The head coach Vancouver Canucks Ric Tocquet noted that the team striker Vasily Podkolzin should act more decisively on the ice.
“He just needs to play a little more recklessly. Vasily plays quite conservatively. He recovers the puck and begins to think about the right decision. He just wants to make the game safer even when no one is around. And at this moment, on the contrary, you need to start playing an attack or move your legs faster.
In development camp, he looked haggard and skinnier. I told her not to go crazy and take a little vacation. But I like his diligence in him. — said the specialist in an interview with Sportsnet.
Podkolzin had four goals and three assists in 39 NHL games last season.
