Proposed legislation could limit the number of non-Russian players allowed to compete in the KHL.

The bill, which has yet to have a final draft passed, was posted on the Russian government’s official website Tuesday.

Russia’s minister of sports, Vitaliy Mutko, told local media that the aim of the proposed legislation is to improve Russia’s national teams.

It’s unclear when the proposed legislation would begin to affect KHL rosters and how many non-Russian players would be allowed on each team.

Notable non-Russian KHLers currently include: Vladimir Sobotka, Ryan Whitney, Jonathan Cheechoo, Linus Omark and Sheldon Brookbank among many others.

The bill would also affect non-Russian soccer players in the Russian Premier League.
