Canadian Defense Agent Colby Williams Andrei Matveyev explained why the hockey player stayed CSKA .
Earlier, the CSKA press service announced the two-year extension of the contract with defender Williams.
— Why did Williams extend his contract with CSKA, since the salaries there are low and the bonus is only for the Gagarin Cup?
— Colby really liked it at CSKA. He doesn’t chase money, but wants to play for a team that strives to win every game and win the Cup. That’s all he cares about.
— CSKA still has the highest competition, especially with the arrival of players from North America. Even Dietz was traded, are you afraid that despite the two-year contract there are not many guarantees?
— This problem can happen in any team and league in the world. If you play badly, you will be traded, so you have to maintain your level. Even Sergachev was recently traded, although we don’t know all the reasons. Williams obviously has high hopes of winning the Cup in his two years at CSKA and he is excited about it. Colby wants to help the team achieve its main goal. Moscow is an amazing city where Colby feels most comfortable.
— How can Williams help CSKA? What are his strengths?
“Colby likes to play on both sides of the field, he is a two-way defender. He is a team player. He is proud of his defensive game and focuses primarily on it, and he is always ready to support the attack. Colby has confidence in the KHL and intends to progress,” the agent is quoted by Metaratings.ru.
In the 2023/24 season, Williams, 29, played 54 FONBET KHL regular season games and scored 11 (1+10) points with a utility rating of “+6”.
