At the hockey club SKA want to achieve a balance between young and experienced players, says expert Yevgeny Artyukhin .
Several experienced hockey players joined SKA in the off-season: Mikhail Grigorenko, Sergei Plotnikov, Sergei Andronov. On Wednesday, the military club announced the signing of a four-year contract with Evgeny Kuznetsov.
— Can we say that this off-season SKA has turned towards experienced players?
— In recent years, the team was young, a lot of guys were recruited, there was a lot of rotation. Now, as I understand it, they want to find a balance between young and experienced players. And it seems to be working well. Let’s see how the new ones show themselves, it will be a reboot for them. A new team, a team with tasks – it will be a good motivation. We’ll see, because as we know, anything can happen. Even if you have a great team, you can be knocked out of the playoffs because of some banal nuances. Last season, Magnitogorsk surprised us all; no one bet on them at the beginning of the championship. So many factors play a role. This year’s championship will also be interesting, ”Artyukhin told RB Sport.
