on the other side, last night game #4 of the Calder Cup finals was also played... and the Texas Stars won 3-2 at home against the Toronto Marlies, taking the series to a 2-2 tie... game #5 is scheduled for Saturday night (8 p.m. ET, 2 a.m. CET), always in Cedar Park, TX, home of the Stars...

justice is done! finally, the greatest player ever without the cup...is no longer "without"... another brave effort from the Vegas Golden Knight last night in game #5 couldn't stop destiny...and another great game by Ovi and his Caps finally gave them the greatest success of their career... as I always said, I'm very, very happy of this Caps win... but hopefully, next year I want my Kings back on top of the league...

not at all... it's only what those idiots of NADO Italia asked for them (despite not having a single element of proof)...even the audition in front of the sports authorities has taken place yet... and this just shows how they are not a reliable institution, but only a political weapon in the hands of someone playing their game to cover Italy and Italian sport with mud... I remember everybody reading this thread that a trial court already sentenced that Magnini does not have anything to cope with facts and people involved in it... and in my own world, if a real, serious Court states that someone is NOT guilty of anything, it won't be a bunch of idiots seeking for fame or whatever they seek to have any authority nor credibility to change the truth (which is NOT what they say)...

what a farce! women's boxing now can really say that they're "at the same level of men's"... yeah...in terms of corruption, for sure... one more time...let's get rid of this sh*t as quick as possible...

Nice story (actually, a great story) surrounding the NHL world... NHL referee qualifies to play in U.S. Open golf championship... https://www.nhl.com/news/nhl-referee-qualifies-to-play-in-us-open-golf-championship/c-298951682

@Dunadan already answered to that... probably it is...I just did Copy & paste that sentence from EUBC's website... p.s. by the way, the +81kg class has only 6 starters, which means that the first 2 seeded fighters (Sennur Demir, TUR & Kristina Tkacheva, RUS) are already through to the semifinals and have a guaranteed medal before the competition actually starts...

The most important thing about this tournament (because it's the first step towards, maybe, the Tokyo Olympics)... "The top ten classified of 5 categories (kg. 48, 57, 60, 69 and 75) will get a pass to the participation to the 2019 European Championships set at Minsk, Belarus."

The Toronto Marlies regain the lead in the Calder Cup finals, after a 2-1 victory on the ice of the Texas Stars in game #3... It all happened in the 2nd period, when Texas took the early lead, but, for the 3rd time in 3 games in this series, the team allowing the first goal of the game came back and turn things around... game #4 is scheduled for Thursday night (8 p.m. ET, 2 a.m. CET...exactly at the same time of the NHL finals game #5...someone in the AHL schedule commission must be a real genius )... Game #3 Highlights

ma qui siamo al delirio puro...se Filippo è stato assolto con formula piena (per NON aver commesso il fatto...non per qualche cavillo da maneggione delle aule giudiziarie), come ca**o possono anche solo pensare di incriminarlo per gli stessi "reati" questi qua? ma chi si credono di essere? degli dei superiori alla giustizia ordinaria? secondo me, una condanna sarebbe l'ulteriore conferma che NADO Italia sono solo una banda di politicanti, il braccio armato di qualcuno che vive per infangare l'Italia e lo sport Italiano... dopo il caso Schwazer-bis, per me l'antidoping Italiano ha perso per sempre ogni minima forma di credibilità...e non sarà certo questa vicenda a farmi cambiare idea...

the series is heading back to Vegas, but the Cup is definitely heading to Washington... last night, despite a stormy start by the Golden Knights, it soone became a one-team show, with the Caps taking a comfortable lead quite early and dominating avery aspect of the game... then they fell asleep for a while mid 3rd period and Vegas shortened the distance to -2, but WSH quickly regained their focus and newly increased their margin, with Vegas that tried to play dirty in the final minutes, but the Caps didn't bite on the hook and easily took the victory home avoiding any major problem... game #5 is scheduled for Thursday night (8.20 p.m. ET, 2.20 a.m. CET)...and I expect a jump start and some rough play from the Golden Knights...but I hope the Caps would be ready for that and finally lift the Cup...

Beside the NHL Stanley Cup Finals, also the "second tier" league of North American Hockey has its final series underway... The first couple of games of the AHL Calder Cup Finals (best-of-7, as usual), in fact, have been played last Saturday and Sunday in Toronto... in game #1, the home team, the Toronto Marlies (Toronto Maple Leafs' farm team) defeated the Texas Stars (Dallas Stars' farm team) by a score of 6-5 in a quite messy game, with a crazy 3rd period... yesterday, in game #2, both teams played definitely better and a more "traditional" hockey game, but this time were the Texas Stars to come home with the victory (2-1 the final score in favor of the Texans)... now the series heads back to Texas for the next 3 games...and game #3 is scheduled for Tuesday night (8 p.m. ET, 2 a.m. CET)... all you need to know about the AHL and the Calder Cup here: https://theahl.com/

more on that... Belmont Stakes are the 3rd of the 3 races of the well known US Triple Crown... and this year, for the 22nd time, we have a horse that won the first 2 "chapters" (Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes): his name is Justify but the Belmont Stakes are longer and quite different from the other 2 races, so the Triple was completed only 12 times, the last one being the 2015 triumph by American Pharoah (and before him, the last TC hero was Affirmed in 1978)... all you need to know on the Triple Crown races, it's on this website: http://www.triplecrownraces.com/

Russian power at its finest... Ovi and Kutz dominated the game from start to finish and, despite Holtby's silly mistake, Vegas couldn't do anything to stop the red & blue machine from the US Capital... now WSH are only 2 wins away from the dreamy end of this season... go Ovi, go Caps!

well, the Slovenian referee got really close last night... she literally invented a few Kyong-ho against Jade, so to put her with 9 and still almost a minute to go...only her immense class avoided a shameful ending... and also the semifinal between Mandic and the Korean girl almost ended in a farce, when the judges gave the Korean 2 points well after the central ref called a stop and a kyong-ho against the Korean (which was then also cancelled by the jury after the video replay)...only a miracolous kick at the last second saved the Serbian and allowed her to reach the final (but then was quite empty on a mental level after that semifinal and lost without really fight against the Polish girl)... everytime I watch TKD, it's always the same story like in Boxing...I can't stand those judges anymore...

after a disastrous start of the season in the discipline where some good results were expected (Speed), in the least expected discipline, Bouldering, it came the most improbable first Italian success of 2018 thanks to Gabriele Moroni, who's been able to beat the great Japanese "Armada" at their home event... well done, man! on the women's side, nothing new in the headlines...the invincible duo (Noguchi, then Nonaka) dominated the field also in their home competition...will someone stop those 2, sooner or later?
