– Zhenya, congratulations! Brilliant game! Tell us about your doppelganger…
– The first goal – there Stromer (Dylan Stroum) in the majority of “5 against 3” gave me an empty net. You don’t need a lot of skill to enter.
The second goal – we ran away in the majority “5 against 4”. Sanya gave me a good pass. It was enough to enter an empty corner.
Long-awaited goals for me…
And for the fans too. You haven’t scored in 202 days!
– Everyone thought that this series weighed on me. But I never care. For me, the main thing is to play well, to have fun, to benefit the team.
– What do you think, thanks to what “Washington” played so well in the majority, having made four out of five attempts?
– In recent games, we created chances, we did everything right. The puck just didn’t go in and we couldn’t score.
And if you keep working, interacting, not blaming each other, not deciding who’s to blame and who’s not, but instead hold on to each other, then end you will still have moments. And even if somewhere the puck should not enter, it will enter at the right time. The key is to keep moving in the right direction, with a positive attitude.
– The absence of many key players in the Washington team had a strong impact on the fact that the team had already suffered four consecutive losses?
— Yes, we are missing eight people. And seven of them are all top players! They consistently take up many minutes of playing time every game. They are playing very well and they are strong leaders for our team.
You can cry from this situation. On the other hand, you can also take it as a chance for other guys to prove themselves. Not only to play a match, namely with good opponents. See how it all goes.
I think the guys who played today for the first, second or third time in the season showed themselves very well.
— I would like to come back to your objectives. After the second puck, which turned out to be victorious, you portrayed a bird beloved by all fans. Why was there no bird after the first goal?
– I knew that today I was going to score the second! Kuznetsov laughs.
– Ahead of the game with “Pittsburgh”. And there you can make us happy with a bird?
– I do not know. You can’t guess here. Basically, I’m not very picky. I usually give passes, I play for partners.
But, of course, I will try to score a goal, then how it will be.
