Down-the-line.com/Hockey. Alexander Barkov Sr., the father of famous Finnish striker Alexander Barkov, explained why he refused to send his son to Russian hockey schools.

“When Sasha was still young, when he was 16, a call came from Russia. The coach of Dynamo Moscow said: ‘Come to us, you will immediately enter the KHL.’ They offered a second or even a first center.

I said he has all the skills, he just needs physicality. And Finland is the best place for the development of physics. Not from Russia”, Barkov Sr. was quoted by Ilta-Sanomat.
