Former Sochi defender Nikita Shchitov believes that Omsk “Avant-garde “The head coach should not be fired Mikhail Kravets .
Avangard, having scored 31 points in 25 matches, is in seventh place in the KHL Eastern Conference standings.
— What do you think about the fact that rumors about Kravets’ resignation appear from time to time?
— All Eastern teams play close, point-to-point. We always like to fire someone. But we must no longer disturb the coaches, they must work calmly, and we must draw conclusions at the end of the season. Now there is an outcome, and it may be completely different.
— Former Avangard employee Igor Eronko recently said that Kravets was a coach “not for big things.”
– Why is Kravets not for big things? You can’t say that. Only time will tell everything. Kravets is a good, hardworking coach who can build a team. He has led an ambitious club, and this is the first such serious challenge of his career. Today, he is under pressure from the press, he is an emotional person. So Kravets will take it and prove in the playoffs that he is a coach for big things. What will this specialist say then? I wish Mikhail Grigorievich success,” RB Sport quotes Shchitov.
