Very true. The Canadian Football League didn't even have a season owing to covid.

It is with much pleasure and pride to inform the forum that the British colony of Canada was successful in their quest to win the World Hockey Championship by throttling Finland 3-2 in overtime. Go-Canada-Go !!!

From IIHF own website:=

"Andrew Mangiapane was named as the 2021 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship MVP after his arrival sparked Canada’s golden run.

The 25-year-old Flames forward arrived in Riga for his first taste of IIHF play and joined a roster limping on 0-and-3 after a nightmare start. But Mangiapane galvanised the team, forming an instant partnership with Connor Brown and Adam Henrique to prompt a revival that took the Canadians all the way to the big prize. Mangiapane shared top spot in the goalscoring race with seven tallies in that run and had a further five helpers.

The other seven-goal forward in Latvia was Great Britain’s Liam Kirk. That's the first time a Brit has featured so highly since Gerry Davey in 1938. The 21-year-old, the first English born and developed player to be selected in an NHL draft, led the way for his country. His two goals against Belarus set up GB’s first regulation time victory at this level since 1962 and helped to earn him a place alongside Mangiapane in the media’s All-Star select. The third forward to make that team was Conor Garland, whose 13 (6+7) points for team USA placed him second in overall scoring and helped to secure a bronze for the Americans."

It was a horrendous beginning to this fairy story. One was reminded of the bad parts in the original version of Little Red Riding Hood.
