Attack “Ak Barsa” Riley Barber admitted that he still had to adapt to the Kazan team’s style of play.
On November 24, the American striker joined Ak Bars after an exchange of “Barysa” . On Thursday, the Kazan team defeated Avtomobilist on their ice with a score of 3:2 in the KHL regular season.
— A difficult match, it’s good that we found the path to victory. It’s not scary that I can’t score yet, the team wins – that’s the main thing. It’s my second match, it’s clear that it will take time to play with my teammates. But it’s great that they help me adapt to everything as quickly as possible, on and off the ice. The team plays a lot with the puck, I have to adapt a little to this style.
— Not everyone knows you in the KHL yet. What kind of player are you?
— I like to play with the puck, combine and, of course, shoot. I cast by touch as well as with brushes. I use every opportunity, the main thing is that the puck hits the target,” Barber said, as quoted by Metaratings.ru.
