World Hockey Champion Maxime Sushinski has named the main contenders for the Gagarin Cup victory for the upcoming season.
— There is no clear favorite for the upcoming season. There are also 5-7 clubs competing for victory. Omsk, Kazan, Yaroslavl, Magnitogorsk, SKA, CSKA, Dynamo. I would not say that SKA is head and shoulders above its competitors. Other teams also have decent squads. “Everything will not be so simple,” Sushinsky told Soviet Sport.
The new season of the FONBET KHL Championship starts on September 3. On this day, Metallurg will meet Lokomotiv in the match for the opening Cup. Watch the live broadcast of the match from 16:45 Moscow time on , as well as on matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
