President Donald Trump supported President Vladimir Putin\'s idea to organize hockey games between the U.S. and Russia during their phone call on Tuesday, according to a summary released by the Kremlin.
According to the Russian government, Trump and Putin discussed \"hockey matches in the USA and Russia between Russian and American players playing in the NHL and KHL,\" which is Russia\'s professional hockey league.
\"We have just become aware of the conversation between President Trump and President Putin,\" the NHL said in a statement to ESPN. \"Obviously, we were not a party to those discussions and it would be inappropriate for us to comment at this time.\"
