My recommendation to all hockeyfans on this planet:
Watch the Spengler Cup! It’s aired on TV in North America and in Europe and if
you are even nearby in this area: Go to Davos and enjoy this hockey-party.
The Spengler Cup is probably the best running machine
to sell our great sport of hockey! It is played in a beautifully architected
wood-arena in a pitoresque surrounding with snow, mountains, sun but still with
the infrastructure of a modern city. This tournament is promoted on a very high
level with first-class sponsors, excellent VIP- and fans-houses. If you want to
make your wife happy with Champagne, salmon and designer-food in a surrounding
where she can carry her new coat and the latest boots: Take her for wine &
dine to the nearby Ice-Palace, Yes, go to the Spengler Cup! she will be very
happy. If you want to meet hockey-people because you try to enlarge your
networking within the hockey-family: Yes, go to the Spengler Cup! If the hockey
family still insists to grow our sport into additional potential sponsors, fans
or hockey-friends: Never touch the Spengler Cup – it’s the very best stage to
promote hockey! If you want to make new hockey-friends from all over the world:
Yes, go to the Spengler Cup! If you want to celebrate and drink all night with
mostly happy and friendly hockey-fans in good mood: Yes, go to the Spengler Cup
and enjoy the fan-house! If you want to watch spectacular hockey-pictures in
super “slowmo” on TV with some nice background-stories: Watch the Spengler Cup
on TV. If you want interviews with players in no stress and in good mood: Watch
the Spengler Cup. If you want to witness spectacular plays on the ice: Watch
the Spengler Cup. If you want to witness spectacular plays of world-class
players: Watch this year’s Spengler Cup with all the great lockout-stars. Tons
of reasons to follow this traditional year-end tourney in Davos. It’s a perfect
promoting machine for our beloved sport of hockey, support it, celebrate, and
spread good words about hockey to the world-community! Out sport has to grow
and the Spengler Cup helps to do so!
Are there reasons not to like the Spengler Cup? Not
really but there are some traps: If you want to analyse the game, to predict
winners and losers, to judge teams, leagues or details of players: Don’t watch
the Spengler Cup. You hardly can find hockey-secrets there, these are pure and
straight exhibition games, and we all do know that in hockey there are games
and GAMES and the Spengler Cup is games. You never will find the
hockey-brain-truth in the Spengler Cup, you can’t rationalise hockey in these
games, don’t read anything into results in this tourney but open your
hockey-heart, show your good mood, stop the small wars with „hockey-enemies“,
let’s party: Let’s go to the Spengler Cup! The sport of hockey deserves it!
