- Over the last few days, some pretty serious stuff has been taking place between Russia and the Ukraine, and whilst these events don't directly effect the Kontinental Hockey league, to say that the league has taken a turn for the worse would be the understatement of the year! Whether it's fans protesting against their own team, sponsors severing ties with certain organisations or a pair of franchises withdrawing from the league completely, the last few days have been one hell of a rollercoaster ride for the predominately-Russian league!
So what's going on in the KHL? Why has there been so much upheaval, and how will it effect the league moving forward? Well let's take a look at the most notable events of the last week and try to find out!
So in today's video, join me as we explore why the Kontinental Hockey League is an absolute mess!

As a Finnish hockey fan I think Jokerit should do similar rebuild as Kiekko-Espoo and bankrupt the KHL company (Jokerit Hockey Oy), start a new company with the foundation (Helsingin Jokerit ry. which owns the name/logo and junior development) in charge, begin playing in Suomi-Sarja or Mestis and slowly build back their image, organization and credibility. With 2 former Liiga teams from the capital region (Kiekko-Espoo and Jokerit) being in lower leagues this would put immense pressure on Liiga to bring back promotion-relegation which would hugely benefit ice hockey in general in Finland.
As a fan of Jokerit's former Liiga rival team HIFK, I have to say that Jokerit joining the KHL is the biggest mistake they ever made. Even I wanted them to leave the KHL and rejoin Liiga, despite being a fan of their most rival team. Because I miss the brutal rivalry these two teams had when Jokerit still was in Liiga. HIFK vs Jokerit games were the best and most fun games to watch in Liiga.
I think dinamo riga is gonna join the austrian league ICEHL bc they aldredy have a czech team, slovenian team, slovakian team, hungarian team and 2 italian teams. And jokerit will go back to ligga
Funny how Jokerit have been the favorite to win the whole thing for atleast two years but haven't been able to play because of the pandemic and now they left because of the war.. They should just leave KHL tbh, I'm quite sure Liiga would be glad to take them back.

Jokerit are obviously trying to get out of the KHL but with the Russian part owners and sponsors it is difficult. Atm political tensions are extremely tight between not just Ukraine and Russia, but between Finland and Russia again. I see no way of the KHL making a huge splash in the hockey world before Putin is replaced in the lead of the nation.
I really look forward for the "Triple Gold Club" video :-D
Since KHL is a Russian league, there is no way that Jokerit could'v ever won the Cup. The Russians would never allow that to happen
Its not going to be a big financial hit. The rubel is worth one American cent now
A very interesting video. Many thanks! On point my friend.
I love the KHL but i think it's time to make a Euro league. Dynamo Riga, Jokerit, Slovan, Copenhagen, London, Oslo/Stavenger etc
The NHL has its own joker team that can't make it out of the first round: The Toronto Maple Leafs. lol...
Ok like half of this video i was distracted trying to find a place to buy a jokerit jersey, but the second half was good
Jokerit leaving is the only real problem. Who gives a shit about Riga?
Jokerit has also been a target of heavy critisism by the KHL because they've missed games because of Covid cases within their player base. KHL has been very vocal about Jokerit "skipping games without the permissiom of the league" whereas Jokerit organisation obviously has been thinking about players' health.
Heard from a podcast today that if the players leave mid contract they need to pay back 60% of the salary.
Can I add?
Rybar needs to make an NHL debut
I wouldn’t be surprised if The CHL (Europe not NA) sort of rebrands into a European Super League especially since Riga and Jokerit are gonna have massive fallout and it could be a great way to generate revenue and entice players from N/A to come over
I've been watching KHL without understanding a word
