The head coach “Capitals of Washington” Spencer Carbury has named the Russian striker Evgenia Kuznetsova an important player in the team, emphasizing that he will try to help the hockey player return to the previous level.
The Russian last season in the NHL played 81 games and scored 55 points (12 goals and 43 assists).
— Kuznetsov is an important player for our team. What he is capable of is world class. My task is to try to identify the aspects of the game that I can help him with and to put him in conditions in which he can succeed. I really appreciate his style of play. I will do my best to help him get back to his old level. He is healthy and in training.
– What did you talk about with team captain Alexander Ovechkin in the offseason?
“He’s in great spirits. He’s excited, hungry. All Alexander talks about is a return to the playoffs, more wins. Even on the phone, you can feel his energy, his passion and his enthusiasm. I I look forward to working with him,” Carbury told the NHL website.
The NHL regular season begins on October 11.
