I thought they (Karhu - Titan/Jofa, Koho, Canadien) were bought by Reebok, along with CCM.

The Koho name was dropped by CCM-Reebok as a retail brand. However, Monkey Sports Inc (Goalie Monkey, Hockey Monkey, etc) revived the Koho brand as their store brand. Being based in southern California they formed a relationship with Jonas Hiller. The fact that the Koho logos and name appear on all the gear Hiller wears means that Monkey Sports has paid the fees associated with each category for display in NHL games.
