Two-time Olympic champion Alexander Kozhevnikov told that the coach Oleg Znark who joined the Philadelphia NHL club headquarters, needed something of a career reboot.
Znarok has joined Philadelphia’s headquarters, as shown by the coaching roster on the team’s official website. According to the application, the 61-year-old specialist is responsible for “European player development and scouting consultation” in Philadelphia.
– He needed to reboot, he did. Some people need fifteen minutes for that, others years. The idea is good, thank God, he found his place. With such a name and such practice, Znarok is a valuable acquisition for Philadelphia. With such experience, he will be useful there.
“Maybe Michkov and Fedotov will be helped in this. God grant that they have desire, that the players have character, otherwise they would not play. Let’s see what Znarka can do in a foreign country,” Kozhevnikov told .
Previously, Znarok worked with the national teams of Latvia and Russia, as well as HC MVD, Dynamo Moscow, SKA, Spartak and Ak Bars, and since 2022 he has been without a club. In 2018, with the Russian team, he became the winner of the Olympic Games, and four years earlier, the world champion.
