The Seventh Player

The Seventh Player is a sports drama series following a struggling KHL hockey team on the brink of collapse. Once a championship contender, the Builder club has plummeted to the bottom of the standings, leaving its owner ready to shut down operations. In a desperate gamble, he hires an unconventional new director: a former figure skating coach with no hockey management experience. The coach must navigate the fractured team, rebuild trust among disillusioned players, and reignite the passion of fans who once packed the arena. Success hinges on whether this outsider can unite the roster, reconnect the community to the club, and prove that fresh perspective and determination can revive a dying franchise. The series explores redemption, leadership, and the power of believing in second chances.
