Fuck yeah, rugby and football next please
is the war still on or what?
NATObros what the FUCK is our response...?
Glad this defensive war they have been fighting ever since ukraine started shelling their border cities in 2013 has been justified by the IIHF.
>>158418013Enjoy playing with Belarus, US, and uhhhh... Kazakhstan?
>>158418013This is good because it probably means no WW3. I am too big of an asset in the shitposting universe to just be thrown out to the front lines.
Germany can just deny them the visas, but they are cuckolds so they probably won't.
>>158418101if they bump ukraine out of last spot then they're in your group
>>158418013Nice
>>158418013
>>158418125I'm hoping for boycots, but then again, I'm sure the organisations are cucked and money-strapped enough to not go through with them.
>>158418072>has been justified by the IIHF.But that's not what happened.CAS shot down the IIHF decision to ban Russia, and IIHF isn't pleased.https://www.iihf.com/en/news/76707/iihf_statement_on_cas_decision
AHAHAHAHAHA the Ukies are FUCKEDRussia will get Odessa, too, in any peace settlement
>>158418139maybe i'm misreading you, but it seems like you don't like russia? why would you not want to play and beat them then?
Good, Canada sucks at hockey now and will only get worse. We need a renewed rivalry with Russia to make things interesting again.
>>158418662>maybe i'm misreading youhave you seen his flag? Polacks, baltoids and fingolians hate russia
>>158418013Good, they suck at everything except MMA and hockey, so it's good to have them back. In the other sports, nobody cares
i am sure hfboards is taking this well and not having a meltdown
Nice. Can't wait for their plane to get droned in a false flag attack and Germany gets lit up by Moscow.Are PM recommended we stock up for 3 days, it'd be a shame if those extra tins of beans went to waste.
>>158418768meanwhile SEAmonkeys living in france of all places love it because it's nafo's fault they can't get laid or something
Welcome back Russia
>>158418830They didn't wear le heckin' masks?!
>>158418814Case in point. Calm down you're gonna pop a vein
considering they fell down the ranking are they starting in like League C or whatever it is called? Playing against New Zealand and Hong Kong before getting promoted to the top league? That would be so funny.
Funny how me stating that baltoids, polacks and fingolians hate russia immediately triggered a polack chimp out. I stated a fact and he took it as an insult, spiritually brown forever and ever
Funny how the monkey above won't post its hand because it's literally brown
It sucks for athletes but the fact is that boycotts like this show the entire world and especially Russians that they are in the wrong. Putin needs to fuck off before the world will accept Russians on the world stage again and that change has to come from within.
>>158418882Russia is first in the IIHF ranking buddy
>>158418907but why? They should lose their ranking for not playing in tournaments.
>>158418907>do nothing>wincollective west played like a fiddle
>>158418907they shouldn't tho
Have you ever asked a boomer exactly why we're supposed to hate Russia?
>>158418906You are such a bitch lol, yeah lets ban them from sports that will teach themThere are like 50 wars technically going on no one gives a fuck
>>158418978there's a difference between a 'regular' conflict and a literal invasion by a maniacal dictator. Literally nobody started this war or did anything provocative except for Putin. Suck more Putin cock bitch lol
>>158418830showing weak westoids who's in charge>>158418911iihf gave them points as if they had played.no, really, look it up.
>>158418997>10 green energy tokens have been deposited into your EU account
>>158418997Oh so ukraine your neighbour literally going nato was nothing?
>>158419005>10 us dollars have been deposited into your paypal
How good is Slovakia now
>>158419008>noooo an independent country can't decide who it will ally with
>>158418013Of course it happens when Germany is the host, now everyone will piss themselves even more over this issueGenerally speaking, I don't think any country should be banned from sports competitions
>>158419067Oh they did look what i got them, they could done it way smarter
>>158419069probably the only country other than serbia where there anthem wont get booed
Russia in 4 nations? Based
>>158419069I think it’s pretty fair game when dickwavers often use sports to maintain their international image
>>158419008Countries with unresolved border conflicts literally cannot join NATO, dumb simio
>>158419101I know the concept of an independent state may seem incomprehensible to a thirdie, but do try your best to understand
Finally some good competition Fins and Swedes are ass only the US is good. Plus the seethe the is also nice i love EU tears.
>>158419296BRICS alliance holding up
>>158418013They should never have been banned.
This seems unlikely considering it's hosted in Germany and the security threat of allowing the Russian government to send random people with the team

>>158418997I hate you fucking yapping war mongering hohol cowards that hide in civilized countries and leech welfare the most.Go home, sing up for the military and fight you fucking coward or shut the fuck up.
Russia and Belarus are still banned by the Professional Disc Golf Association however so don't worry, those Ruskies are still being hit where it hurts.
Not thrilled that this drama will take place on our soil, but you don't have to be a Putler-loving Z warmonger slave chud to say Russia belongs in ice hockey tournaments and cannot be excluded from sports forever, especially not on political grounds
>>158421335>Professional Disc Golf>PROFESSIONAL disc golfincredible
Why do chuds love russia while at the same they despise china
good. Russia are one of the top nations in hockey and them not being allowed to play in international competitions actively made said competitions worse.
>>158418997how many international boycotts were instigated against the USSR during the cold war, or against the US after Iraq?
>>158421304>cowardly cow fucker rich off of Nazi gold
>>158418057Seething and dilating I would imagine.
>>158418023>>158418057>>158418203>>158418978>>158419008These posters are brown.Only shitskins, muslims and some leftists support Russia.
>>158418978why were they so buttblasted when they couldn't participate if it doesn't matter?
>>158418013Good makes national hockey more interesting.
>>158418013USA is allowed to play too so what's the issue? Tyrannical superpowers gonna tyranny.
This is wrong. Their country is murdering Ukrainians and letting their teams play let’s them think it’s okay.
>>158421346If Israel are allowed to play
>>158422757This.USA was not banned from the 2004 Olympics and 2006 World Cup after invading Iraq, and we just bombed Iran with no remorse and will still compete in all international competition. So if the USA can, why not Russia?
>>158418125>>158418139idk which would be better, just boycott the thing or humiliate russia on the ice>>158418768>gee I wonder why the countries who know them the best hate them the most
>>158422937>Iraq>IranYou know why
>Ukraine will never has Kherson again>Ukraine will never has Donbass again>Ukraine will never has Crimea againWhat a positive historical development, perhaps we can work towards a ceasefire so that Ukraine can maintain more than 20% of it's population when the war ends.
>>158423200>will never hasAre you the Brazilian UberEats driver?
>>158422937putin supposedly plays hockey most mornings and has his own secret rink at his palacebush didn't like soccer so it wouldn't affect him much
nobody gives a shit about the ukraineit's just a little game the trans-atlantic power structure is playing with the russiansif you're emotionally invested in this you've been psyopped and are probably retardedwebm related, it's a ukrainian athlete
Oh boy, this will be incredibly awkward for when we host the World Juniors. Is Russia going to take the place of Norway (the promoted team from last time)? Are there going to be 11 teams, or maybe up it to 12 to keep balance? Are there going to be boycotts?
>>158423276>if you're emotionally invested in this you've been psyopped and are probably retarded>game the trans-atlantic power structure is playing with the russians
>>158422207>how many international boycotts were instigated against the USSR during the cold warSeveral, like the 1980 Olympic boycott
>>158422937>USA was not banned from the 2004 Olympics and 2006 World Cup after invading Iraq, aUSA was smart enough not to do it alone.>In April 2003, Angola, Tonga and Ukraine were included in the list, bringing the number of allied nations to 49 (including the United States).Banning 50 countries from international sport events would look dumb.
>>158423200Why are the Irish always so retarded?
>>158423276>the ukrainekys n
>>158418013Good. Politics have no place in sports.
>>158422937>IraqDictatorship that murdered its own citizens>IranDictatorship that is murdering its own citizens
>>158422937The US literally abducted the president of another country and nothing happened. You guys have Narrenfreiheit.
>>158426864That "president" was never elected.
Fuck you sweden politics shouldnt matter in sports, and if they do it should be an insta ban for every war and you would have to ban like 50 countrys
>>158426971If Russia uses sport as a political propaganda then it's okay to ban them for political reason as well
>>158418013Letting them straight back into the top tier would be way too controversial, especially now that the Ukrainians themselves are in it.They will either get to play against thirdie amateurs for the next couple of years or not at all.
>>158418029Defense analysts and geopolitical observers increasingly compare the trajectory of the war to a multi-decade standoff—similar to the Korean Peninsula—rather than a neat political resolution>>158418057Is Ukraine joining NATO? That's a hard no from Russia. Russia's military got embarrassed so they'll work to get stronger. As for the sports ban, it's been a 5 year punishment which would be crazy to have to endure if it was your favorite team. Not even North Korea got banned forever, their women soccer team will be one of the best in the women World Cup this summer. Iran? They were in the World Cup last summer. Israel? They run the United States and hence the world
>>158418013Hoholsisters.... we've lost.
>>158430907They lost like two years ago at latest; but no one is ready to admit it yet. Russia isn’t even that strong, but Europe is hilariously weak and the US couldn’t be bothered enough (they still carried). But we will pretend everything is going as plan forever
>>158426650They were also smart enough to not do it to an immediate neighbor that might be part of your same continental confederation. FIFA doesn’t directly ban Russia, UEFA does it for invading a member of UEFA.
>>158419069>I don't think any country should be banned from sports competitionsnot even dopers and cheaters? slabbo puccia
Good. America has been over-confident since they've been winning major tournaments so I wonder what their excuse will be when they start losing agian
>world juniors 2027 >taking place in Alberta, canada>canada has one of the highest populations of ukranians outside of Ukraine>350k ukranians live in Alberta >russia is going to be there That sounds like a good idea.

>>158442551>tfw no milley
>>158421304good post
I’m amazed the Russians can still find enough men with two legs to even send a team. Certainly all their top athletes will have been shot, mutilated or raped by other Russian soldiers, and will not be in a position to win an ice hockey match.
But what about heckin evil war criminal putler?!?Slava Ukrainiani!!!
>>158418997thousands of ethnic Russians died from 2014 onwards in the Donbass, the Odessa pogrom happened, etc.A bunch of Nationalists from Galicia started this.If Italy started killing people in south Tyrol, Austria and Germany would have a right to stop this as well.
>>158430966Year 5 of the 3 day special military operation... Aaaany d-day now Kiev will fall and Russia will be a s-superpower again

>>158444238I've been told that in a matter of two weeks Europe will freeze to death.
>>158444238We do. It’s very embarrassing but our governments were forced to admit it after Donald Trump brought it up once after somebody questioned his resolve to defeat the Russians.
>>158418013Good. We need a new dedicated bad guy now that Canada has turned into shit
>>158418013sports ban has to be the most faggy form of protest that has ever been invented.
>>158446464And I say this fully knowing there are some peruvian retards who got scammed into being recruited as mercenaries on the first line for the ruskies.
>>158444238not as much as the US
>>158422298And only troons and globohomos support ukraine. They really made 100% sure that we lose no matter which side wins
>>158418013Good, keep politics out of sports.
>>158422298Russia's main ally is Belarus, which is 100% white.And Russia is literally the biggest country in Europe, even if you exclude Siberia.
>>158418013now ban jews from hockey
they will be playing 3 country tournament, it's gonna be goodhonestly i think it will be good to have some break from annual skoda cup
Unless you cheat in a sportive frame, like via doping or other corruption affairs, you shouldn't be banned from sports. Ice hockey in particular is a sport that really needs the few actual top nations it has, it's too thin in quality otherwiseThis entire war has greatly exposed everyone involved. Russia isn't particularly strong, but Europe is hilariously weak. Our politicians are retarded. As a European (speaking purely ontologically), you kind of have to side with Ukraine despite the cuckfest it is and despite how objectively evil the EU is. As opposed to the Israel thing, this somewhat matters to us
>>158457910Last I checked, Russians are Europeans themselves.They are Slavs, pretty much genetically same as Ukrainians.
>>158461406Which Russians? Vast swathes of 'Russia' aren't even remotely close to Europe, some of which are full of ethnic Chinese people, Korean people, Georgian people, etc. because they used to be part of those countries.
i dont see the point of locking them outthe nazis and israel are allowed to play in the olympics
>>158461523Russia makes up 40% of Europe, nigga. Are you dumb?And 80% of their population lives in Europe
>>158461523I am obviously talking about Ethnic Russians, not conquered shitskins.Ethnic Russians are 100% Europeans.
>>158461933>largest country in the world makes up 40% of the smallest continentOkay... and how much of Russia is outside of Europe?>And 80% of their population lives in EuropeYeah in Finland, Estonia, Germany, Switzerland, lmao.>>158461987And what percentage of "Russians" are ethnically Russian and not the conquered shitskins?
>>158462030Siberia is in Asia.And even Siberia is mostly populated by Slavs/European settlers, so culturally European.
>>158462059You've now dodged/deflected the question 3 times, likely because you already know the answer but are trying to avoid it.
>>158462030Er, you do know Siberia is mostly uninhabitable right? It never had a large native population.
>>158462084Let me guess, you're an Ukrainian living in Canada who can't cope with the fact that Russians and Ukrainians are culturally and genetically identical
>>158462030>outside of Europe?Who cares?, Russians are native to Europe, not Siberia.
>>158418999..right. Just two more weeks til that war is wrapped up right? lmao
>>158462086Both of those apply to Canada, what's your point?>>158462107>Let me guess, you're an Ukrainian living in CanadaNo, not Russian or any other kind of slav, jeet, chang, etc. either.Sorry to disappoint.>>158462141Another deflection.
>>158423200I really dont understand the hate this country gets, the only fuckin thing ukraine is known for is cute whores and way too much illegal porn
>>158462107nta but I'm dating a Russian woman that recognizes her country and her people are African-tier despite allegedly being "European"As an aside I myself recognize Australians are the Russians of the Commonwealth
If I meet a whore from st petersberg, is that a rich area of russia or can the brokies live there too?
>>158462196Yeah, expect Canada doesn't have any land in Europe, while Russia is the biggest country in Europe
>>158462219European doesn't mean prosperous.Countries like Ukraine, Belarus, Moldova are Africa tier. Ukraine was a poor shithole even before the war.
>expectShould have known it was an illiterate thirdie I was responding to.Now I feel dirty.
>>158462268That's cool and all but Turkey is more European than Russian and Turkey is decidedly not Europe. The words Europe and European are essentially synonymous with prosperity, as in that's where you want to be if you're a living, breathing, thinking organism on the planet Earth.There are little to no organisms that think in Russia.
>>158418013Wow!!! Welcome back to the human family, Russia!!! Everyone is so happy that things are on the mend
>>158462330>Europe and European are essentially synonymous with prosperity, as in that's where you want to be if you're a living, breathing, thinking organism on the planet Earth.Europe is a third wold dumpster
>>158462330>>158462835A shiny museum isn't a prosperous continent shiny things don't mean prosperityProsperity is opportunity. Europe is a third world backwater riding a post world war 2 American windfall Sweet summer child.
>>158462330>Europe and European are essentially synonymous with prosperitykek, spoken like someone who has at best spent some vacation time here
>>158462877>>158462921nta but these replies reek of people who've never been outside of Europe either
>>158462835Double posting is a bit desperate plus you're a Croat >>158462921And where the fuck else would you like to live?
>>158462268>the worst parts of europe are the parts that have been dominated by russia and turkey
>>158462930>>158462940it's not as bad as the croat makes it out to bei have been outside of europe plenty of times and yes it's worlds better than most other countries/continents, but to say it's prospering would be a lie in my opinion I think europe is stagnating
>>158463082mm okay now I get more what you meant by that>I think europe is stagnatingYeah that's fair, kinda peaked in the 90's.
>>158461406I was talking about "Europe" in the political sense, and that excludes Russia. But yes, Russia is still Europe and we'd be off better if that had real political effects as well>>158461523Geography should at best be secondary when deciding what is European, for starters since geographical definition of Europe's boundaries have changed many times in the past. The ancient Greeks said the river Don was the border, for example. If European civilization hadn't achieved world dominance, there would be no real definition of Europe - it would just be seen as a large peninsular extension of AsiaRussians are Slavs, Slavs are Europeans. If Russians aren't Europeans, neither are Ukrainians, and then we'd have to ask questions about Poles and Czechs and Croats as wellTurks are ethnically total mutts, mostly of Greeks. They could pass as Europeans in that sense, and they have the luck of sitting on land that is not only hard to geographically keep apart from Europe, but also used to be the heartland of a great European empire of old: Byzantium. But they are a people that does fit within the European cultural frame, and thus most people do not see them as Europeans, also since Turks will deny their ethnic mutt status at any costLikewise, the white majorities of Canada, the US, Australia, and New Zealand are Europeans. Their countries follow basic European systems, their culture is compatible. These countries are not in Europe, but they still belong together at the end of the day
>>158461523France and England are 70% white, that doesn't mean ethnic French and English aren't Europeans.
>>158463311*Turks are a people that does not fit within the European cultural frameand* Europe would just be seen as a rather small peninsular extension of Asia>>158463082Stagnating sounds very flattering for some countries, especially the big ones
>>158463375yes it's been stagnating since 2010 by 2035 all baby boomers should be in the retirement systemhow do you finance the biggest age group with such a low birthrate... everyone knows the solution, but not everybody likes it
>>158463082Newsflash asshole, North America is stagnating too. I ask you again where the fuck else would you like to live and so help me God if you say Japan I will curb stomp you
>>158463504>everyone knows the solution, but not everybody likes itIs it the final kind?
>>158463549i don't know about you, but my plan is to save up enough money and retire early in south america lol>>158463550could be considered as the final kindreplace the birthrate with net immigration
>>158463629I will fucking curb stomp you holy fuck
>>158463638go on, tell me the solution to the problem i'm not working till the age 70 to get my pensionthe french just had a huge riot about the government wanting to spend less on education, i can't wait to see the riots once talk about raising retirement age start
>>158463785nta but you'll be lucky if you make it to your 70's living in South America, it's a continent full of failed states, it's Africa with slightly fewer black people, it's SEA but more violent.
Growing up in Detroit during the 90s always made me have a soft spot for Russians... Especially hearing their anti- communist stories too. Its really gay hearing everyone hate on Russians cause of Ukraine bullshit when we've done retarded shit in the middle east for 20 years
>>158463785I dont know about you but here in America the horse shit I have to deal with is taxes. I get 6-700 dollars taken out of my paychecks, not including my healthcare and union costs. Gas is expensive? Groceries? Maybe I need new tires on my car? All that would be no problem if I wasnt taxed out my ass. And yet poor single mothers get their rent and healthcare for free and the roads are worse than they were when I turned 16 20 years ago.
>>158463871You're both shitheaps that ruin the globe for the rest of us, that's why you feel solidarity with them
>>158463947Your country is pathetic, you all could live like kings with your natural resource reserves but acting like good little girls and taxing the shit out of everything has the mass majority of your tiny population living like its the 19th century, I atleast own my own condo and have a stock portfolio as a regular ass middle class nobody. Its no wonder nobody wants to play or live in Canada because all of you are pretentiously trying to one up eachother as the biggest pussies on Earth
>>158463838i'm not delusional, but as I currently see it-rich and retired in south america by 60 (at worst)-still working at 60 in Switzerland, state pension kicks in at age 65 (for now)>>158463913bro, taxes are low here depending on where you liveit's the only reason I can see myself retiring so early in south americaask a german how much of his gross pay is taxed lolI hit the jackpot being born here, but i'm not fucking working till my death
>>158463998Yeah yeah shitbag why don't you go open that strait you keep insisting is either open or closed and fulfill your golem obligations so I can get back to heating my hour for a reasonable amount of script, thanksFucking unbelievable retard
>>158464011Regardless of all that, what is the possibility you can live on 40 acers in a 2,500 sq ft home in your own country? Its still somewhat possible here in Michigan but its being squeezed out with bullshit red tape. My cousins wife is from the Czech Republic and her parents cried when they saw her home in Hillsdale. They grew up under communism and the concept is literally alien to them.>>158464015Your entire country's population is halved by Florida alone. And yet you suffer a higher cost of living than virtually every single state in USA minus NYC and California. You need to shut the fuck up.
>>158464064What does your population size have to do with being a belligerent rogue state controlled by a foreign country?
>>158418029Globohomo stopped caring about jewkraine because they want russia to export petrol again
>>158464144Funny to call Ukraine jewkraine when Russia is the one that launched a war with a stated intention to "denazify" a country because it was being run by a neo Nazi junta.
>>158464113You tell me? The greatest accomplishment your government has been bragging about is shutting down oil production, saving your peat moss, and selling Chinese goods.
>>158464155Zalensky is what? A hook nose jew or an apostolic christian?
>>158423024Such few words can say so much
>>158464064>Its still somewhat possible hereI agree, anyone I talk with a braincell here knows the ''possibilities'' are huge in USA. But getting ''in'' is another.South america is easier and cheaper in that regard and I know my money will carry me much further there than the USAIn any case, all I know is that I need money and in time I'll know when, how or where to go.
>>158464171And let's take a look at what's been accomplished by your government in 2 years annnnnd
>>158464188I can agree with you there, if I liquidated everything I could have $500,000 and that shit would make me live like a king in Bolivia or the Phillipines or some shit. It still stresse me out though how easy it would be to just stay here if it wasnt for fuckin faggot retards trying to push reddit political nonsense everywhere
>>158464207Thats a really cool screenshot of twitter little guy but I'm an adult

>>158464238
>>158463998>you all could live like kings with your natural resource reservesMyopic way of looking at it, we could absolutely be doing better but resource extraction economies are almost always shitholes with a literal end date on their prosperity (when the resources run out).Also it's literally US oil companies that keep funding our anti-oil & gas protestors (I'm not joking)
>>158464301So using your logic the anti-oil companies are funding leftist politicians or something? Just shut the fuck up already, you are a gay man living in a pathetic shit hole country nobody on Earth has interest in. And yet you still have the most expensive costs of living
>>158464345>So using your logic the anti-oil companies are funding leftist politicians or something?Oil companies you daft fuck, YOUR oil companies because they don't want competition.>And yet you still have the most expensive costs of livingYou live in your own constructed fantasy land.Stop looking at retarded bullshit from /pol/, a pound of meat doesn't cost me $50, a gallon of gas isn't $100, currency adjusted our prices are extremely similar to yours, sometimes cheaper.
>>158464394Thats a really neat screenshot of some blog but I own my own condo and have no debt. The fact of the matter is your currency is monopoly money and nobody cares. I sincerely hope youre young and ignorant, because subscribing to more government expenditures has made the cost of living in Canada worse. And your nit picking politics is a joke. I remember listening to Ian White, a defensive line mate to Nick Lidstom talk about how his life was ruined because he brought an air gun over the border. Like, it literally costs less for a Canadian to get a hotel here in Detroit and watch the Maple Leafs play here than it is to get tickets in your own country, Shut the fuck up already
>>158464437>>Thats a really neat screenshot of some blog but I own my own condo and have no debt.Congrats on thinking that's an accomplishment, I don't know why you think you have mention that as if you have any knowledge of my finances.The rest of your post is just random schizophrenic babble you half remembered from facebook posts so I don't see much point in responding to it.

>>158478544there will be no tournament if 50% of the teams refuse to play against you
Are there any homosexuals here that are able to explain the purpose of the boycott. I dont understand why they dont just defeat Russia at a hockey game
>>158478390Latvia as well i think?>>158478915>Russia bad>If you let Russia play we wont play RussiaNo-homo of course
>>158479390Czechia norway denmark sweden finland nowLatvia has a law they cant play against russia so it was automatical
we need more cunts to put the foot down
>>158479610Austria and the swiss were always neutral, they will reaminGermany is strongly considering boycottingWe are a russian cocksucking countryUs is a russian cocksusking countryKazachstan is a russian cocksucking countryHungary needs russian energy or they freezeNo news from sloveniaCanada wont join Gary wont allow it
>>158418013Canada should pull the Russian team's visas for the World Juniors.
>>158479647Your country gets 11 billion anually from the NHL alone, you are basically Garrys slave for free money. Garry just got back his russian toys for his cup, he would never allow you to do that.
>>158479647Afraid of a challenge?
>>158479708War mongers don't deserve the privilege or respect of competing in global sporting competition. US and Israel should also be banned under that criteria
That would look less retarded if every NHL team didn't have a bunch of russian players already. Fuckin theatrics
All the seething communists in czech rep. and slovakia on social media make me sick. "its not a real competition" my ass. I have never missed a fucking russian in any space since the war started and I hope it stays this way. Whats funny is that only 193 slovaks officialy live in that shithole. Most the positive comments are russian bots anyway.
why is every thread I checked today just like a /pol/ thread, I thought this was /sp/?
>>158479921kek, cope simeckoid
>>158418114how will Belgrade landlords cop with losing 30.000 Russian tenants? will the usual Balkan tactic of meeting a drop in demand with a raise in prices work this time again?
>>158479957>Hates russia>Must be a ps faggotthis is getting old now
>>158418203Russia is losing territory
>>158421535I'm the opposite
Nafoids will never take responsibility for getting all the ukies killed
>>158418941Ain't the boomers thay drive that
>>158449190Er, no. Zero since 2022. Europe still does.
>>158479740>US and Israel should also be banned under that criteriaThat will never happen so no one should be banned.
>>158421535Every Chud is different.I for one, despise Ziggers (not necessarily Russians), and despise China shills (again not necessarily the Chinese people)
Sport journalist here with some ties. Germany will join the boycott tomorrow, Canada is silent, they won't do shit. This is a really serious situation, I wouldn't want to be the president of the IIHF at the moment. Right now everybody is playing the waiting game, they expect russia to throw a tantrum and cancelling their attendance. (it won't happen)The world juniors are fucked, if you loved watching teenagers playing hockey while eating turkey it won't happen this year. WJC made revenue only by the tv broadcast, with so many teams boycotting there is no reason to hold the tournament at all and losing shitton of money without the ads and the sponsors on the tv screens.The skoda cup - WJC is cancellable, the skoda cup is not.Germany will cancel the whole thing if the waiting game doesn't make a result. Here comes the problem.A - Sponsors are withdrawing fast and the IIHF is bleeding money. Skoda is going to hold a meeting on friday regarding their sponsorship.B - The IIHF has an insurance for cancellation (this is why in 2021 the cancelled covid tournament was the most proffitable tournament in the history of ice hockey), but it doesn't cover political reasons. Right now they are bleeding money in a really fast way, cancelling it will make them bankrupt.C - if germany really cancels the tournament they need to find a new host. And fast. Slovakia already made an offer, noone else is willing in the EU. The US made an offer aswell, but the skoda cup is mainly a european thing, they will lsoe ad revenue again during the broadcasts, and the fans wouldn't travel that far.D - even if Slovakia or the US takes over the tournament the problem of the boycotting teams is still relevant. It is like a neverending circle.
>>158418013They should ban Ukraine now for being faggots and owing us all billions, also allow Donetsk Republic to compete
>>158479938
I hope someone's skates slashes a couple russkies
>>158453064So? The swede is still right.
HeyBasically we are just not gonna play against them (russia)I know.... UGH I know ..... I'm sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!It's just that we are not gonna play against them is allHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAHAHHAHAHAHAHA
Carney just confirmed that he won't be granting visas to the Russians.https://youtu.be/VVxrNV9HkPU?t=10m12s
europoofs need their heads smacked together. imagine resorting to this just to avoid encountering Russia. Fucking disgraceful.
>>158418013No they don't. Fuck ruzzia! Forever.
At some point, they have to return. And we have to admit Ukraine lost (all in all). It's not bad to have Russia around in general in the long runBut this is a bit too spontaneous, it's like they're asking for drama
>>158484505Lol why the fuck is politics getting involved in sports?
>>158480798How? Belarus is whiter than USA (60% white), England (70% white), France (70% white)
>>158484505I wonder if he reacts the same way to Israel.
This place is just /pol/ nowadays
>>158480249Based. Hopefully this means no Skoda cup. Basically it was dead since Russians were banned (I mean come on, Czechia winning gold, Latvia third place, Germany second, Switzerland always in the final, USA winning gold, just low level mickeymouse cup), but hopefully this is the death of it for good. The question is what will NPC biological machines do without their nationality scripts of supporting their local franchise team one has to wonder. But at least it would be nicer if I would not have to observe their scripts every year in May.
Garbage dumpster that is europe
>>158418013But Israel is still not banned, or USA for killing those Iranian schoolgirls.Fucking hypocrites.
>>158485566Those countries winLoser countries get banned
>>158485576Hopefully if I can get my career in order somehow I can covert to orthodox Judaism and get law of return so I can go home to Israel. For me, I would look forward most to shabbat dinners and playing boardgames after converting
>>158485595And it's just that, the more I learn about the world and also all the different belief systems, Judaism's focus on actions in this world, monotheism, and intellectual debate really like resonate with me I guess spiritually, logically...it just makes sense to me on some deeper level. Like, I guess I just feel a connection to the land of Israel, the historic and spiritual homeland of the Jewish people and I hope to one day make Aliyah so I can live my Jewish identity in a Jewish society
>>158485595My favorite boardgame is Catan but it's not clear to me yet if that actually is ok to play on shabbat so we'll I guess cross that bridge when we get there... At the least Taki will be ok for sure
>>158485576Russia is the only country that can seriously challenge Canada in ice hockey Dumb euroshitUS isn't even at Sweden/Finland level and Israel is a joke
>>158485839>euroNo need to hurl insults around
>>158485576LMAO America literally elected a pedophole as their lead r. How exactly is that winning?
>>158485576But America can't even beat Iran.
>>158485887Pedophilia is liking pre puberty girls, ephebophilia is liking post puberty girlsTrump did nothing wrong
>>158485903Almost no one using this word really understands it's actual meaning.
If USA is allowed to play, then so should Russia. Does Israel have a hockey team? They should be banned too, if you are going to ban Russia.Trump literally threatened to annex Canada.
>>158485912Pedophilia?
>>158485939Why do you idiots love russia so much
>>158485981Its not that we like russia its that we find the sport ban fucking retarded
>>158485939>Does Israel have a hockey team?yessome of the posts itt are that russia should be readmitted, but have to climb through the ranks and win tournaments like this to get back in the top group
