On August 1, league teams begin preseason training. The regular season of the new season begins on September 3.
“We are already looking forward to the start of the season, we want to win and show good hockey.
— Will you win the second consecutive Gagarin Cup?
– Certainly. We have one goal: the Gagarin Cup. Therefore, we will try to win it in the new season, – Nabokov was quoted as saying by RB Sport.
Magnitogorsk Metallurg won the 2024 Gagarin Cup, defeating Yaroslavl Lokomotiv in the final with a 4-0 series score.
