Sergei Konkov, a two-time Gagarin Cup winner with Dynamo Moscow, believes that coaching experience Oleg Znarka will help Philadelphia hockey players.
Previously, Znarok joined the Flyers’ headquarters, serving as a specialist in the development of European hockey players.
— What do you think about Oleg Znarok becoming a specialist in the development of European players in Philadelphia? Did you not find a job in the KHL or did you want to be closer to your family?
– It’s hard to say. I think that’s also the case, but the most important thing here is that it is in hockey that it will help guys pay attention to those aspects of the game that will help them progress. Naturally, I think that if there were options, he would consider them. If they were worth it, he would return to work and announce it in the press. The main thing is that the specialist is back in business. I am very happy about this, because Oleg Valerievich has something to share, he has experience, champion experience at different levels: in the championship and on the international stage. There is a hockey superstar in his family (Znark’s son-in-law is New York Rangers forward Artemy Panarin – ed.), so he has a huge experience, “Konkov was quoted as saying by “Championship”.
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.
