The new KHL season is scheduled to start on September 2, but there is no calendar of regular season games yet.
In the next KHL season, five clubs that are not based in Russia on a daily basis are going to start – Riga “Dinamo”, Helsinki “Jokerit”, Nursultan “Baris”, Minsk “Dinamo” and Beijing “Kununun Red Star”.
The Chinese club has already agreed that next season’s home games will take place in Mitichi.
“We create the calendar of games taking into account the current situation. We plan that foreign clubs will start the season with away matches in Russia.
If the situation in the countries represented by these clubs has not returned to normal, then these units may also have to play home games in Russia. There are regions and cities that are ready to host such clubs, “media” rsport.ru quotes Morozov.
KHL has both Plan A and Plan B. The league management is in contact with the Riga and Minsk teams, waiting for the final teams of both teams to understand how many foreigners there will be in each of the clubs.
Earlier, “Jokerit” announced that under no circumstances will its home games be held in Russia.
Juris Savickis, the chairman of the Riga “Dinamo” council, has publicly stated that the team is ready to do as the situation will tell.
