Hockey agent Alexey Dementyev said that the Russian forward “Washington » Evgeny Kuznetsov could miss the NHL game against Arizona due to the club’s plans to trade the player.
Kuznetsov did not play in the game, which ended in a 6-0 victory for the Coyotes. The head coach of the capital team, Spencer Carbery, said before the match that the Russian would not play against Arizona due to a “mental reboot.”
— The allegations about Kuznetsov’s performance that were leaked to the media have been heard for a long time. And you can’t fool the fans. Everyone is waiting for his fiery and unconventional play that adorns hockey. The player was removed from the team, the reasons may be different, to the point that at the moment the details of the trade are being discussed. There have been cases where a player was taken out of the pre-match warm-up right before the match so that he would not get injured and the exchange would take place.
Evgeniy still has a contract valid until 2025, and in any case, he will have to show productive play in the near future in order to be able to count on a worthy new contract.
From the point of view of Evgeniy’s suitors, I think that strategically they will be interested in bringing him closer to St. George’s, when most of this year’s contract is paid, “Dementyev said at the Championship.
Kuznetsov played 19 regular games in the NHL this season, scored four goals and gave five assists.
