The National Hockey League refuted the statements of Mikhail Degtyarev about the preparation of matches between Russia and the USA. NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly stated that there are currently no such plans.
It is recalled that during a phone call between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, the possibility of holding hockey matches between players from the USA and the Russian Federation was discussed. However, the NHL learned about this idea only after the call took place.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov reported that there is currently no specifics in organizing a match between KHL and NHL players. He noted that the idea is hypothetical and criticizing it is inappropriate.
