Russian hockey coach Vyacheslav Bykov ruled out a return to hockey, saying he wanted to spend more time with his family.
— In life, you have to correctly place the accents and correctly feel your place in this world. Of course, hockey is my life, but when I was a player and coach, I worked a lot and did not always devote time to my family. My children have grown up, my grandchildren are growing up too. When they grow up, I should be there. This is what we live for. So it is important to understand what is valuable to you right now.
Now I am just a father and grandfather, and my children and grandchildren are my gold and wealth. Now they are my team, for whom I live. Of course, I was lucky to work with great hockey players and coaches, but I have already given everything to hockey. Now I have another, no less important mission. Now my family needs me more, “Bykov quotes Metaratings.ru.
Bykov is 64 years old; he previously worked as head coach of CSKA and coached the Russian national team, Salavat Yulaev and SKA. With the national team, Bykov won the World Championship twice and also won the Gagarin Cup with the clubs from Ufa and St. Petersburg.
