I wasn't sure where to put this thread , but ultimately, this topic could affect, all leagues, and by doing so, will affect the NHL.
For example, we have all heard that the KHL is in finacial difficulties, and that was before The Covid really hit the world.
Now fully entrenched, Covid is distroying ecconimies, and I would believe Russia would be no exception, in fact, with Russia having started an oil pricing war, they must be suffering dire hardships as of right now.
Will the KHL even survive?
Does the KHL suffer further contraction, do the clubs reduce salaries? Do they let veterans go. Do players
walk away from clubs?
Will there be a mass exodus to the NHL and AHL, and how does that impact UFA and RFA contracts coming due over the next 6 months.....
Like I said, I wasn't sure whether I should have put this in the International League thread, the Covid thread, or the GM thread, but in any case it will possibly impact the NHL and their clubs greatly, which is ultimately why I placed it here.
I would love to hear your comments, and hope to join in more so, throughout
(Mods if this belongs in a different Forum, please move, but IMO, it really does belong here. I think?)
