FacebookFighter 67 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 (edited) VHL.COM~ Stockholm, Sweden Poppy Harlow Civil unrest stirs in downtown Stockholm. One of the more relevant countries for hockey in the past century has been left out of the global hockey league. Despite an abundance of Swedish players in the VHL the large nation has no reason to believe they will be granted an expansion team any time soon. Some Swedish citizens have traveled to the Finnish capital of Helsinki to protest the lack of Swedish representation in the league. The protesters were chanting "You take our players but leave us out. You steal our money and our clout". It was surprising that they knew perfect English but this reporter does not give her opinion. I returned to Sweden to discuss the lack of involvement with Swedish leader Silvia Renate Sommerlath. In summary she stated great frustration that the home country had not been given an opportunity to show their strength. She threatened to bar any Swedes from entering the league if Stockholm was not granted a team by 2023. It's a dark day for the VHL world, will her threats influence the league or not?
