Athletistic/Hockey. Olympic champion, legendary Russian hockey player Ilya Kovalchuk, spoke about a possible return to Spartak. The 40-year-old Russian is a product of the red and white team and it is from this team that he set out to conquer the NHL in 2001.
“I think all the i’s will be put on the i’s by the end of November. Now I’m training hard and I hope something good comes out of this story.
It will take me time to get back into shape. No training in the gym can replace playing the game. But it seems to me that finding yourself in optimal conditions will not be a problem,” Kovalchuk quotes RT.
Ilya Kovalchuk helped Avangard win the Gagarin Cup in the 2020/2021 season. After this season, he no longer had playing experience. At the moment, Kovalchuk is in free agent status.
Spartak has scored 45 points in 31 matches and is in first place in the KHL Western Conference standings.
