(18 Jan 2013)KHL cancels Višňovský’s contract with Slovan Bratislava
As a new NHL Collective Bargaining Agreement has been ratified by both the clubs and NHLPA, all the players with a valid NHL contract are obliged to join their teams in pre-season training camps. A Slovak defender Ľubomír Višňovský did not like the idea at all and stated he wish to finish the 2012/13 season in the KHL team of Slovan Bratislava due to personal reasons. But his NHL employer, the New York Islanders, do not want to accept that and called Višňovský to arm repeatedly. As the 36-year old player was not willing to travel across the Atlantic Ocean anyway, the Islanders asked the KHL Board to cancel Višňovský's contract with Slovan and they succeeded. KHL commented the decision the league wants to follow the NHL - KHL Memorandum about respecting of players' contracts, but will keep negotiating with the Islanders about possible compromise.
