Former coach “Tractors” Ravil Gusmanov shared his feelings about the appointment of Canadian specialist Benoit Groux as head coach of the Chelyabinsk team.
Last season, Traktor, under the leadership of Alexei Zavarukhin, reached the semi-finals of the Gagarin Cup. The club announced Grou’s appointment in May.
— How surprised were you by Gru’s appointment at Traktor?
– To a certain extent, this is a surprise. But the club decided to follow this path of development, to introduce North American elements into our hockey. It will be interesting for the fans. Let’s see what comes of it. I always wish Traktor only success and victories.
“There has long been the opinion that an external trainer cannot achieve results with Traktor.”
“At Traktor they are accustomed to another type of hockey, Belousov’s, so it will be interesting to see how a foreign specialist will prove himself,” Gusmanov said, as quoted by RB Sport.
