The Champions Hockey League provides Europe’s 32 best teams from 12 countries with a platform to perform and to compete for the European Trophy. It is an international competition which helps players and coaches to develop, while fans enjoy following their teams abroad and learning about new ice hockey cultures. However, it is exactly this international focus that became the biggest struggle for the CHL during the current pandemic.

Travel restrictions between participating countries had already put several match-ups at risk. Although a number of authorities would potentially issue special permits for travelling sport teams, a vast amount of uncertainty and risks remained. Many discussions and evaluations have taken place in the last few weeks and months with involved parties, taking all available facts and forecasts into consideration.

That Finnish team logo looks like the Oilers mascot Hunter after a 3 day bender.

The Flames a couple of weeks ago loaned Valimaki to the same Finnish team. He needs as much ice time as he can get to recover from blowing out his ACL.

This is terrible and I'm wondering if it happened just down the street from where I used to live in Calgary.

/The uniforms look very familiar to me.

Aside from the hazing, no masks and theyre allowed to use the dressing rooms in alberta ???

Yup...

Alberta brought in new mandatory limits of 15 people at most social gatherings in Edmonton and Calgary on Monday after the province reported 1,440 new cases of COVID-19 over the weekend, including a record of 572 on Saturday.

The province also had a record 4,477 active cases on Sunday, an increase of 826 from the total seen on Thursday.

A total of seven additional deaths were reported over the three-day period from Friday to Sunday.

On Friday, 364 new cases were reported to Alberta Health. That number jumped to 572 on Saturday and hit 504 on Sunday.
