Former defender “Spartacus” and Sochi Nikita Shchitov appreciated the signing of the red and white contract with the former forward of several National Hockey League (NHL) clubs Mikhail Maltsev .
This season, Maltsev, 25, played for the Los Angeles Kings’ farm club, Ontario Reign. The Russian has 21 matches, 4 goals and 10 assists.
— I don’t know how Maltsev will be used at Spartak. Someone will have to sacrifice, Kovalchuk also appeared there. Most likely they will be placed in a single unit. The question is who will be sacrificed, it is not for nothing that they invited him from the USA to sit on the bench. The acquisition is interesting not only for Spartak, but for the entire league. The coaching staff will help him open up here to return to the NHL. Now it will be even more interesting to see Spartak how the team will show itself. Now the Spartak team is in first place in the West, I think this season it can compete for the Gagarin Cup,” Shchitov said, as quoted by Legalbet.
