— How do you evaluate Mishkov’s performance, in what form did he arrive?
– Healthy. I played well, there were a few chances, but I didn’t manage to score a bit. But I know that Matvey wants to score points in every match and help the team, today it was the same,” Kokorev is quoted on the Sochi website.
Last season, 18-year-old Michkov played 27 matches for the Sochi team and scored 20 points (9+11).
