Double Gagarin Cup winner with Dynamo Moscow Sergei Konkov offered to hold additional tournaments after the end of the Fonbet KHL Championship for clubs that did not qualify for the playoffs.
– In a situation where we are isolated from international matches, at the end of the championship we have to offer additional tournaments where we could watch the young people. In Siberia, you can create your own tournament, in the Urals – yours, in Moscow – yours. Teams that didn’t make the playoffs, what, go on vacation in March and just train?
The MHL guys need to feel the intensity of the struggle in the KHL. You can always make a youth team to participate in such tournaments. But there is a financial point here. How will the teams handle this? I think the experts are looking at different options. In any case, we will see something, RB Sport quotes Konkov.
This season, 22 clubs play in the KHL, of which only six will not be able to access the Gagarin Cup according to the results of the regular season.
