Former Spartak defender Nikita Shchitov believes that the attacker Mikhail Maltsev will strengthen the composition of the Moscow club.
Maltsev, 25, signed a contract with Spartak on Tuesday until the end of the current season. This season, the hockey player played for the Ontario Reign, which is the farm club of the Los Angeles Kings. The Russian has 21 matches, 4 goals and 10 assists.
— I think he’s a potentially strong newcomer. Maltsev will be reinforced by Spartak. Perhaps he will play alongside Ilya Kovalchuk, who will have a positive impact on his career and debut with the team.
I think the “red-whites” did well. They mobilized before the deadline. The team has a powerful coaching staff, it joins the race for the Gagarin Cup,” Shchitov quotes RB Sport.
Spartak is now the leader of the summary table of the regular Fonbet KHL championship. The Moscow team scored 56 points in 41 matches.
