Starting a new thread for (European?) ice hockey antics for the new season. Liiga kicked off last night with six games, among the results we scraped past Pelicans. I haven't been following very closely the comings and goings on during the off season, so I've undoubtedly got some catching up to do. There was some news some weeks back that Jari Kurri is no longer involved with Jokerit. Bearing in mind the amount of effort, not to say money, that he's put into the club these past years, I imagine that to be a situation distinctly not to his liking.
I haven't heard differently, so I'm assuming that the season's format. once again, is 15 teams (well, that bit's known) playing 60 games each in runkosarja, then the play offs (to the usual format) start in March.
