A scheme is possible in which there will be a new coach for each individual tournament of the Russian national hockey team, believes the former general manager of several KHL clubs Leonid Weisfeld .
According to , Alexei Zhamnov will step down as head coach of the Russian national team after May 31.
– The FHR knows the schedule of the national team. They probably have ideas about it. There are different options. The Canadians meet in a week and go to the World Cup. The schedule is not full and the team needs to figure out what to prepare for. A scheme is also possible, in which there will be a new coach for each individual tournament.
We may well have such a scheme. They reunited to play three matches for the First Channel Cup and then they don’t play for six months. Because of three games to take a coach into the staff? What will he do for the remaining 360 days? It seems to me that this is only a working diagram. But I don’t know what the FHR considerations are,” Weisfeld told Metaratings.ru.
The International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) has suspended the national teams of Russia and Belarus from their competitions for the 2023/24 season.
