Ukraine's ice hockey has "no intention of giving up" after a court ruling cleared the way for Russia's return.
As the possibility of the return of Russian athletes looms large over the ice hockey community, Ukraine and the top hockey nations are refusing to welcome Russia back into the international sport.
The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) ruled on October 30 that the International Ice Hockey Federation's (IIHF) exclusion of Russian athletes from its tournaments was illegal, sparking outrage among multiple national confederations and the IIHF itself.
