Double Olympic champion Boris Maireov commented on the decision to postpone the World Cup of Hockey to 2024, noting that apart from the Russian team, Canada has no worthy rivals.
On November 11, the National Hockey League Players Association (NHLPA) and the National Hockey League (NHL) released a joint statement indicating that the World Cup, which was scheduled to take place in February 2024, has been postponed. to 2025. The hockey players’ union and the league announced that “under the current conditions, the holding of the tournament is not possible”.
– In the NHL, they are engaged in trade – they do not want to get involved in political disputes. Who can Canada play with in 2024 if not Russia? With childish Swedes? Czechs? In the NHL, Russian guys play in almost every team: there are also a lot of our promising guys. The NHL does not want to lose the level of competition. That’s why it makes sense that the World Cup is postponed for the Russian team to perform well there. They calculated everything in advance before making such a decision, – quotes the words of Mayorov “Championship”.
The last time the World Cup was held was in 2016. The victory was won by the Canadian team, having beaten the European team in the final, and before that, the Russians in the semifinals.
