Before “Columbus » Kirill Marchenko said that the historic feat of Russian players in the NHL regular season match against Boston will remain a good memory.
Columbus beat Boston 5-2 at home on Monday. Among the winners, Marchenko, Dmitry Voronkov, Egor Chinakhov and Ivan Provorov scored goals. For the first time in history, four Russians scored goals on the same team in an NHL game.
— This is a wonderful and memorable moment for all Russian players. This gives us confidence, but it is important that we have three points. If all the Russians scored and we lost, it wouldn’t be great.
—Are you surprised this has never happened before?
– Yes, I didn’t think about it. I knew there was a Russian Five in Detroit. There are a lot of Russians in a team, it’s great,” Marchenko said in a video interview published on the club’s website.
Columbus ranks 15th in the NHL Eastern Conference with 18 points in 23 games.
