Agent Shumi Babaev, representing the interests of the attacker Evgenia Kuznetsova said several NHL clubs remain interested in the hockey player.
Last week, Carolina terminated the contract with 32-year-old Kuznetsov. According to , the forward will sign a four-year deal with SKA St. Petersburg. Kuznetsov is a Stanley Cup winner with Washington.
— Why didn’t Kuznetsov manage to stay in the NHL?
— There is still interest in Evgeny Kuznetsov from 15 NHL clubs.
— He himself did not want to stay in North America?
“He hasn’t made his final decision yet.” It’s more likely that he’ll go to the KHL. A person wants to play hockey and have fun, be useful and win. There are many factors here.
— There is an opinion that Kuznetsov is tired of North American hockey and North American coaches…
“He just wants to play hockey and be confident.” He still has a reserve for many years. Kuznetsov is in good physical shape and has not even said his penultimate word in hockey. It is strange to say that he chose to play Russian hockey over North American hockey. Many teams abroad now play Soviet hockey – look at the speeds and passes. It’s just that if there was interest in clubs that count on him and in which he can show his best qualities, he would consider them the same way,” Babaev was quoted as saying by RB Sport.
