Norway: World longest game going on in the top league in norwegian hockey right now

[WesMcCauley]

Think this was threadworthy even though its not in the NHL but couldnt find a better place on this site to post it. Game is between Storhamar Dragons and Sparta Warriors. They have now played 9 periods and its 1-1 in the quarterfinal of the playoff. The record for the longest game prior to this was a game between Detroit and Montreal Maroons in 1936 with 176 minutes and 30 seconds.
They have now played 180 minutes and waiting for the 10th period to start. Over half of the crowd has gone home and its now 01.15 am in Norway

Update: Now played 10 periods(200 minutes), still 1-1 lol. 11th period to start around 02.05 am.

Can watch it on tv2sumo.no but you need to pay for it and i think you have to be in Norway to be able to log in.

Its far from NHL level and easily below SHL(swedish hockey league) level but right now i think they are more tired than anything else lol

Read that one of the teams only brought 3 lines to the game aswell And one poor guy had played a j20 game earlier today

 

[El Diego]

I wonder if the best strat at this point is to rest a guy for the 10th and let him nap and have him come back fresh for the 11th

 

[Oddrane]

Haha wow I want to see this

Enjoy, its streamed on this FB-site of one of the teams, but in poor quality, not the TV stream but a on-game camera with lots of delay.

Maybe the Devils should be in Norway scouting their next coach.
