The Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) is set to open its 2020/21 regular season tomorrow when CSKA Moscow hosts Ak Bars Kazan. It is the first professional hockey league to start a new season since the hockey world stopped-on-a-dime back in March 2020. Vancouver Canucks’ former player Nikolay Goldobin is expected to suit up for CSKA in his first ever regular season KHL game. He certainly was showing off his abundant offensive talent in the preseason.
Unlike the National Hockey League (NHL), the KHL eventually decided to cancel the rest of its 2019/20 season in the middle of its league playoffs without naming a champion.
