Filip Hronek (and Filip Zadina) won’t participate in the Channel One Cup

This comes from Mountfield HK’s website, on their homepage:

Filip Hronek do Ruska nepoletí

Filip Hronek byl nominován na prosincový Channel One Cup, kterého se však nezúčastní. „Vzhledem ke stanovisku klubu Detroit Red Wings a možnému dřívějšímu návratu do zámoří se Filip Hronek a Filip Zadina nemohou zúčastnit Channel One Cupu v Moskvě,“ informoval tiskový mluvčí Českého hokeje Zdeněk Zikmund.

Translated to English:

Filip Hronek will not fly to Russia:

Filip Hronek was nominated for December’s Channel One Cup roster, but he will not participate. “Due to the position of the Detroit Red Wings team, and a possible earlier return overseas, Filip Hronek and Filip Zadina cannot participate in the Channel One Cup in Moscow,” said Zdenek Hikmund, a spokesman for Czech hockey.

So only Jonatan Berggren (Sweden) will be taking part in the Channel One Cup this upcoming weekend.
