- Today Russian Women's Championship starts. Despite the fact that two teams won't take part in the tournament (SKIF-2 has an organization reason, because will play in  Junior Championship, and Tyumen team because of financial problems) there are a lot of positive moments. Tournament passes in post-olympic year. Despite the pending task and 6th position, our National Women's Team won the sympathy of audience and tv audience. The Team was emotional, with beautiful goals and victories. First time our general public sees that women's hockey is spectacular, very interesting and in some moments is more interesting than men's hockey. Indeed, the lack of struggle and body-checks allows highly skilled players to show a proper hockey.
