First Vice President “Metallurgist” Sergey Laskov commented on the progress of the players of the Magnitogorsk team in a comment Metaratings.ru Nikita Grebenkina and Valeria Orekhova which are rented.
— How do you rate the progress of the players on loan — Nikita Grebenkin at Amur and Valery Orekhov at Admiral?
– Great, guys are evolving. Next year we will use guys. Especially Grebenkin, who attended KHL school, played good working hours with good hockey players. We see his evolution, we understand where he will play and what he will do. Same for Orekhov. It was a bit tough physically, but I played on loan and showed my abilities. Once again, we were convinced that the choice was the right one. The guys will always play in the team.
– Grebyonkin will act in the center of the attack? Does he remind you of Malkin?
– Well, for the center – I don’t think so. He will have to step up his work on the face-offs, but there is such a vector in his game. Let’s see, he is a versatile player who can play on the edge and in the center. He has the opportunity to evolve as a central striker.
Grebenkin has made 35 regular season appearances for Amur this season, scoring eight goals and 13 assists. Because of Orekhov 12 matches for the “Admiral” one goal and one assist.
