Earlier it became known that the IIHF rejected the appeal of CSKA goalkeeper Ivan Fedotov against the suspension due to a contractual situation with the Philadelphia Flyers. The IIHF admitted that the FHR could be expelled from the organization in connection with this matter.
Fetisov: “Does it make sense to go to the Olympics and discredit those who cannot go?
“So why are we paying attention to a moron? Well, good! Our current internal affairs are more important than everything else! What will happen if Russia is kicked out of the IIHF? And who are they for us? They have no right to exclude, they violate all rights, even if they try!” — VseProSport quotes Fetisov.
