Canoeing Slalom. Alexander Slafkovský never won an Olympic medal, because he never did qualify to the games losing 4 times to Michal Martikán and twice to Matej Beňuš in the internal qualification since 2008 to 2024 Olympics only because this idiotic rule of 1 boat per nation..
 
Slafkovský is a multiple world champion, European Champion, World Cup winner etc etc etc... but never was and will never be an Olympian

Congrats !  and welcome to the Dark side
 
sincere condolences   That´s however a very brave decision which will imply a lot of sufferance, sorrowfull frustrations and neverending disappointements, but hey once in a loooong period time when there is a sporting success somewhere, the feeling of joy and pride is incalculable I promise you
 
Yeah, not many official info being published into the public, but, I guess her club did not want to release her as her Bishop Kearney is going to play the American Hockey Chamipionship in a couple of days...

Slaf played last night his last match as a teenager he´ll turn 20 tomorrow.
 
he ended his teenager career by extending his own Montreal Canadiens record of longest point streak by a teenager in the franchise history to 9 consecutive matches and with scoring his 41st point this season by extending his own Montreal Canadiens franchise record of top point scorer teenager of the Habs in one season.
 
 
and the most funny stat, since McKinnon did not get a point last night, believe it or not, but Slaf has now currently the THE LONGEST ACTIVE POINT STREAK IN THE NHL

For EURO it is rather negative sum.
 
Only 2 out of 7 (well, 3 if you count neutral venue for as home...)
 
Home Final qualified
EURO 2020 & EURO 2024 (home but neutral venue lol)* &
 
Away Final qualified
EURO 2020 & & EURO 2024
 
 
However for World Cup this system was implemented only once for 2022 and funnily enough only home teams won the play-off final
&

Never in my worst nightmares would have believe I will experience something like this...
 
this is a black day for Slovak sport
 
officially relegated to Division I B.
 
Poor Nela Lopušanová, imagine that, the girl who was not allowed to play this year yet by IIHF, will now lose 2 years before thinking about playing among the elite because yes, if Nela played here, we would be probably already celebrating the promotion into the top division... without Nela we are dropping to (without disrespect to other participants there) the absolute bottom...yes, this big is the impact of Lopušanová for our womens hockey, and she is barely 15 ! ...but, well, it happened, what happened, what can we do, next year "C" level. well, at least Nela will very likely explode her individual stats in this I.B. next year, prepare for some 8-10 points per match..
 
 
 
Women's WCh: Total (blamage) embarrassment is completed. Slovak women's hockey players were relegated to an even lower category
 

 
 
 
 
They wanted to advance to the Top Division, they were relegated to the 3rd tier. Slovakian women's hockey players failed completely at the World Champs

6 months to go, and still only 13 quotas
 
 
No worries Slovak sport is doing fine, no worries, they say...
 

People will probably laugh, but If I can bet on someone to be the real surprise of this euro I will definitely put my leaky penny on Austria.
 
Mark my words. 28th March 2024
 
I saw them and what they did against us last week, yeah, I know, it was only Slovakia, but still it was one dominant effort I do not remember for a long time, seriously I did not see such play even from in both our qualifying games, They were just superb and ate us alive in every sample of game, only a miracle helped us to finish 0-2.
 
And last night they even demolished 6-1 (and still played without injured duo Alaba, Arnautovic)
 
They have a bunch of very very good players and they play like a hell of a team. One solid group led by a great calm and competent coach. I was and am seriously impressed by what they offered on the pitch.
 
and by that I repeat, I wouldn´t be surprised at all if Austria shocks the world this summer and maybe goes all the way to even who knows...medal fights

This should be a candidate for Puskas award for best own goals this year along with Disasi Goal in Chelsea vs Leicster City in Fa Cup 
 
 
 

One quite ridiculous own goal in the 15th second of the match between and   scored by Latvian Marcis Oss

Yeah, total disaster...
 
Joj TV group (having Joj šport) and Markíza Tv group the main commercial TV networks companies in the country are leading a war against czech TV channels whom Slovak viewers watch more than slovak channels (it started mainly because of expensive movies and TV shows which people intended to watch on czech TVs - including me, I do not remember last time I watched a movie or Tv serie on slovak chennel lol, arguing they do not have the rights to show it in Slovakia while Slovak channels have to pay for the rights and none watch them but rather watch them on czech Tv channels...)
 
This led to close some czech TV channels in Slovakia... but,
 
then came Joj group which get the TV rights for the Ice Hockey Worlds and you know the issue they are furious people will instead watch the hockey worlds on Czech Sport Tv than on Joj šport which argue by paying a lot of money for these rights in Slovakia, while ČT Sport does not have the rights to broadcast in this country at all and blah blah blah... so they managed to convince sadly the Czech public TV to cut their sport channel for Slovakia...
 
Yep, dumb and sad. People are generally extremely angry and pissed, many now are deliberately boycotting Joj and Markíza channels, but we can  not do anything, sadly Czech Sport TV is gone

Marek Rodák and the moment of his life 
 
 
 
 

@hckošice I'm furious! and heavily depressed, too 
 
why those idiots of CT decided to close CT Sport down for all the Slovak providers?   
 
and now, how can I watch the Czech Extraliga (and many more events I used to watch on that channel)???   

For those, who missed farewell of our very own Peter Prevc. 💙💚
 
It was so emotional, I was there, the best part was, when singer Luka Sešek sang "Con te Partiro / Time to Say Goodbye", cover from Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman. 
 
This was Peter's only wish, other parts of ceremony were a bit of surprise even to him. 😊😇
 
Hvala Peter / Thank you for all wonderful moments.
 
 

Just arrived at the game! 


I’m fucking hyped. This is going to be a good one. 

Going to my first ever NHL game today, as my Vancouver Canucks take on the Los Angeles Kings! 
 
Fingers crossed the Canucks can clinch their spot in the playoffs. 
 
I’ll share some pictures when I get back
