How the First Attempt to Bring Cheerleaders to Russian Hockey Badly Backfired
On June 29, 1993, the Pittsburgh Penguins did something that no NHL team had ever done: They took out an ownership stake in a major Russian hockey team, buying part of CSKA Moscow, better known to this side of the Atlantic as Central Red Army.
The fall of communism in Eastern Europe changed the world, and those changes also reverberated in hockey. Many of the best players from the other side of the Iron Curtain flocked to North America to play hockey in the NHL. Pittsburgh’s decision, spearheaded by owner Howard Baldwin, showed that American capital could flow to Russia even as Russian players traveled in the other direction.

If selling out the next game is equivalent to "backfired", no wonder the American economy's tanking!!
