Two-time Gagarin Cup winner Sergei Konkov told Metaratings.ru that forwards Sergei Tolchinsky And Arseniy Gritsyuk to strenghten S.K.A. .
Earlier, SKA announced the transfer to the team of two-time Gagarin Cup winners Sergei Tolchinsky and Artem Sergeyev, as well as the winner of the 2021 Gagarin Cup and the Alexei Cherepanov award for the best young player in the KHL in 2021/22. Arseniy Gritsyuk season.
– Obviously SKA is now doing everything possible to win the Gagarin Cup, so they are signing new players. How they will get everyone under the cap is the task of the club leaders – to ensure and coordinate everything that is written in the regulations.
The signing of Tolchinsky and Gritsyuk is a definite improvement, these guys have already won the Cup, they have a winning spirit. Moreover, SKA signed another player from Omsk – Dedunov.
Tolchinsky and Gritsyuk are leaders, top players. They played together in Avangard’s second tie, and it’s still unclear who their central striker will be at SKA.
St. Petersburg has a sufficient number of skilled players who understand the game, there are also playmakers. This is the newcomer Kadeikin, there is Khusnutdinov, Glotov, Bardakov, Prokhorkin. Here, during the season, probably, no combination can last from start to finish. Try and seek is the task of the technical staff to select the optimal links so that the players reveal themselves in the best possible way.
Peter buys all the players? Honestly, for me, on the one hand, it’s probably good when you have a long bench, you can rotate the composition. There will always be added tension for the hockey players themselves when you have high competition. Not everyone will get enough playing and practice time, so there may be some dissatisfaction. These issues will also need to be addressed by the coaching staff and management, how to optimize the squad and create a battle-ready squad.
I think SKA managers are well aware of what they are doing when they are running a transfer campaign. For any team and manager to have such a selection of great players is a pleasant headache. The competition can give a high level of motivation, the guys will be in good shape, but time will tell,” Konkov said.
Last season, SKA reached the Western Conference finals in the playoffs, where they lost to eventual Gagarin Cup holders CSKA with an aggregate score of 2-4.
