— How important is it for Omsk to have a new arena?
– Very important. At least what is provided there is real craftsmanship. It’s nowhere in Russia. Even people who don’t like hockey will still come to the arena – just to watch it. And maybe they will like our sport.
– Due to construction, Avangard will start the regular season with 12 away matches. Do you include this nuance in your preparation?
– Yes, after the tournament in St. Petersburg we will return to Omsk and try to live according to Moscow time so that we do not have to change our minds when traveling. Otherwise it will be hard.
Let’s see how we start, and then we’ll see. We don’t expect an easy life. But we have no other choice,” the coach said.
