Ak Bars general director Marat Valiullin said the club was in contact with the striker Dmitry Voronkov .
The Russian attackerColumbus » Dmitry Voronkov fought with Montreal tough guy Arber Dzhekaj and got an assist in his NHL debut (3:4 OT).
— Are we communicating with Voronkov? Yes, we had a dialogue throughout the NHL preseason and we still communicate. He came to the opening match with CSKA, we talked to him. When he signed the contract with the NHL, he included a clause regarding a possible return. We asked the agents to include this in the contract. We have time before the deadline.
Let’s see how things go for Dima in Columbus. Last year, Danila Zhuravlev was invited to Colorado, but was retained in the AHL. Then he expressed a desire to return and an agreement was reached with the club. We are constantly in contact with Dima’s agents – Alexander Chernykh and Yuri Nikolaev. We are monitoring the situation.
Didn’t he say, “They won’t call you until the end of October – take it away”? No, that didn’t happen. Like many, he said he was following a dream. He makes his way, fights, makes the news. Shows here the character with which he earned his name. We wish him good luck, we are very happy that he went to try it. If he comes back, we will be even happier (smiles). “Everything depends on him,” Valiullina was quoted as saying in “Championship.”
