It’s unfortunate that almost 2 years in a pandemic that just won’t go away, we are still dealing with multiple waves, closures and misfortunes. While sports have often provided a much-needed distraction, COVID-19 has ensured we can’t even have that. Hockey cancellations and postponements have been the talk of the week, especially with the league on hiatus until last night.
- Earlier this week the IIHF announced they would cancel all international tournaments including the Spengler Cup and the women’s U18 tournament. Many wondered why the IIHF chose to cancel the women’s tournament while finding a way to keep the men’s world juniors.
