Source: The Russian hockey team will not play in the 2025 World Cup – Rossiyskaya Gazeta

This was reported by the well-known informant Elliott Friedman. The 2025 World Cup will last only one week and could take place in Europe and North America. Most likely, 4 or 6 teams will participate, but the Russian team will not be among them.

“I think Canada, the United States, Sweden and Finland will play. I suspect Canada and the United States will play North America, and Sweden and Finland will play Europe,” Friedman said on the 32 Thoughts podcast.

He added that the teams will play decisive matches in North America.

There is still no official information on who will participate in the World Cup.

The World Cup was last held in 2016 and then the Canadians won.
