I doubt there are sponsors in Sweden willing to quadruple or likely more their input into a team. They'd need a Russian money and with that would likely come relinquishing in part control of the club. That was strict no-no with Espoo Blues when they were in discussion with the KHL (supposedly a majority of the club would have been owned by a Russian sponsor) and I doubt the Swedes would be fine with that either.
