General Manager and Head Coach S.K.A. Romain Rotenberg said that the club makes exchanges not only with “Sochi ”, but also with other KHL clubs, and also use the help of young people from the Major League.
Sochi and SKA have completed six player swaps this season. Vasily Glotov, Ilya Kruglov, Maxim Muranov, Pavel Moisevich, Nikita Popugaev, Nikita Zorkin joined the St. Petersburg team. In total, clubs from Sochi and St. Petersburg have concluded 23 agreements between them over the past three years. KHL President Alexei Morozov said earlier that the league underlined the questionable nature of the agreements between the two clubs.
– You have so many exchanges with Sochi. Where does this interest in a team come from?
“We don’t just have Sochi, we interact with different teams,” Rotenberg told reporters. — We try to develop young hockey players, to use them in the team. Given the long season, there are a lot of injuries now, we had 15 injuries from the main team, in addition there was a serious flu epidemic in the team.
Despite this, we are doing very well, in first place. That means we have reservations: a lot of guys play Neva, our students. The same Gryaznov looks great now, surpassing many other defenders. They are stronger, so we give them a place.
