Spartak coach Igor Grischine summing up the victory over Avangard Omsk in the KHL game, highly appreciated the defender’s debut Maxim Chudinova in the Moscow team.
On Wednesday, Spartak defeated Avangard in the Fonbet KHL Championship away game – 3:1. In this meeting, defender Maxim Chudinov made his debut for the Red-Whites, who signed a contract with the club on November 22, and immediately scored a goal. The 32-year-old hockey player spent the first half of the season in the Kazan Ak Bars, where he did not score a single goal in 7 games.
“Before the game, I told the guys that we couldn’t show a bad game in such a wonderful arena,” Grishin said. – We had to show Omsk all the best of Spartak. We succeeded – we played cheerfully, aggressively and actively.
– Are you satisfied with Maxim Chudinov’s debut at Spartak?
“He exceeded my expectations. I knew he was a master and an experienced player. We need and even need Maxim now, because we have a lot of seasoned defenders injured, the defensive line is very young. For such a match on the second day in the team, Chudinov has a lot of respect.
– Aren’t you afraid that Maxim will get injured again, as it happened to him in many other teams, especially in Avangard?
– Why think about it all the time, and send negative thoughts to the player. We don’t think about it. Chudinov is now in order and we are happy to have him in our team.
Spartak won five out of six games after the change of head coach. The Red-Whites started the season under the leadership of Boris Mironov.
