Athletistic/Hockey. Last week, the Channel One Hockey Cup took place in St. Petersburg. The national teams of Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan, as well as the teams of Zvezda and VHL took part. Nikita Shchitov, a former defender of several KHL clubs, spoke about this. He believes that the Russian national team should consist of VHL players.
– I think the most important thing is that our team is represented by Major League guys. They have something to prove. They need to prove themselves so that representatives of the KHL look at them, so that in the future they can get into one of the clubs, ”Shchitov was quoted as saying by the Championship.
Recall that the Russian team won the Channel One Cup. Roman Rotenberg’s team beat the Zvezda and VHL team (5:2), Belarus (5:3) and Kazakhstan (5:2).
