[Albatros]

Playing in the hockey hotbed and and pillar of democracy and human rights og UAE, sure will give the sport a major international uplift....

Dubai locals are crazy about hockey.

During the 3-on-3 tournament at the Channel One Cup, we held a useful meeting with representatives of the United Arab Emirates Winter Sports Federation with its Vice President Hamel Al Qubaisi, General Secretary Juma Al Dhaheri and Sporting Director Mohamed Aref, the Turkish Ice Hockey Federation with its General Secretary Usame Furkan and Sporting Director Eray Atali, and Vice President of the BRICS International Forum Sukrit Sharan. We discussed many details concerning our cooperation such as youth ice hockey and the organization of international matches, including those with NHL clubs. We determined an approximate pool of sponsors which can become partners of our joint programs. Furthermore, we agreed to stage a 3-on-3 hockey competition in Dubai and Abu Dhabi with the participation of players from BRICS countries. The tournament will form a powerful starting point of our cooperation.

They should do it imo, KHL knows there's money there, NHL still hasn't properly tried to go after the Chinese market they can at least go for this.

You can also really tell who's following the usual legacy western media brainwashing here.

Exactly. The KHL and Mideast oil seem like a match for each other.

So, KHL executives met in the UAE with local sports people and someone from the Turkish ice hockey federation, and this is somehow supposed to be relevant regarding the NHL?

The NHL should distance itself from Russia and the KHL, I would not support, watch or buy any products from anything that involves Russia/KHL.

I do not understand why you are providing misinformation to us.

The NHL has played games in China, and they are a far worse country when it comes to that.

You're so close to getting it.
