Father of the Russian defender “Calgary Flames » Nikita Zadorov Sergei Zadorov told that the hockey player is jealous of the little playing time, unlike his teammate. Rasmus Andersson .
Earlier it became known that the Russian, through his agent Dan Milstein, requested a trade in Calgary; the player’s representative himself wrote that it was very likely that the hockey player would leave the Flames.
– Today, just like you, I learned for the first time that Nikita had requested a trade from an agent; before that, there were no conversations, not even assumptions. He was probably finished after the 15 minutes he was given to play. He’s jealous that Anderson plays 28 minutes and is released for 15.
— We have the feeling that there are problems in the team.
— The problem is two players who were signed for over 10 million, but have fewer points than Nikita Zadorov. This is the problem. It is Huberdeau And Kadri . “This is just my opinion,” Zadorov Sr. told .
This season, Zadorov Jr. played 12 games in the NHL regular season and scored 5 (1+4) points with a utility rating of -6.
The 28-year-old Russian has been playing for Calgary since 2021; Previously in the NHL, he also played for Chicago, Colorado and Buffalo.
