So, now situation is bit more clearer how with all those potential additions league will still contain only 24 teams because it was just announced that Mechel Chelyabinsk as of today is no more. Mechel hockey school and MHL B team will continue to work as before. Probably Traktor will take over the MHL B side and will send their youngsters there, thus getting the second youth team they were wishing for.
As it stands:
- Donbass to KHL,
- Mechel to "heaven"
+ Buran Voronezh
+ team #23
+ team #24
So two spots for three cities (Karaganda, Krasnodar, Tver) to compete for.
