After the match, the crowds were not to bad, although the Metro was crowded. Hockey is a family sport here, many parents with children, who could have the home team’s logo painted on their faces.
So, after the match I left via the concourse around the stadium
Bade farewell to the Ice Palace
And returned via the metro
The sad thing was that on the way I ran into a couple of people looking for food or money. You don’t see many people begging or homeless people, but there are some. I have noticed that people sometimes give money in these situations, but it would be very hard to be homeless here, sometimes -20 degrees or more at night, and 16 hours of darkness at this time of year.
