Future of Kunlun

Chinese hockey?

The National Film Board of Canada produced a documentary feature in 1974 about the UBC Thunderbirds' 1973 friendship tour in China. This was almost 50 years ago. CAN-versation HACK-ey I thought I was watching an episode of the Great White North for a minute.

With regards to that thread - Chinese Gov not allowing naturalised players from Kunlun to compete for Team China at the Channel One Cup - Does this mean the Kunlun experiment is now pointless? 90+% of the team are not Chinese citizens for example

From what i was reading on telegram this rumor was quickly denied.

Team didn't finish dead last this year, so huge celebration.

Ideally, the real goal would be to actually play in China again (and have actual Chinese players), though I highly doubt that'll ever happen.

There's practically no Chinese involvement anymore beyond providing funds.
