Athletistic / Hockey. PHC CSKA defender Colby Williams explained how he spends his free time in Russia. The 28-year-old Canadian has been playing in the KHL since 2022.
“I’m alone for most of the season, but a girl came to see me for the whole month of December, it’s great. We spend time with her between matches, we walk around the city. She’s in Russia for the first time, so it’s a special time for both of us, we explore Moscow. At Christmas the capital of Russia is beautiful. We want to catch everything and after the interview we will go for a walk on the streets, will admire its lights, Christmas trees and other various decorations. It’s amazing, and the buildings here are so majestic – wherever you go, you will always see something new We have already seen Red Square, St. Basil, walked along the soaring bridge, visited several cathedrals, walked near Moscow State University and looked at the Cathedral of Christ the Savior.
Last year I decided that in my free time I would walk and explore Russian cities. A hockey career is short and you don’t know when you’ll get the chance to visit these places again. I like learning new things, discovering the KHL and Russia. I don’t want to regret years later that I only visited arenas and hotels. Your country has many other beautiful cities, not just Moscow and St. Petersburg. They are found both in the center of the country and in the east. For example, such as: Yaroslavl, Nizhny Novgorod, Kazan,” “Championship” quotes Williams as saying.
This season, Colby Williams played 36 games and scored 7 (0+7) points in the goal+assist system with an overall rating of -1.
