Default KHL vs NHL

Is anyone else getting pretty nervous about the new Russian, Belarus, Kazakh, and Latvian league? It seems like all the news paper articles and all the blogs and everything on the internet that they are going to take a serious run at being the number 1 league in the world.

The weird thing is, I think they have a good chance of doing it. With the NHL being at one of its weaker points, it is the perfect time for other leagues to "attack" and move up in the rankings.

The no salary cap for the KHL is going to get a lot of big players interested from all around the world.

Also the KHL has 24 teams at the moment and they want to expand into the 09-10 season, they have invited the Swedish powerhouses Farjestads and Frolunda. They have no accepeted OR REJECTED.

thoughts?
