Olympic hockey champion Valery Kamensky believes that the Stanley Cup winner Evgeny Kuznetsov could become the leader of SKA St. Petersburg.
On Wednesday, SKA announced the signing of Kuznetsov to a four-year contract. The 32-year-old forward previously played for Traktor Chelyabinsk, the Washington Capitals and the Carolina Hurricanes.
— Kuznetsov’s return is a plus for the KHL and the young people who will watch him. He has already won the Stanley Cup, the World Championship, he has a lot of experience, a great career. Evgeny can become a leader and help the club in the fight for the Gagarin Cup. Kuznetsov is an adult, a family man, he wants the best for himself and his family. Everyone makes mistakes, but he is strong and can certainly fix everything.
Naturally, Traktor fans wanted Kuznetsov to return to Chelyabinsk, but he himself chooses where he is better. There is no point in judging him. I think he will remain a resident of Chelyabinsk for the rest of his life. Perhaps he will finish (his career) in his hometown, “Metaratings.ru quotes Kamensky.
The new KHL season starts on September 3.
