Head Coach SKA Romain Rotenberg said that striker Evgeny Kuznetsov experienced strong emotions during the meeting with his former club Traktor.
Sunday’s meeting of the regular season of the FONBET KHL Championship between SKA and Traktor took place in St. Petersburg and ended with a victory for the guests with a score of 3:0.
SKA announced the signing of Kuznetsov to a four-year contract on July 31. The 32-year-old forward previously played for Traktor, Washington, where he won the Stanley Cup, and Carolina.
— Kuznetsov played against his home team. Did you feel any special mood?
— Honestly, he was very worried. The Stanley Cup winner and top scorer was very worried. It was felt in his game. The whole team tried to calm him down. This is his personal experience. Thank God, no injuries. Kuznetsov will show the best in hockey, everything is ahead. We help Evgeniy as a whole and together we will continue to work to achieve results, “Rotenberg was quoted as saying by the correspondent.
In the next match, SKA will play at home against Lada on September 15.
