Before Nikita Mikhailis explained why he decided to move to Magnitogorsk “Metallurgist” .
– What were the options among the clubs during the off-season and why did you choose Metallurg?
– It’s a team with a big name, constantly fighting for the championship. There were others, but they thoroughly discussed with the management of Metallurg and made such a choice. A good choice. Now I’m in Magnitogorsk, so there’s no point in discussing it.
Were the negotiations difficult? No, we started discussing after the World Cup and we decided in two or three weeks. Fight for the Gagarin Cup. It’s pre-season now, the team is building. We are working, looking for our game. I think everything will be fine, — quotes the words of Mikhailis Metaratings.ru.
The new KHL season will kick off on September 1 with the Cup opener between CSKA and Ak Bars.
