Russia lost 2023 world cup rights, in this WC in Finland iihf will decide where next year's tournament will take place. We'll Suisse canceled corona in 2020.hmmm maybe there.

If you wanna get money from hockey you can do it in NHL, AHL, (even now in lover N American leuages as well) then Russia, Sweden, Suisse and Czech Rep . Suisse and Germany (dont get so much) are booked for Canadians. If you wanna be in Suisse, move as kid and go trough junior leuge, or be best and get deal as Viktor Bäckman, Robin Frigren, Aaro Törmänen, Kaspars Daugavins, Ivars Punnenovs, Elvis Mezlikins, Roope Ranta, Philip Åhlström, Linus Klasen, Atte Karppinen and 2 big finish players what names I can not remember. Otherwise its just locals and Canadians.
Since in Hockley and basket now due playing in Russia is banned and players can get sanctions even be used as hostages there, its bad thiunk play there, its be hard to get a work in a hockey. Many good players might get little or even need play in tier 2.

Anyway Luleå recah a final and won firts game at home 4-1 against Färjestad Karlstad. Luleå won 1in 1996 against Frölunda Göteborg, was runner up in 1997 and 2013 against Skellefteå
Kovid-19 year they could win whole, but it was canceled , last year lose in quarters 4-3 in series against Skellefteå. Good Färjestad beat in semis SAIK. Luleå has problems in the head playing whit them, derby. Its all time even whit better players they always lose in the series. Luleå this year finished second in regulars series after Rögle only 3 points below.
They won over Örebro in quarter 4-1 in series, 4-1 Frölunda.
Now big final I saw game, 4-1 in a home, FBK did get goal whit one men sitting on penalty bench, but Luleå woke up and as angry monster fish swollowed them.
Today game 2, I will watch it its hear when Luleå can win, its year, if they take this game its be they wins.

What next if Luleå loose I believe many players will leave, lose apathete, might be relegation next year, but same bad season if they win, few might leave, but then again they might struggle next season to enter in play offs, but loosing this year be more painful.

Joel Lassinantti, Sami Lepistö, Konstantin Komarek, Julius Honka, Erik Gustafsson, Jack Connolly Linus Omark are on the books to other teams, best and key players.
Checks and finns won't stay probably, but can be replaced. You always can get good, cz and slovak players also Latvians from Dinamo Riga (since playing in KHL are banned from latvian state) , Often Luleå players are burn out after looisng final or super bad season .... will be next year to,

Players who still plays in Russia us banned from their national teams informed Finnish and Swedish hockey federations, CA 20 swedes still are there and some key players as Lars Johansson, Adam Reideborn, Klas Dhalbäck, Linus Hultén and 2 finnish stars Miko Lehtonen and Leo Komarov. They seems are banned for ever. Same goes to new players who sign contracts after invasion starts.

Soon WC in Helsinki and Tampere hehehhehe

Same time Luleå lost 2 away games, hard ones, its tide 2-2 in the series. Next game tomorrow and yesterdays game ended late due airplane delay.

But then again HV71 came back to SHL, (top level) 4-2 in series against Björklöven Umeå. Umeå is student town, hard get sponsors, loyal fans and fan base , get some money to buy 2-3 key players what can make wins in such games. Next year 4 teams Björklöven, MoDo Örnsköldsvik, AIK and Djurgården , maybe Mora and Timrå also will try get back to the top, but spot is one and it means win in a series aganst weakest SHL team!!! Thats to problem.
I liked old one 2 weakest and 4 strongest play home and away aganst all and 2 teams go up, it was better, now many play offs, outs and one spot, (but then agans SM Liiga in Finland is close if Mestis winner can be good, they play play in game) But still we can pick up historic teams, and well close leages is not good for smaller teams what tries bites from the pie.

Not happy there be game 7 in Luleå, damn seems Färjestad has not lose a single home game in this play offs, damn won last home game thanks top croud Luleå and goaly Joel Lassinantti, can they manage do it in last game? Its be hard. I am pessimist.

Same time Latvia and Finland said they can organize next WC what was taken away from Russia , Last years WC was in Latvia no spectators because Latvian goevment fucked all up and anti waxer culture in east Europe. Finland has this WC , so far non country has not said they want to organise it, so we will see. I hope Fin and Lv manage it, its be a bit something from stollen year.

So Luleå lost 7th game 3-4 in series against Färjestad, big disappointment even it was weeks ago still . Linus Omark left Luleå to Genève-Servette HC

Next world championships 2023 suppose to be plaid in St. Peterburg, since Russia and Belorussia is banned, Hungary-Slovenia wanted organize it, Hungary withdrawer after knew Russia will be banned(I dont get Hungary , well well, ) and Slovenia can not fix it alone. Latvia and Finland (last 2 hosts) will host it again.

This WC Austria, UK and France showed some skills and good games.
Sweden lost in OT to Canada in 1/4 even lost from 3-0 lead. Maybe once in 10 years Sweden miss semies.

Final was killer Finland 4-3 OT Canada. last 3 years finalist and Finland won 2 times and I can not recall when home nation won? 2 WC + 3 finals in row plus Olympic gold. Really good team, seems Finland reached whit youth and teaching what Sweden did 20 years ago. Can Finland win next one, yes, and how long this team will roll same way. I dont know. Well Finland wont go anywhere but can they be in semies next 10 years. Who knows.

Czech government tells NHL Russian players aren't welcome for Prague series

https://www.cbc.ca/sports/hockey/nhl/nhl-europe-series-russian-players-1.6591412#:~:text=The%20Czech%20Foreign%20Ministry%20told,impact%20of%20the%20attempted%20ban.

Sweden, Finland might follow, and I think Russian players should be banned or suspended in NHL, specially Ovechkin , but its business , event might be canceled, but then again NHL knows how to make money, they can not ignore Europe market so much, where they will se sell broadcast rights to Nicaragua or Tanzania? Cz, Fin and Swe , Ger, Sui are big market to NHL, and 40% best players there come from Europe. I agree whit this deasison ban Russian players to enter. Baltics and Poland has closed their borders even whit Schengen visa.

Latvian league might not be able to finish because many teams complain they can not pay ice rink electric prices what is instantly growing. 300 000 euro per day or more. Its more as few teams dugget.
HC Zemgale from Jelgava starts play in Finnish Mestis league (tier II)
I dont remember where but one swedish arena in south also complain and said they need shut down hmmmm.

Since Russia was banned next WC from Russia was moved to Finland/Latvia , last 2 years organizers. This might be no public band, while in suxer games in Finland ticket costs 70 Euros (game day) , Latvia from 150 , 300 (If Latvia plays) its extreme bad and expensive prices. Organizers might loose again.
2024 will be host in Prague and Ostrava, 2025 Stockholm(new ice area maybe) and Herning (Denmark) 2026 Suisse in Zurich and Friborg (corona year 2019 was canceled)

2027 hmmm Germany, Kazakhstan and Norway
Germany : cities TBA
Norway : Oslo and Trondheim I(new arena on planning)
Kazakhstan : Barys Arena in Astana and the 12,500-seat Almaty Arena in Almaty
For promotion Kaz might be interesting, might involve many Japanese, Korean and Chinese fans, Russians as well. I am not sure how long Russian airspace be close for international travels, I suppose to 2027 Voloda Pipman be dead , but situation. For fans and for me best is Germany, normal games hours, Norway si expenice, but I believe Kazakstan will get a place in name of evolment of hockey in a Asia. (OG in China might work to)

Bobby Hull, hockey’s ‘Golden Jet’ of the ice, dies at 84

You mean hockey's Hitler apologist and wife beater.

Champions league final in Luleå and they manage at home ice loose 3-2 to Tappara Tampere ¨. They won 2 million crones (little pengar for football lol) so economically Luleå save the season but after last years SHL final they almost are on relegation zone, I wont be surprise they will lose few matches, really bad season, winning SHL will take maybe never , I dont see they do it this year even getting in play off still can happen.

So regular season is over in Swedish hockey, play off time

Hockeyettan (tier 3)
Sad that due hard economical situation Kiruna AIF did not finish season and shut down system (might play in Tier 4 or 5 next year)
Kiruna IF still running. To me boat Kiruna teams should be re united under Kiruna HC one name, one banner and so on to make it happen. Legend Börje Salming is from there.
League is divided North, east, west n south. After 2 rounds is divided to 2 leagues north n south
I just check Kiruna, Piteå, Boden and Kalix results , damn its complex they divide and divide untill end when play off is there

Boden vs Borås
Kalix won over Vallentuna Hockey and now Kalix vs Piteå
Basically final winner will be promoted to Tier 2. I like old system where last 2 and fist 2 plaied in a group home and awway . When SHL was Elitserien 2 loosers and 4 winners, 2 went up.

Same still happens in play out (but tier 4 nja)

HockeyAllsvenskan Tier 2
Cool leauge big names. MoDo, Djurgården, Björklöven, Södertälje, AIK even Mora

Only one make up, and its MoDo or Björklöven, I dont see anything other , but it was better as I thought because last 2 -3 years AIK was to relegated. We dont need Hammarby Hockey scenario what plays in regular Stockholm leauge or Tier 5

SHL Tier 1

Luleå 5-4 Oskarshamn now next game away and its play in, to 2 wins , so Luleå now only away
Then comes Växjö Lakers and its be hard but I think Luleå will win it

Play out will be interesting historic team Brynäs vs Malmö , damn I hope Malmö goes out (even they loose they will play best of 7ns whit allsvenskan champion)
Skåne has not even real ice and hoceky is money bought , I dont like that team, I hope Brynäs stays

Oskarshamn, Örebro, Malmö, Rögle can be out I dont care. I dont like those teams. I want Djurgården, Modo, AIK, Björjköven back

Luleå 5-4 Oskarshamn
Oskarshamn 4-3 OT Luleå
Oskarshamn 2-3 OT Luleå

It was just luck for Luleå lose in secon game goal and get OT and lose goal, same tight hard game whit chickens luck....I dont think they even deserved
Luleå vs Växjö lakers
Its be hard game, Växjö was damn good at regular series, even if its best of 7 to 4 wins, it will be hard and heavy fight , My argument is last season Färjestad won they was 8th in regular season and one point plus as Örebro and they did won series. FBK won, I might say this and hope Luleå reads, but my hopes are low in this case, I think Luleå are gooners, gold oportunity might come after 10 years. Reminds me 1996 when they won and like 2004 2 years in a row was almost relegated. Skellefteå was in Tier 2 like 20 years and came back whit Boliden and Skellefteå Kraft money and local school and is leading force whit many gold in a row. Luleå has SSAB money, LKAB , seems not enough buy better players and hold local great quality stars what born and rise in a club,.

So Växjö Lakers had easy run 4-1 in series best of 7 (to those who dont get it you need get 4 wins ) against Skellefteå and won their 4th tittle in 8 years I think. I am not SAIK fan but I dont like south Swedish hockey, in general, I dont think Malmö, Västra Frölunda Goteborg, Växjö, Rögle Ängelholm should exist .

Tier 2 Hockeyallsvenskan play offs was and still is more enjoyable as SHL
All teams Björklöven, AIK, MoDo, Djurgården won 1/4
1/4
Reults in series
MoDo Örnsköldsvik 4-2 AIK Solna
Björklöven Umeå 4-1 Västerås
Mora 4-2 Södertälje (SSK relegated like 15 years ago and never can come up again)
Djurgården 4-0 Karlskoga

Semies
MoDo 4-0 Mora
Björklöven 2-4 Djurgården ( I am Not happy I hoped Umeå team will come up after relegation in early 90's and damn korona killed derby MoDo - Umeå

Final (Still running)
MoDo 3-1 DIF

Imagine AIK-Djurgården in final and winner goes to SHL , gets promotion and its game 7

Anyway what a game, I did stay overtime (no pay) on sunday at my work and watched game from Hovet
It was 4-1 but in end 4-3 DIF coming closer, then Modo had , 3-5, 4-5, , 4-6, 7-4, 7-5,7-6 what a crazy game and not tyoday it means MoDo can win and get promoted after 5-7 seasons away
what a crazy game. I hope Modo does it in Hägglunds Arena

WC is one week old and few good games happens. Riga and Tampere host it since Russia suppose and are banned to 2024 whit partner in war Belorussia .

Basically in group A Germany and Denmark who fights for last play of sport
I hope Hungary will be eliminated.

Group A : Latvia and Slovakia is fighting for last spot of 1/4 final.
Slovenia was eliminated, can not save the day

Biggest surprise Suisse won Canada and has not lost any game and get max point
Latvia won first time over Cz ever

Last games Latvia vs Suisse and Lv needs win to reach play offs unless Slovakia wont lose points in game agents Norway
Lv might miss play offs in many times in row now. Its be hard.

In a crazy game Latvia won first fame against Suisse in top level and in OT. Lv let in and after few minutes equalized when game went to OT

Quarters are here

USA - Czech Rep
Hard to judge somehow after after Covid N American teams are weird. USA looks much better as Canada, but can speed be enough get over Cz defense and tacktics?

Suisse - Germany
I say Suisse wins whole game and thing here, so far best team in a tournament and seems best team they ever had (only that who reached finbal and lost aganst Sweden hmmm many years ago=

Sweden - Latvia
Last games between those 2 was tight, but Sweden will loose, I think flying from Tampere to Riga for one game can tired Sweden and Lv has chance, sold out arena, so I bet Lv wins.

Canada - Finland
Few final repetition and Canada is bad this year, so basically I dont think they can win, Canada take trip to Tampere and Finland dont fly anywhere, so I say Finland wins.

1/4
Suisse 1-3 Germany
Best team to me so far second time in row play offs loose to same team. I was suprise about it actually.

Canada 4-1 Finland
Well well sometimes luck goes out

USA 3-0 Cz
Not surprised it happened

Latvia 3-1 OT Sweden
Once in 10 years Sweden dont reach semmies, since 1990 sometimes 9 times from 10 Sweden plays in semi final. Latvia shown that they can bite hard and one game, it was well at home and menially stronger team at that time won

Semies
USA - Germany
Here can happen all, I believe winner of this duel wins gold if they meat Canada on final

Latvia vs Canada
Latvia show hellowa game in Sochi Olympics when Ted Nollan was coach aganst Canada when Kristers Gudlevskis plaid his best game in his carear, he saved almost all , I even remember that season he in Tampa Bay Lighting mader Montreal Canadians in Stanley Cup Play Offs nervouse. Now he is in MoDo
Latvia lose that game, they had better line up, but now Canada has much worst line up as they can have like team 3 or even 4. But Canada is Canada, I think Latvia can play game and even make some moves, I hope they wins.
Now Artūrs Šilovs shows miracles at ice , goodn golay even Vancouver Canucks owns him, after 1-2 seasons he might be NHL goaly, well he will be, I believe Cunucs will call him on pre season training and even send later to Abbotsford Canucks for some opeing games in AHL, he be beck in NHL:

Manheim and Dusseldorf will host 2027 IIHF world championships:
Next year in Praha and Ostrava (those who dont know where is it is in Czech Rep)
2025 in Sweden(Stockholm ) and Denmark (Henning)
2006 Suisse - Zurich and Fribourg

Now about this
Semies:
USA 3-4 OT Germany
History has been re written in those 2 games

Latvia 2-4 Canada
Latvia plaid well 2 periods, but in 3th Canada can not do in traditional way, they plaid Canadian hockey, did throw from dead zone, rebound on Latvian goally head and puck in, use power play and in end empty net goal , Latvians tock golay out 4 minutes before end but get penalty. Latvians should stop combine in power play specially 5 to 3, if they would use and get 2 goals 5 to 3 and then 5 to 4 (no not result but men power on ice) they would win. Should on goal, fight for rebound and like Canadians did and not even firts time show from dead zone and puck goes in. Unwritten rule iun hockey if you kill 5 to 3 penatly you win the game

Final
Canada 5-2 Germany
Germans did well even get lead but in end Canada show why they are Nr 1 in a hockey.

Latvia 4-3 USA in OT
wow thats the game of the century , Latvia equalized in 3th whit Canadain style goal and in OT goo attack, throw back to defender and should , heavy should . Boat goals goalie somehow lets say if it wont be heavy shout , it could save. History is re written.

Seems Sweden in last 4 WC has crised, we will see next years

2024 WC
I write in order as I think teams will end
Group A (Ostrava) : Sweden, Canada, Latvia, Slovakia / Germany , France, Poland / Kazakstan

Group B (Praha) : Finland, Cz, Suisse, USA / Denmark, Norway , UK / Austria

Its Poland's first appearance in top level since 90's something and I believe they will kick Kazaks ass
I believe UK will kick Austria as well

What a Stenley Cup final Las Vegas Golden Knights 4-1 in series against Florida Panters.
GK is new team, I remember 6 years ago, year when team was created they play well and went to Final and lose against Washington Capitals(I hate Ovechkin so much I cant even describe it).
After 6 years something they manage win whole thing.
One swede won to, William Karlsson

Last year new NHL team born Seattle Kraken and now they in second season plaid well
Western Conference First Round vs. (C1) Colorado Avalanche: Seattle won 4–3
Western Conference Second Round vs. (C2) Dallas Stars: Dallas won 4–3

Swedes in Seattle
Andre Burakovsky
Jesper Froden
Alexander Wennberg

Another interesting character is Dutch player Daniel Sprong , how good duchies are in hockey? hahahhahahhahahahhahahaha

Crisis in Norvegian hockey, federation get minus 9 millions NOK in a budget. Hockey federations suspends few national team existence thus year. Only U20 will play WC in Sweden. Probably adult WC next year, Norway won't be affected

2023–24 Champions Hockey League

Starting from the 2023–24 season the format was changed. The number of teams was reduced from 32 to 24 teams. The group stage was replaced with the regular season in which teams will play six games each, with the teams being ranked in overall standings and 16 best-ranked teams advancing to the playoffs.

In the regular season draw, teams are allocated into four pots featuring six teams each. The seeding depends on the teams’ achievements in their national leagues and the respective league’s standing in the CHL league ranking. Each team was drawn against two teams from each of the other three pots.

In the playoffs, teams will form pairs based on the overall regular season standings.[2]

For the first time since the 2015–16 season, the IIHF Continental Cup winners did not get a wild card spot.[3]

I dont like it I know some group stage games was boring but this is well I dont like, there is no logic here,

R.I.P. Adam Johnson

https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2023/nov/01/adam-johnsons-death-makes-ice-hockey-face-up-to-games-dangers



Such thinks should not happen on ice, freak accident

2023–24 Champions Hockey League

Starting from the 2023–24 season the format was changed. The number of teams was reduced from 32 to 24 teams. The group stage was replaced with the regular season in which teams will play six games each, with the teams being ranked in overall standings and 16 best-ranked teams advancing to the playoffs.

I dont like it actually, I prefer group stage, but then again seems proved, weaker teams was out, stronger in. Only team what should be in play offs is Tappara. HC Košice lats place whit 0 points, I told years ago that Slovak extra leuage degredates. They should re unite whit Cz and play there, but well, because Dragons de Rouen, Aalborg Pirates, Stavenger Oilers even Belfast Giants has 1 8 points 1 less to be in play offs.
But British hockey lkeuage is growing

You can see round of 16 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023%E2%80%9324_Champions_Hockey_League#Round_of_16
Teams what I thought will win won. Unfair thing happened Pelicans Finland Czech Republic Vítkovice Ridera.

The first game between Pelicans and Vítkovice Ridera on 14 November was cancelled due to poor ice conditions at Isku Areena, Lahti, Finland. Vítkovice Ridera was awarded the win per league's sports regulations


Quarter-finals

SC Rapperswil-Jona Lakers (Switzerland) vs Vítkovice Rider (Czceh)
Genève-Servette HC (Switzerland) vs Växjö Lakers (Sweden)
Dynamo Pardubice (Czech Republic( vs Lukko Rauma (Finland
Skellefteå AIK (Swe) vs Färjestad BK /Swe)

I believe Jona Lakers, Servette, Lukko and SAIK will win duels

https://www.timesofisrael.com/lifting-ban-international-hockey-federation-to-let-israel-compete-in-u20-tourney/

Well they banned Israel, and lifter band, ban idea was Pavel Bure , russian who is in IIHF comette , He cant swallow Russia is banned. Sweden, Finland, Latvia, Norway, Denmark, Canada, USA wont agree whit unban Russia, whit out those countries hockey be joke. Skoda wanted stop donating money when Rene Fazel(we know he live putin) did not want ban Championship in Belarus after hevay riots aganst opposition. Only such treth made him change mind. Russia is like spectrer in 007 everywhere, it has pissed me off many years and this is well,. Europe wake up,

2023–24 Champions Hockey League

Since tournament started 2015 Swedish teams has ruled and played in all finals whit out 2 where Finnish teams won)
This year Susse showed muscles and Genève-Servette HC won at home 3-2 against Skellefteå AIK
Checks Vítkovice Ridera and Lukko Rauma from Finland lost in semies.
Congrats to Servette even not that best Suiise team
Zurich Lions, HC Davos, afe much much better.

Play offs in Swden has started

SHL (Tier1)
Play Offs
Luleå well even they did start well season in end sucked and hardly won in OT play in best of 3

Luleå 2-1 series Örebro
Örebro 2–1 Luleå
Luleå 3–0 Örebro HK
Luleå 1–0 OT Örebro HK

Rögle 2-0 Timrå
Rögle BK4–1 Timrå IK
Timrå 2–3 Rögle BK

To me that Timrå after coming back are in play off not relegation zone is good, since its small place close between Sundsvall (close) and Övik

Quarter-finals
Best of 7, it means needs 4 wins

Färjestad BK vs. Rögle BK
I say FBK takes this whit good 2 home games and one away win they will take series and maybe whole thing.

Växjö Lakers vs Luleå HF
I always have been optimist, I say Luleå will loose and next 3-4 years struggle to they will and get in play offs, before they have chance win tittle or fight for it

Skellefteå AIK vs Linköping HC
Even SAIK has not been in top houre kast few seasons to win a tittle, I say they will do this year, to me they are favorites, hard working team what can be pain in the ass at home and once away is what you need .

Frölunda HC vs Leksands IF
Leksands takes this and goes to semies.

Play Outs
HV71 2–4 IK Oskarshamn
HV71 4–0 IK Oskarshamn
Same here best of 7 so its 1-1 . I say HV71 wants it more has better team and reserves, history and traditions to takes this one. They will win next 2 away games

Hockeyallsvenskan (tier 2)

To me this is best level now 4 + 1teams whit big names fights for coming back where they belongs AIK, Djurgårdens, Brynäs and Björklöven (even Södertälje)
Only winner here vs loose in SHL in 7 games will decide.

Play out (who cares)
Östersunds IK 2 -2 Västerviks IK
Its draw 2 series goes to 4 wins

Play Off (best of 7 meaning 4 wins
Brynäs IF 2–1 Nybro Vikings
Brynäs IF 4-1 Nybro Vikings

Brynäs is leading 2 whit nothing and Nybro are small place, small team who came up and show miracle that they even are in play offs, but when big boys as Brynäs what was relegated last year, to me they have best team, best ambitions and financial situation and Gävle can have big team. So they to me are winners in whole series


Sodertalje SK 1–2 OT BIK Karlskoga
A bit surprise, even SSK is nöt as they were in 80's and 90's they want come back, they loose first game, all will decide if they loose next home game. If they win they takes this series, but its all they are capable

AIK 4–1 Mora IK
AIK 4-1 Mora IK

2 games at same result and here AIK won, Mora is small place in Dalarna close to Leksand, to me in so close area 2 teams its hard financially. More always was underdogs in , now to me they always will be Allsvenskan team


Djurgårdens IF 6– 2 IF Björklöven Hovet
Djurgårdens IF 0–0(GAME RUNNING) IF Björklöven

Umeå is student town, best chances was against MoDo in corona year when season was aborterad, if this was 80's it would be BIG game and Stockholm boys in hockey did good away games to Umeå. We will see, I hope I hope Björklöven once comes back, but this year it will be hard.

2 my perditions was OK even SAIK leeds 3-0 but they will take it
I said Luleå will loose, they lost 4-0 in series against Växjö Lakers
Check out Ambush pictures from performance in last game

https://www.facebook.com/Ambushsweden/posts/pfbid02kDNdD7QxdHFwZG87i93j5zv5uvr9dUEUYGYYrfZLRaYWzKifCQshuSfZCN3wudU7l


To lazy search video, maybe later

Predicted well Djurgården and Brynäs games, Sad I wanted to see AIK vs Djurgården in semies in best of 7 it would be crazy ice hell insanity
