National Hockey League (NHL) deputy commissioner Bill Daly said there was a need to find a way for the national hockey team Russia could participate in the World Cup in 2024.

— We recognize the value that Russia brings to international hockey tournaments. It would be a shame if the Russian players, who did nothing wrong, didn’t have the opportunity to participate in the best of the best tournaments. We would like to find a way to prevent this from happening. But these are the realities. In the end, we will have to make a decision, but we are not going to do that today, ”Daily said, as quoted by the Daily Faceoff edition.

Previously, the NHL suspended all business relations with Russia due to the situation in Ukraine.
