Defender “Admiral” colby williams noted that “Arena Omsk” in terms of conditions for hockey players exceeds the stadiums of NHL .
In the current KHL Fonbet Championship season, 28-year-old Williams has played 66 games and scored 18 (1+17) points.
– Do you like KHL ice palaces? Everyone says Arena Omsk is NHL level.
– Most KHL arenas are excellent. Of course, in Omsk the best, everything at the highest level, including changing rooms, under the stands. There is attention to every detail. This is, of course, NHL level. In North America, the arenas are different and built by different companies. But in terms of conditions for hockey players, Arena Omsk surpasses even the NHL. I would also note the fans in Russia, who are very involved in the game.
In Kazan, the drums resound throughout the match, in Saint-Petersburg, the fans are very noisy. We also have big fans in Vladivostok who charge us with their energy. There are a lot of games in the season, but their support helps us connect with every game. In Vladivostok, people are passionate about hockey. I’m the only Canadian on the team and I get a lot of love and support from the fans. They take care of me not as a hockey player, but as a person,” RB Sport quotes Williams as saying.
