“Great job, difficult season, the team showed character. Sasha, as a leader and captain, led the team, we got a well-deserved exit in the playoffs. In the first round play with the Rangers , where Peter Laviolette works and all of Washington know his working methods, his demands and his style, there are no secrets here, the eighth team is the most dangerous, the Rangers probably understand this,” quotes Chistyakov.
