Looks like Bauer is blacked out and there's a big V. Part of sponsorship branding or a new bauer glove?

Those are just retail 2S pro gloves with some sort of sponsor branding on the cuff roll

I posted this on the other forum but I will post it here too.
I have been looking at Avangard's gloves for a while now because they have had a lot of really weird stuff going on there. I thought it was because they had a sponsorship with certain companies but was told that was not the case.
This one shows gloves with normal cuffs, as well as gloves painted and with blank gold cuffs, as well as gloves panted and blank red cuffs.

This one is more covered cuffs.

They have also had "V" on the cuffs from over a year ago (Feb 2021). So I don't think it has anything to do with current world events.

I've had it confirmed to me that it isn't a sponsorship deal, but rather the team complying with KHL restrictions of trying to make all of the gear and gloves more uniform and matching. Though the reason for the V on those specific gloves hasn't been disclosed to me.
These are just retail 2S Pro though.

My favourite was the guy with the "pro stock" NSX gloves haha.
