Agent Shumi Babaev called Columbus Blue Jackets a good option to start the career of a Russian striker Dmitry Voronkov in the National Hockey League (NHL).
– In Columbus, Russian hockey players adapt quickly. Remember Bobrovsky, Panarin, now Marchenko.
Well done Voronkov, we have to take the risk and go through this. I don’t see any problem. He is always in the fight, such assertiveness is his asset. Quickly get used to the new rules, the game, the dynamics.
Does he stray a lot? The judges are different everywhere and interpret the episodes in their own way. I think Voronkov can quickly adapt to the National Hockey League, – Babaev is quoted by Legabet.
Columbus selected the Russian in the 2019 NHL Draft in the fourth round, 114th overall.
Voronkov played in 54 games last KHL regular season and scored 31 points (18 goals + 13 assists). In the Gagarin Cup, the 22-year-old striker became the team’s third scorer with 12 (8+4) points in 24 games.
Live broadcasts of the matches of the KHL Championship in the 2022/23 season were carried out by the federal channel and the thematic channels of the holding, as well as the websites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
