Honored coach of Russia Vladimir Krikunov believes that Romain Rotenberg must continue to work as head coach of SKA St. Petersburg.
On Monday, SKA lost to Avtomobilist with a score of 4:5 in the fifth match of the second round of the KHL playoffs and ended its participation in the Gagarin Cup.
— SKA is one of the youngest teams in the KHL. Despite Avtomobilist’s defeat, I think Rotenberg should stay in his position. The Army team faced a lot of difficulties in the current playoffs – injuries and very strange refereeing, when the team attacks more and at the same time plays in the minority more often. But the most important thing is that there are a lot of young people in SKA, they are trusted and they are gaining experience in the KHL.
Believe me, for a young person, playing in one of the strongest clubs in the league is a great experience and great prospects. SKA has a completely correct strategy for student development, an excellent club vertical that allows guys to grow. At a time when many clubs are banking on foreign players, SKA is developing Russian players. This is the future of our hockey,” Krikunov quotes the Championship.
