About hockey I like ice hockey. Cool and hot. This game came to my country from Canada. Canada is not only the birthplace of this game, but also a way to live with a hockey. Canada national team won two olympiads strike. It create new vision in this game. I often hear that Canadians are born with skates. It is a joke, but a lot of people play hockey. "When I was a kid my parents wanted me be an ice hockey player..." This phrase seems to be a very popular in biographies of non-hocky Canadian celebrities. I don't really know the history of beginning of national hockey history. It was a part of national sport culture. For me national history begins in 60s-70s when Chernyshev and Tarasov were coaching national team. And clash of Canada and USSR teams. These events made a big bold dot in world hockey history. Next 10 years made a big impact on popularity of the game in my country. A lot of boys (and even girls) played a hockey with wood stick and ball, can,piece of ice on the street. They don't need even an ice hockey special place. They need a few friends and some space. They dreams and they tried. Today national team is another kind of team. It is a part of big sport. It is difficult to say what is team is better: now or ten years ago. From the one hand: it worse, it lost two olympiads. From the other hand: now it has more fundament than 10 years ago and it has a possibility to grow. What I'd like to see from coming world championship? I'd like to see a Team with team-play, combination game, wish to win, wish to play for a team, help teammates. I hope national team will be able to show it real level, without stupid mistakes. Every game will be a game with wish to win, to show a game, not just to show the appearance,
