Lokomotiv defender Alexey Bereglazov told how the idea for a spectacular shootout arose in tandem with SKA forward Sergei Tolchinsky during the main show of the 2022 KHL All-Star Game in Chelyabinsk.
In the 2022/23 season, Bereglazov and Tolchinsky played for Avangard Omsk. At the main show in Chelyabinsk, Bereglazov played the role of Tolchinsky’s “guard” during his shootout. The hockey player pushed first the field players, then the goalkeeper, so that Tolchinsky shot into the empty goal.
— How did you become “Tolchinsky’s security guard”? The Avangard account on Telegram was called “Krylov’s Security Guards.” It was the press service that suggested this idea to me; Tolchinsky then kept the count for several days. Then we started finalizing it – coats, glasses. Together, Bullitt also came up with the idea of doing it this way. Do I have a good relationship with Tolchinsky off the ice? I won’t say that we communicate often. Once a month we can send each other something,” Bereglazov quotes the Championship.
In 2021, Bereglazov and Tolchinsky, as part of Omsk Avangard, won the Gagarin Cup. Both players left the club in 2023.
