Almost all professional leagues are now on vacation or will be very soon, as is the case for the NHL, while the Stanley Cup Final is not over yet.
During the summer, all these leagues will stop, while the majority of players will be on vacation.
Each player will take the time to fill their energy for next season and train properly.
However, we have known for some time that there will be a summer league in Russia, where the NHL's controversial Colorado Avalanche forward, Valeriy Nikushkin, will participate.
In fact, a mini-tournament will be held in Russia from July 6 to August 31 with the participation of a few NHL players, including Nichushkin.
As if that wasn't enough, in the last few days we learned that another Russian championship will be held during the summer, with a tournament between Russian stars from the NHL and Russian stars from the KHL being prepared.
Among the participants of this tournament, there is a prospect from the Montreal Canadiens, who plays in the KHL, Bogdan Konyushkov.
I can confirm that other players will participate.#BoJ Kirill Marchenko, #GoKingsGo Vladislav Gavrikov (NHL)#GoHabsGo Prospect Bogdan Konyushkov (KHL)
And more I'm sure will be announced. https://t.co/5NutAxQevK

In fact, the 21-year-old defenseman should be part of this tournament for the KHL team and will thus face many excellent hockey players in the NHL.
Obviously it will be a fairly friendly tournament, but despite that, it will be a great experience for CH Hope to face players like Alex Ovechkin, Evgeni Malkin, Artemi Panarin, Igor Shesterkin, etc.
Konyushkov is one of the best young defensemen in the KHL currently, and thus represents a great project for the Habs, if he comes to North America.
Also note that from the KHL side, we can see in the poster posted by Mikhail Sergachev that Ilya Kovalchuk and Alexander Radulov should participate in this tournament.
Overall, this will be an interesting event this summer, and more information is expected to be announced soon.
