NHL Trade Drama Unfolds: Rakell’s Unexpected Block, Heinen and Rutherford Shakeups, and a Pivotal IIHF Meeting Revealed
The NHL meets with IIHF president to discuss Russia
TSN: NHL commissioner Gary Bettman and deputy commissioner Bill Daly met with new IIHF president Franz Reindl, and they were looking for some answers on what is going on behind the scenes with regard to Russia. Pierre LeBrun noted that the NHL has the 2028 World Cup of Hockey tournament approaching.
“And here’s what I will tell you about Gary Bettman’s comments to us on this day after the GMs meeting. The tone was in stark contrast to what we saw at the Stanley Cup Final, where the league was kind of preparing everyone for the eventual return of Russia, perhaps as early as the World Cup of Hockey. That’s not what you heard on this day.
