  • ICE Hockey League 2025/2026

    Zitat von WAT stadlau4EVER

    Wien ist auch bereit nach Bozen und Brunneck zu fahren. Nach Budapest geht durchgehend eine Autobahn, und für die Fans gibt es nahezu stündlich eine Zugverbindung, von der Station Kelenföld, wo alle internationalen Züge halten, hast du 20 Minuten Fußweg zur Halle. Zudem wird den Gastmannschaften Aufenthalt und Verpflegung in einem Hotel bezahlt. Das Geld welches Budapest als Aufnahmegebühr bezahlt hat wird von der Liga und somit den Vereinen auch dankbar angenommen. Und dem Ansehen der Liga tut ein Verein einer 1,8 Millionen Einwohner Metropole auch gut. FTC hat bisher in der Liga keine Probleme gemacht, und sportlich sind sie sogar besser unterwegs als viele voraus gesagt haben.


    Du hast Recht.
    Für Wien ist das in Ordnung; Wien ist die „Hauptstadt“ der Liga.
    Man muss sich auch die anderen Städte/Teams ansehen.
    Wie du sagst, ist es nicht dasselbe für Bozen, Bruneck, Innsbruck, Villach, Vorarlberg, Laibach, Klagenfurt.

    Ja, eine Stadt mit etwa 2 Millionen Einwohnern ist wichtig, aber das ist relativ.

    problems with Bolzano? why? about fans?

    Also I think, why are there 13 teams this season like last years and not 14 teams? It isn't better 14 teams?

    Why not do like in NHL, Ovest Division and East Division (or north and south)?

    Are there any facts to back this up?

    Because looking in from the outside, I would have said that the golden age of Italian ice hockey was in the (early) 1990s, with Milano Devils winning the Alpenliga and Varese the Federation Cup, Jagr and Kurri playing in Italy during the lock-out of 1994/95 and perhaps most importantly the national team making three consecutive appearances at the Olympic Games (1992, 1994 and 1998) - on merit, not by being the host, as well as being a fixture in the top division of the world championship from 1992 to 2002.

    it isn't the first sport in Italy. Asiago is a small town, need to search fans outside Asiago, to promote to tourists from others cities. Something has been moving for a few years now, and the results are visible. Tourists are interested, and they're talking about the team and the sport.
    Attracting young people from the lowlands and involving schools is important.

    Zitat von The Marmot

    Da macht euch mal keine Gedanken, bis die neue Halle steht, vergehen mindestens zehn Jahre ...

    If the club is convincing, if its solidity is convincing, if the efforts for the current stadium are convincing and if the new stadium starts to be built, they could return to ICE sooner than expected.

    Zitat von Volves73

    Bei Asiago ist/war nicht nur das Stadion ein Problem. Die Fans selber hatten ja auch keine große Freude gegen österreichische Teams zu spielen. Habe da die letzten Jahre öfter auf ihrer Facebook-Seite gelesen. Denen wäre großteils ja 10x lieber es gäbe wieder eine rein italienische 1. Liga.

    Allein schon die Polemik wieso man Asiago rausgeworfen hat und nicht Innsbruck. Hat man laut ihrer Meinung natürlich nur nicht weil Innsbruck ein österreichisches Team ist. Undsoweiterundsofort. Könnte da noch viele Beispiele aufzählen...

    Sähe das auch trotz evtl. neuem Stadion sehr skeptisch, dass die ICE in Asiagos Fankultur große Freudensprünge auslösen würde.

    Yes, Some fans said and say this because they lost often. Before, we were used to always winning. It's better to aim high, be ambitious, you learn from losing, you learn from mistakes. You have to know how to win and lose. The level in ICE is higher than in ALPS, more fun and exciting.

    Zitat von ToniZamboni

    Was heißt hier hauptsache expandieren? Bis das neue Stadion steht (wenn es denn gebaut wird), hat man ja Zeit, die "neue Organisation" in Asiago zu beobachten. Wenn dann gut gearbeitet wird, die Infrastruktur passt und auch eine gewisse finanzielle Sicherheit da ist (die die Liga ja angeblich bei Neubewerbern verlang), warum nicht?

    in my opinion, not before 1-2 years, but never say never.

    and also the organization is excellent, especially during the men's and women's youth world championships.

    Zitat von semen

    Was waren nochmals die Anforderungen, die Asiago nicht erfüllt hat? Hauptsächlich die Infrastruktur?

    Wenn ja --> dann wären mit einem neuen, modernen Stadion ja die wichtigsten Punkte gelöst --> es gibt keinen Grund dass sie nicht in der Liga spielen --> die würden ein gutes 14. Team bilden.

    Yes.

    Probably the stadium.
    Some improvements have been made: new balustrades, new lighting, new seats, new paint, new stands, new heating/ventilation system, new TV screens, and, a few weeks ago, a new roof and cleaning of the attic wood.
    The efforts have been made. Even the re-election under the new management (during the vote) wasn't enough. They say they missed the majority to favor Asiago for the 2025/26 championship by 1-2 votes.

    Zitat von gm99

    And where were all those thousands of people that allegedly support Asiago? Apparently not in the stands, nor in front of pay-per-view streams.

    Ice hockey it isn't like football or volleyball or basketball or tennis in italy.

    Need visibility and a lot of work.

    Ice hockey is becoming more and more exciting every year

    Zitat von Tine

    Eine derart riesige (fast 2 Millionen Einwohner) und wichtige europäische Metropole in der Liga zu haben, kann man eigentlich nur positiv bewerten. Asiago hatte ca. 6000 Einwohner. ^^

    Mit dem wirtschaftlichen Hintergrund und lediglich Fehervar als Konkurrenzklub für die Einheimischen wird das über einige Saisonen hoffentlich zu einer genau so starken Konstante wachsen wie Fehervar!

    No, not exactly.

    Asiago yes 6000 people

    But Asiago is in the "Altopiano dei 7 comuni" with 20.000 people, and 30 minutes you are in plains (Po Valley), Asiago is in "Province of Vicenza" with 800.000 people.

    Asiago thanks to tourism, have people/fans from other regions in italy.

    Maybe austrian clubs prefer to do a lot of km to Budapest.

    Asiago it is no less than Feldkirch and Brunico, yes probably the staiudm (Brunico), look the old stadium.

    We'll see in the future, next years or years

  • Asiago Saison 2024/25

    Zitat von HC_Murmltier

    In my opinion Asiago is a nice addition to the league, of course it is shitty that they didn't renovate their stadium in the time frame they received but I feel like this is the norm in Italy when you have bigger construction works. I think at least for us in Pustertal, even if we don't like them a lot, it is better to have them in the league rather than not.

    By the way I really appreciate the posts by Omo here who gives good information in contrary to Odegar who only knows how to insult other people when they say something against Asiago.

    thanks you too! Grazie!

    Zitat von Lever

    Kann man nicht erfinden.. :S

    The company is working hard. The audience is growing, little by little every year there are improvements in the stadium and in the organization. Latest news is the agreement between the three Italian teams for the broadcast of 8 matches for each Italian team on the "DAZN" streaming channel. Greater visibility for everyone

  • Asiago Saison 2024/25

    :) :!: :)

    Latest news (recent press conference mayor, president, designers):

    -Work on the roof postponed to April 2025, because the company in charge was awarded in July, requiring 5 months without interruption. Not possible now from July because first match in Asiago on 18 October.

    -End of August/early September works, replacement and upgrading of air conditioning, heating refrigeration, and dehumidification of the stands, the ice rink, the entire stadium, the main cause of the deterioration of the roof.

    - restyling/cleaning/renewal of the internal environments, stands, flooring, new seats

    - removal of aesthetically ugly parts

    - a mobile grandstand (stadium entrance) is planned for a further 300-400 seats (perhaps from September/October)

    - After next season we will also think about 6 new changing rooms (west side/park side), 1 gym (also public) and 1 restaurant

    - From April 2025, after the under-18 world championships, roofing work will begin, removal of photovoltaic panels, and subsequent installation and expansion of the panels, removal of wooden covers with sheet metal panels. The wooden parts under the roof, wooden beams, etc., some replaced because they were damaged, others completely cleaned. Unfortunately some wooden parts cannot be touched.

    Without these interventions, the stadium would have been closed.

    Over 40 years without maintenance.

    The dream, the idea still remains a new stadium, in another area, but in the meantime the current stadium needs to be fixed up to be used. The interventions that will be carried out may eventually be transferred to a new stadium.

    The team currently trains in the ice rink in Roana, a nearby town.

    Now the stadium is now closed, ice melted, for various types of checks

    Due to the current closure of the stadium, the friendlies and tournaments will all be played away. The closure of the stadium in this period brings economic damage, a summer tourist destination, sold out again this summer, all the altopiano of Asiago. Friendly matches in their own stadium would bring a lot of visibility and many spectators.

    Various important initiatives are planned for the visibility of the teams and the entire environment, also collaboration with national TV. More news soon

    This news in March about Asiago stadium:

    The stadium deserves a separate chapter, whose renovation works are scheduled for the building, starting in June, and include the reconstruction and cleaning of part of the wooden roof, the replacement of the engines for creating ice and therefore the heating of the stands, new seats and the construction of a new turbine. “Certainly the stadium represents an important welcoming place not only for the citizens of the plateau, but also for tourists. Our requirement would be to have the stadium available again by 20 September, for the start of the championship, with a prospect of reopening to the public from early October at the latest - explains president Mantovani - If this is not possible, the closest arenas which we could make use of would be Bolzano or Cortina".
