Advance “Lada” Andrei Altybarmakyan in an interview with , he said he hoped for clubs such as Metallurg Novokuznetsk and Yugra Khanty-Mansiysk to return to the KHL.
On Saturday, Lada lost to Traktor in the KHL regular season game with the score 1:2. This game was Togliatti’s first after returning to the KHL.
– Now there is such a trend that footballers of Armenian descent strengthen the Armenian national team. Maybe it’s time to organize something similar in hockey too?
– A complicated problem. Why not, if even in Chechnya they wanted to organize a hockey club? Why not create a team in Armenia? If there is such interest, I will go and help them. But of course, it’s too early to talk about it seriously. There are enough clubs in the KHL and I’m incredibly happy that another club with a long history and rich traditions is returning to the league. The more often this happens, the better. I hope that Novokuznetsk and Yugra will sooner or later come back after Lada. It will be better for us and for Russian hockey,” Altybarmakyan told .
