Former SKA hockey player Maxim Rybin believes that the newcomer to the St. Petersburg club Evgeny Kuznetsov is a decoration of the Continental Hockey League.
SKA announced the signing of Kuznetsov to a four-year contract on July 31. The 32-year-old forward previously played for Traktor Chelyabinsk, Washington, where he won the Stanley Cup, and Carolina.
— We will not judge SKA’s prospects based on the first match, but Kuznetsov is a master who must score and lead the team. SKA has a very strong squad on paper, but Kuznetsov is the jewel of our entire league, not just SKA, “Metaratings.ru quotes Rybin.
Earlier, Kuznetsov scored a goal in the match against Metallurg (4:5 OT) at the start of the new season of the FONBET KHL Championship.
