A hockey player Vladimir Tkachev spoke about the attitude towards Russian players in “Los Angeles “.
The forward couldn’t get a foothold with the Kings, spent most of the season in the AHL and moved to Avangard.
– Todd McLellan had problems even with Ilya Kovalchuk. Nikolai Prokhorkin did not play in Los Angeles. Do you see a pattern in that? Maybe it’s the attitude towards the Russians?
I heard different things, of course. But they told me directly in the club that they treat Russians well and that all past episodes were an accident. But if one, two, three… Maybe already a boss? God forbid the next Russian, who ends up in Los Angeles, can play and refute all speculation,” Tkachev said in an interview with Sport24.
Tkachev scored 2 points (0+2) in four NHL games with Los Angeles last season and had 35 points (9+26) in 46 AHL games, including the playoffs.
