The Champions Hockey League contains 32 teams from twelve different countries. Last year Frölunda won the tournament and this year he would defend the title.
But that will not be the case.
For now, the CHL announces that the tournament is canceled. This is due to the corona pandemic and the precarious situation Europe finds itself in at the moment.
“The situation in Europe has not improved. There are restrictions between countries and the spread of the infection may increase due to travel. There have been many discussions in recent weeks with the parties involved,” CHL writes in a press release.
“Cannot be guaranteed”
“Health and safety are the most important things. Given the current situation, we cannot guarantee that the law will return home healthy, and it will also avoid being quarantined. It is a very difficult decision that we had to make, “says CHL President Peter Zahner in a press release.
At the same time, the CHL announces that it expects the situation in the world to improve in the coming months and that the hockey tournament will return next year.
