In the Russian Ice Hockey Federation’s announcement of KRS Heilongjiang joining the VHL, it was reported that 15 Chinese players were at the event announcing the team and those players would make up the core of the KRS Heilongjiang roster. Later they were replaced by Russian and Canadian players who played for various clubs of the KHL and VHL. The team held their first match in August 2017 against Khimik Voskresensk and lost 0:6.
