1. IOC`s decisions to reject quotas are final. 2. IOC`s decisions to approve quotas are not final - new facts may lead to the rejection of invitation. 3. IOC`s decisions cannot be appealed - NOCs were not invited to the Games, so it is a good will to invite individual athletes... or not   russians Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Adeliia PETROSIAN Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC Figure skating Petr GUMENNIK Men's singles Davide Lewton Brain Confirmed by IOC belorussians     Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Viktoriya SAFONOVA Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC  
    • I would say they will not be eligible. But it realy abotut the wording every federation has in its papers. World Aquatics changes their policies several times (especially after Mazepin "solved the issues" persoanlly - as witnessed one russian Olympic champion)   Inoirtnat notes on FIS decisions:   FIS points are frozen for ruissns and belorussians - so the situation is not so complicated for a lot of them. The list of the AIN`s is not final as the list from ISU was. It means that persons mau be not only removed from the list but added as well. I expect russians to try some freestyle applications before the stage in China, for example. FIS has not problems with the deny of visa or entris by the host countries. So they kept the possibility to close the doors for the russians for all the countries as ICF did. No sanctions for this, no removing events from the Olympic qualification list, no host changes,   * * * * * Here is the the relevant extract from FIS papers for Aerials tram event. What do you think?
