In 2008, the owner of theSoviet Wings Sport Palace, the All-Russia Institute of Light Alloys (VILS) (Russian:Всероссийский институт лёгких сплавов (ВИЛС) accusedKrylya Sovetov of overdue rent payments. This led to the subsequent eviction of the team. The current team left under presidentAleksandr Tretiak's lead, but Krylya's hockey school, junior subsidiary teams, and other infrastructure opted to remain under the effective ownership of VILS. In light of this, VILS created a new team MHC Krylya Sovetov.
