Athletistic / Hockey. SKA forward Mikhail Grigorenko shared the details of his adaptation to the St. Petersburg club. He also answered the question of how the style of play of Nema’s military team differs from that of CSKA Moscow.
“I don’t want to compare the two styles of CSKA and SKA. In my current club we try to play fast, not to make empty cross passes, not to lose the puck. We try to shoot more and throw the pucks behind the opponent’s back.
Have I adapted to Roman Rotenberg’s requirements? It is clear that I am still trying to understand everything. Not everything always goes well, but I continue to work and try to listen to the instructions and carry out the installation,” Grigorenko said, as quoted by Metaratings.ru.
