Forward “Washington” Yevgeny Kuznetsov said he joked in the video about returning to Russia and being happy playing in the NHL.
Earlier in the North American media appeared information about the plans “Washington” trade Kuznetsov with another team. The 31-year-old striker’s contract with a salary of 7.8 million dollars per season is calculated until the end of the 2024/25 season.
– Now the video in which you joked that you could go back to Russia has gone viral. Good joke, all the fans appreciated.
“There is nothing to say here. What else can you say? It’s good at home, but it’s a big league and it’s great to play there. Actually, I said it as a joke.
— Your summer is passing in such a way that you are resting at home with your soul.
– And not only with your soul, but also with your head, get away from hockey a little. To treat wounds, to see my parents and my wife, to play with their granddaughter and their grandson. The most pleasant moment is watching our parents spend time with them, ”reports the correspondent in the words of Kuznetsov.
Last season, Kuznetsov played 81 games for Washington, scoring 55 (12+43) points with -26 utility.
