However, I just hate when private television company gets the rights to big events. I mean, ok, let them broadcast football leagues, winter sports WC, Athletics Diamond league etc.. but the Ice Hockey WCh, Football WC/EURO and Olympics should remain exclusively for national Public television. In our forums started as expected "discussions" and majority asking loudly : why we have to pay concession fees when even they can't keep up the Ice Hockey Worlds ? phelps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phelps 6,536 Posted November 8, 2020 #35 Share Posted November 8, 2020 so, despite all the covid troubles, some International Hockey was on stage in this weekend... the top tier tournament was the traditional Karjala Cup in Helsinki (FIN), where Russia swept the field with 3 wins over Finland, Sweden (this game only at the penalty-shootout) and Czech Republic... the Czechs ended up in 2nd place ahead of the Home Team (FIN), Sweden were dead last with only 1 point in the standings (the PSO loss against RUS)... in Krefeld (GER), instead, a "minor edition" of the also traditional Deutschland Cup was played... unfortunately, many of the invited teams had to withdraw because of the covid situation, so finally it was a 3-team contest between Germany, Top Team Peking (basically, Germany B) and Latvia... the "regular season" ended with Germany on top of the standings ahead of Latvia and Top Team Peking... meanwhile today's "final" saw the Latvians taking their revenge over the Germans (after yesterday's loss 2-0), winning the game 3-2 at the overtime and the tournament...

hckošice 13,130 Posted December 17, 2020 Author #40 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Fights and brawls are nothing unusual in this sport...between players obviously.. but fights between head coaches are definitly nothing regular After the yesterday Slovak Extraliga match between the DVTK Miskolc and HK Detva happened this.. The canadian coach of the host team Dave Allison was not really happy with the time out of Detva in the very last seconds of the match and attempt to score one more goal in the last few seconds 4 on 3 power play, Detva was already leading 0-4. So at the end he "apparently" vulgarly insulted Bokroš, this was enough for the experienced former our U20 National Team coach to run after him. They had to be separated by the organizers. All players were like : huh, wtf ? nobody knew what to do, no one no one has seen anything like this in their life phelps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
