“Let's ask the Kontinental Hockey League to write the names of players in Russian letters from next season”
Vyacheslav Fetisov, in a conversation with Mash on Sports at the “Knowledge. First” forum, suggested that the KHL return to the Russian language during broadcasts.
Despite the fact that today there are no teams left in the league from Western countries where they do not speak Russian, all graphics and player names are still written in Latin. There is only one country in the league whose population definitely does not know our language – China. However, Kunlun Red Star has been playing in Balashikha for a long time, and not in the Middle Kingdom.
Fetisov approached the league to make Russian the league's primary language instead of English. And he said that the KHL would respond officially. We are waiting.
