Beijing 2022!

[AlizéeSuperFanFIN]

Well, a couple of medals came from there again and the Finnish hockey team, Leijonat, is on its way to gold!

^The previous post was also meant to say that Germany also achieved both golds in skeleton sledding - but there those golds were only their first historical olympic victories!

Well... Alizée was supposed to be on fire right now at the Beijing Olympics Freeski Ski Cross race...!

[French freestyle skier Alizée Baron, I wished her success, just because of the name!... - Such a rare name for celebrities]

But she has lower back problems and the result is "DNS", a pity that Alizée is not succeeding now because she was already the fifth in Pyeonchang!

I see she was born in 1992, long before Alizée became a very popular name, at least as far as the music industry. So she didn't get her name because of Alizée but I wonder how many babies did?

I see none of them were singers so I guess I was right in saying as far as the music industry though I've heard of a Nigerian singer by that name, without the accent mark, who was killed by her husband a few years ago.

We have also discussed this topic in this thread ...

The sudden popularity of the name [at least in the West] seems to be a mystery.

I have also read about that case in Africa.. It was a tragic incident. And pretty special that there was also a singer with the same artist name.

Well for a happier topic!

Leijonat advanced to the Ice Hockey Olympic final!

The opponent is always tough Russia [but luckily they beat Sweden!]!

It annoys me, about two and a half weeks of intensive monitoring and far too many competitions/golds went to countries I didn’t want to... [And more bad things happened!]

[AlizéeSuperFanFIN]

Well.... It happened! Ice hockey Olympic gold for Finland, finally! And it could be called the most important single victory of the Games!

Familiar factors decided the victory1! At the same time, one bronze also came on the closing day, "a little surprisingly"!

I have to see if I could analyze the whole Olympics even more comprehensively later, now that the closing ceremony is over... - let's see!

The success of little norway is not credible to me, there is something suspicious about it [much], but I will not comment further here because I will be too angry then!

I think most people thought it was between Canada, the USA and ROC (Russia) as far as the gold in hockey. I would have liked to have seen the USA win but I'm glad for Finland. Something like this I'm sure is huge for them.

Who could have predicted an ice hockey Gold for Finland? Nobody. But congratulations to them and I'm sure from here on out in future Olympics, they will be paid attention to.

Thanks thanks!

In fact, Finland has even been the most effective medal winner of the "NHL Olympics" in recent years, but gold has not come ...

[CAN 3-0-0
FIN 0-1-3]

Turin 2006 was a tragedy, it was so close and the golden generation led by Teemu Selänne was in its hardest blow!

A big deal for Finns, as this is the first "big Olympic gold in team sports". Head coach Jukka Jalonen and Marko "Mörkö" Anttila decided again, as in a few IIHF championships in recent years!
