Former Russian national hockey player Yevgeny Artiukhin believes that Kazan “AK bars” under the direction of Zinetuly Bilyaletdinov this season he showed boring hockey.
On Friday, Ak Bars lost to Avtomobilist (1:2) and was eliminated from the Gagarin Cup, losing in the 1/8 finals with a score of 1 to 4. The previous season, the Kazan team, under the leadership by Bilyaletdinov, had reached the final.
— Did you have the feeling that Bilyaletdinov was tired? Maybe. It’s difficult to evaluate a coach. I’ve never worked in this field myself, so it’s difficult to speak from the outside. It’s better to let others appreciate it. The hockey played by Ak Bars seemed boring to me – and not only to me,” Artyukhin quotes in the Championship.
