Athletistic/Hockey. Calgary Flames defenseman Nikita Zadorov has called Florida home.

“In Russia I only have my parents, and they have their own point of view. Let’s leave everything as it is. I probably won’t be able to go back there soon. But now Florida is my home and I enjoy the time passed there.

Every person has their own opinions. In my opinion, 99% of players mostly – Canadians, Americans, Swedes – focus first on hockey, on their life and family, and do not get involved in politics. But this aspect interests me. I like this. I read articles about it and listened to many experts, and now I am more conscious of speaking out,” Zadorov said, as quoted by Sportsnet.
