Andrey SenchenkoSport correspondentAll materialsEmail the authorHockey, the army and problems with the law — until quite recently, hardly anyone expected to see these three meanings in one sentence, and today they form the trend of the summer off-season. Quite unexpectedly, he also touched on Kirill Kaprizov. After the story of the detention of Ivan Fedotov, information spread in the media that the NHL superstar and hero of the 2018 Olympics was allegedly put on a wanted list in Russia for illegally obtaining a military ID. Later, the very fact that Cyril had this document was publicly denied by his father, but the situation around the hockey player did not become calmer. Now the public is wondering where Kaprizov himself is. Contrary to the fact that NHL commissioner Gary Bettman prefers to call the situation a delicate one and requires clubs not to interfere in it, league team leaders are in a state of serious anxiety and horror. Minnesota in particular. The Wild is easy to understand: their most important, valuable and expensive player, who has four more years of a $9 million cap hit contract, can't make it to the US. According to the well-known journalist of The Athletic Michael Russo, the forward of the “savages” made two attempts to return to the States, but he was not allowed into the country due to the lack of a work visa. The source clarifies that at first Kirill wanted to try out for America in transit through Dubai, and then through the Caribbean Islands.
