Russia's junior hockey team will not be allowed to participate in the World Championship, despite the court's ruling.
The International Ice Hockey Federation refused to reconsider the Russian team's participation in the tournament, stating that it had no intention of denying Canada the right to host it.
On October 30, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) ruled in favor of admitting the Russian teams to international competitions. Canada has previously refused to accept Russian hockey players even with valid visas.
The Russian Ice Hockey Federation expressed a strong protest and stated its intention to seek the restoration of the athletes' rights and compensation for damages by all available legal means.
