Athletistic/Hockey. Nizhny Novgorod Torpedo head coach Igor Larionov spoke about his decision not to return to Nizhny Novgorod in a long away series.
“After the match against Spartak, we asked the team to vote – whether we returned to Nizhny Novgorod or stayed in Moscow. We allowed the wives or girlfriends of hockey players to come to see them, because we had a day and a half off. ” In such matters, it is necessary to rely on the team that goes out on the ice. We trusted the guys and they used that trust wisely.
Tomorrow we spend the whole day reaching Vladivostok – flight, snack and outing to the site. The Far Eastern team will live according to Moscow time,” Larionov was quoted as saying by the KHL press service.
“Torpedo” will play against “Admiral” in Vladivostok on November 10. The starting faceoff will take place at 12:30 Moscow time.
Igor Larionov’s team has scored 36 points in 28 matches and is in third place in the KHL Western Conference standings.
