– It turned out that even from this team many top players could not take part in the decisive match against the Belarusians. Because the tournament ended on December 18. And the next day, there were ten matches in the KHL! And the same army team was to play in Minsk. Magnitogorsk defender (Egor Yakovlev – approx. “”) was released earlier than expected, because otherwise he did not have time for the Metallurg match.
Well, the calendar compilers should have some brains! Do they really not understand that national team players have to go home, clean up? And this attitude towards KHL national team games is not the first time. How is it possible? All of this led to our team’s defeat and a very poor response. The defeats of Belarusians in Moscow will not increase the popularity of hockey.
– In the league this season is a very eventful league.
– Where are we going? By the way, I also paid attention to this. Why do we need these matches every other day? We are suspended this season from all international competitions and can easily finish the championship not in April, but in May. Why such a rush? We are destroying the training process with this,” Mayorov told .
The Russian national team at the international tournament in Moscow last week beat Kazakhstan (6:2), but lost on penalties to Belarus (4:5).
The KHL season resumed on December 19.
