Former Salavat striker Yulaev Danil Aimurzine spoke about his reaction to the death of a former teammate Rodrion Amirova .
In February 2022, Amirov was diagnosed with a brain tumor. The death of the 21-year-old hockey player was announced on August 14, 2023.
— I am a very emotional person, so this is a difficult subject for me. He was a good guy and a friend, even though we weren’t that close. We talked often and always went out to eat together. It is very unfortunate that this happened. “I’m very upset, so I don’t really want to comment on this,” Metaratings.ru quotes Aimurzin.
Amirov is a student of Salavat Yulaev. He has 10 goals and eight assists in 79 games in the KHL. In the 2020 NHL Draft, Amirov was selected 15th overall by Toronto. In April 2021, the Russian signed a three-year entry-level contract with the Canadian club.
