Athletistic/Hockey. Today, October 31, the IIHF provisionally included the Russian national team among the participants in the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan. However, the final decision has not yet been made. Honored Russian coach Vladimir Pluschev spoke about this.

– It is difficult to say anything about this, since the IIHF has “seven Fridays a week”. At this stage, this decision means nothing. Wherever the wind blows, that is the decision they will make. It is no longer an independent organization once they have made their decisions,” Plyushchev said, as quoted by Match TV.

Currently, the Russian national hockey team is suspended from participation in international competitions.
