The participation of the NHL players is not at all clear.

 

After the meeting of the board of NHL club governors, the commissioner of the NHL our beloved oberfuhrer Garry Dollar declared that he could imagine alternating NHL players at the Olympic Games with the World Cup organized by NHL

 

They already presented the idea to host the next World Cup.

 

It will be a World Cup. With 4 nations competing :roflmao: I swear it is true ! https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/38946563/sources-nhl-looks-put-four-nation-tournament-2025

 

Canada and USA playing 2 games in Ameeerika and Sweden and Finland playing also 2 matches in the respective countries, with the Two winners playing the Gold Medal game in Kaaaanada.

 

Absolutely briliant idea ! but I would rather remove both Sweden and Finland from the competition, maybe also USA since it is too much countries for a World Cup :lol:

 

 

But yeah, back to more important and more time worth thing. NHLers at the Olympics.

 

Bettman about the question if he will let his players to Milano.Answered that the Italians did not even start to build the Hockey arena for the Olympics and I do not believe they will build and open it at time, so what you want ? :p https://sport.aktuality.sk/hokej/clanok/ucast-hracov-nhl-na-olympiade-taliani-ani-nemaju-stadion-bettman-si-vie-predstavit-alternativu-2023120613421292917

Breaking news.

 

Lake Placid has put forth an offer to host sliding sports for the 2026 Winter Olympics, which are scheduled to take place in Italy, where organizers are struggling to provide a venue for bobsled, luge and skeleton racing.

 

The U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee announced the bid after its quarterly meeting Thursday, only two days after the chief of the Milan-Cortina Games said it is possible the hosts could come up with a new proposal to build a track.

I am genuinely trying to decide whether or not this is meant in a serious way :d

    • Fewer people do do this sport compared to the 90s, less money is spent on it, etc. In the case of women, at some point this sport was almost abandoned because of the belief that it was impossible to beat Scandinavia ( the times of Norwegian domination with Bjoergen and Johaug at the forefront). Only in the last 2 years has Markus Cramer been hired, who is gradually rebuilding the men's and women's teams. Suffice it to say that the last medalist of the World Championships for Italy in the women's was Arianna Follis in 2011... I will also remind you that in 2022 Pellegrino and de Fabiani trained with the Russian team, because the rest of the Italian team was in such poor shape that they couldn`t train together 
    • Well that is a totally different question  I too have wondered what happened to Italian cross-country and how there is no one coming for so many years. But it shouldn't take away from the sports where progress has been made. 
    • Where to Watch guide.  Discovery plus in most of Europe       https://www.ucitrackchampionsleague.com/watch-the-races
    • Appetite grows with eating. Especially since it's not like we develop in every winter sport... For example, 20 years ago we were a powerhouse in cross-country skiing and now we have only 1 Pellegrino (34 age) and a few talented youngsters. And let's remember that our performance in Turin was objectively weak for us: only 11 medals in total. Now, when I hear that we will to win 2O+, some discipline must definitely add medals and also compensate for the losses in cross-country skiing, for example.
    • The problem is that this mixed team has never played together since then. There was talk of personal obstacles. I don't know how it`s now.
    • Well that explains why she is wearing more clothes with every passing day.   Nevertheless that team is still one of the best in the world and is a vast improvement on what Italy was doing 10-20 years ago. 
    • Any idea where a full schedule can be found yet? I remember last seasons the website was always godawful in terms of providing that basic kind of information..
    • Constantinis team have made huge improvements since 2022 even if they are not best yet. And Constantini never was world leading in mixed doubles before Beijing olympic either so it is not like she really have lost anything since 2022 either, except not being able to repeat that success.
    • She had health problems yesterday. Nevertheless, after the gold in mixed doubles with Mosaner in 2022, I counted a bit more on her development. I still think that the biggest chance for us in 2026 will be the mixed team, rather than our teams.
    • I don't know who Italy should field for the doubles? Sinner has the greatest individual strength but he probably doesn't train with anyone on the team. Last year Sinner played 2 doubles with Sonego in the Davis Cup (two wins) but this year Sonego isn`t in the squad. On the other hand the Bolelli-Vavassori doubles are well-coordinated, as is the Argentine one, but individually these players don't even mean as much as Sinner's 1 hand. For me the Sinner/Berettini option is possible but the question is: did they train together on last day?
