Agent Alexander Chernykh, representing the interests of the Carolina goalkeeper in Russia Petra Kochetkova assessed the prospects of the hockey player in the NHL club.
Last November, the Russian goalkeeper extended his contract for 4 years with an average salary of $2 million per season.
— Unfortunately, and this is my purely personal opinion, Kochetkov is affected by the not entirely successful contract signed with his North American agent. As one of the foreign agents said: “My mother-in-law would have concluded such a contract. » What was promised is not kept and we don’t give it much chance. I don’t see Carolina’s interest in Petya playing in the first team. But Kochetkov is a good goalkeeper and I hope he proves himself in the future.
— Should Kochetkov hope for a trade with Carolina?
“With a four-year contract for so little money, it makes no sense for the club.” We have to hope he comes into a team’s area of interest and Carolina benefits. Even if I were general manager of the club, I would never give up a goalkeeper of this level for this kind of money,” quotes the RB Sport agent.
This season, the 24-year-old Russian played 3 games in the NHL, during which he conceded an average of 4.33 goals with 83.6% saved shots.
