The complaint was addressed to the chairman of the KHL board of directors, Gennady Timchenko, and the president of the league, Alexei Morozov.
SKA expressed dissatisfaction with the work of Andrei Yurtaev during the Kharlamov Cup semi-final between SKA-1946 and Polar Bears, during which the commentator criticized the club’s personnel policy from St. Petersburg. The club also believes that the KHL does not take comments on social media seriously and that the lack of moderation harms the entire league, not just a particular club.
In the 2023/24 season, SKA finished its performance in the KHL playoffs by losing in the quarterfinals of the Gagarin Cup to Avtomobilist (1-4). Subsequently, the chairman of the board of directors of the St. Petersburg club, Alexander Medvedev, criticized the work of the refereeing.
