Moscow CSKA will deal with the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIIF) sanctions imposed on the club and the team’s goalkeeper Ivan Fedotov declared “” three-time world champion in the Russian team Alexei Tereshchenko.
On Monday, the IIHF announced a four-month suspension of the Russian goaltender from the Rouge-Bleu, effective September 1, 2023. In the summer of 2022, the hockey player signed a rookie contract with the Philadelphia Flyers NHL club, but he was later called up for military service. At the end of his service, he signed a two-year deal with CSKA, which was registered by the KHL in July. Along with disqualifying the player himself, the IIHF also imposed a one-year ban on international transfers to CSKA.
“It was clear from the start that the IIHF would react in this way. I think CSKA knows what to do, the club will take care of this problem. Not stupid people are working on it either, everyone understands perfectly well, they will file an appeal.
Russia needs a banal contract with the NHL, like other countries, in order to receive monetary compensation for a player transferred to the NHL. Some countries receive $250,000 for a hockey player. It’s normal money by today’s standards, but we don’t get anything at all. Too bad, of course, Ivan, that he received a disqualification. I missed a year, now it’s been four more months, Tereshchenko told .
The new KHL season kicks off on September 1 with the opening Cup match between CSKA and Ak Bars Kazan.
