Front SKA Arseniy Gritsiouk said he wasn’t afraid of criticism over a possible move to a National Hockey League (NHL) club.
In 2023, the hockey player left Avangard for SKA. Last season, Gritsyuk scored 38 (19+19) points in 50 KHL regular season games. In the playoffs, the 23-year-old forward scored 6 (4+2) points in 10 games.
– Oh… Moving from Omsk to St. Petersburg, I have already encountered such a wave of hatred and indignation that I think it will definitely not get worse (laughs). Of course, it’s a little scary to leave and hear a bunch of interjections and unflattering words addressed to you, but I still prefer not to think about it for now, “Gritsyuk was quoted as saying by RT.
Gritsyuk, 23, was drafted by New Jersey in 2019 in the fifth round, 129th overall.
