With KHL-teams Jokerit Helsinki (FIN), Medvescak Zagreb (CRO), and Salavat Yulaev Ufa (RUS) all participating in the Spengler Cup, such a game was not out of the realm of possibility.

However, according to Georges Lüchinger, the schedule of the tournament did not allow for a match-up of the KHL-teams.
