Head Coach “Avant-garde” Sergei Zvyagin said that it did not seem to him that against the aggressor Rida Boucher hockey players SKA played hard.
On Monday, “Avangard” lost to SKA Saint Petersburg with a score of 1:4 in the FONBET KHL championship. In August, 30-year-old Boucher was absent for a month due to injury; the match against SKA was his first of the season.
— Now all the opponents are strong. We waited for the doctor to give us the green light to release Boucher. It was not that Reed had to go to SKA, it coincided with the timing. Boucher had been looking forward to getting into the game for a long time. He had a full training in contact with other guys, and after the doctor gave the green light. It didn’t seem like Reed was played hard. The game was fast and uncompromising, and I didn’t see any dirt, “Zvyagin was quoted as saying by the correspondent.
In the next match, Avangard will meet Lokomotiv on September 25.
