yeah, I see. cool. you are absolutely right to be proud of your team, they show great team spirit, and frankly I´m impressed by your skills and your fight in the matches. I think your biggets problem is the lack of experiences, you have still to absorb some lessons how to play those matches, especially you are (it´s only my opinion, so you may be not agrre at all :d) you are too much impatient, you want score much goals early, early as possible, instead your opponents knew how to wait for the best moment and were more patient, for example against France you were great in the start, I see this enthusiasm and how your players wanted to score from each position, in other hand the french were much patient and waited for the right moments and scored the necessary goals. pity for that match, really pitty:( but it´s only with this kind of matches you will reach the needed experiences and next time you should be again some more step better. you definitely have a potential and great team workin. I use many times this word team spirit, teamfighting, because I see it in Germany, Hungary ...in fact in each team here except SVK, we haven´t a TEAM here, they don´t work together, and that´s the main reason why we are so shitty this year, we are not proud of our "team" this year at all...

 

and second thing. I still didn´t understood why Germany and France are in the same group when both are secured to maintain themselves as next years co-hosts. I think Hungary was robbed by this act. you have very though task this year, not only beat more experienced countries but also pass both lets tell "low ranked" already secured teams.

 

and yes the match against Finland was great and this goalie Vay was fantastic. thats true. he is so tall. I didn´t believed he´ll be so good at first see, but during the match, I started to be more and more impressed by his skills and efort.

You are right. We don't have NHL or KHL players. Our best players play in the French league and the EBEL. These leagues improved our players, but the NHL and the KHL are a level higher.

The match against France were really important. Maybe that's why our players tried to win that match too soon.

Our fans have passion, but I miss a little firework! :d

i think Canada-Finland will be the final

 

possible, but I still think that Russia will finally somehow reach the final, also don´t forget Czech Republic they are once again in one of their famous "hockey euphorias" this year:d but for sure those 4 teams will be in the semifinals

    • https://nypost.com/2026/01/31/sports/team-canada-skeleton-coach-joe-cecchini-speaks-out-after-american-katie-uhlaender-manipulation-claim/   Oh the drama....   Cecchini: “I don’t really wanna speak negatively about Katie, but Katie was not on the World Cup team. She wasn’t a top-tier athlete in that program anymore. She was at the end of her career. I would personally would rather race against Katie. She’s not as competitive as the other athletes,” he said. “It’s probably really unfair to say and not really where I want to go with this but that’s where we are with that.”   Uhlaender: “If I were Canada, I would be concerned in how this coach is representing the Olympic values for his country,” Uhlaender told Fox News Digital. “He hurt a whole field of athletes, all with dreams, and this sends the message that they don’t matter unless they are number one. All athletes matter, and we all deserve to compete fairly, with integrity, and respect. He did not respect anyone in that field. “This is not about my resume or how good the athletes were in the race. This is about the fact that he intentionally manipulated the competition to hurt myself and 13 other countries because he felt it necessary to eliminate all possibility. That is against the spirit of sport and not what the Olympic movement represents.”   Isn't it great when other people's dirty laundry is aired?  /sarcasm
    • Idea (that I don't want to mess with right now, but someone else can steal the idea): Could feed the docs from LA28 + Paris 2024 through AI and see what it says.  (Would just take downloading them, perhaps merging them for ease of upload, and passing it through.)
    • If you have time would love to see a sport by sport overview of the changes/new sports
    • Slowly going through the documents.   Looks like canoe slalom qualifiers will be a bit different. More kayak cross quotas which will let nations to essentially qualify two kayakers.
    • How about we choose either Rome or Milano  I hate this timeline we have entered of multiple host cities / countries. The football World Cup became ludicrous, we don't need the Olympics to join them. At least not more than they already are.
    • Znali se postupak za mješovito složeni luk, 12 parova  
    • FIBA World Cup Qualifier March P.R.   This is my proposed Young Guns Developmental Roster. The FIBA World Cup Qualifier in P.R. is a throwaway tour- nament for Team USA after the Gold Medal Game debacle. This is the perfect environment to test the Young Guns to see who has it, who does not, and who needs more devel- opment. The 2026 FIBA World Cup in Berlin is the tuneup for 2028 in L.A. The game against Spain will answer many questions.   Betts     Center age: 22 Boston  Center age: 24 Brink     SF, F   age: 24 Stewart  F, PF  age: 32 Kiki Iriafen F     age: 22 Jackson SF       age: 24 Howard  SF, SG age: 26 CC         PG       age: 24 Paige     SG       age: 24 Young    SG, PG age: 28 Plum      SG, PG age: 32 Citron    SG         age: 22
    • I'm also reminded as I know Canadians are painfully aware that if figures hadn't been a part of the 1984 Olympics, then Brian Orser would have won gold.  Hamilton could have finished 4th in the free skate that year and still beat Orser who finished 7th in the figures
    • claimed their 3rd European title after beating 34-27  First title since 2012  got the bronze after beating   34-33   is the best team in the world by far 👏👏👏
