When planning the calendar, we always proceed from the fact that some teams, which are the base teams of their national teams, unfortunately play “Barys is further convinced that the second round does not take place, and the trend of recent years shows that teams are actually without training for two months before the World Cup,” Morozov quotes Rossiyskaya Gazeta. .
The 2024/2025 season could end on May 31 (the decisive seventh match of the Gagarin Cup final is scheduled for this date). It is interesting that in the second half of May the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) organizes the World Hockey Championship. However, since March 2022, the IIHF has suspended the Russian and Belarusian national teams from their competitions due to events in Ukraine.
