Head coach SKA Romain Rotenberg answered a question about the attacker’s condition Evgenia Kuznetsova who finished the FONBET KHL championship match with Severstal ahead of schedule.
SKA won at home with a score of 8:5. Kuznetsov was injured during the first period; he fought with Severstal defender Makar Fomin for the puck that was in the air. There was no contact between the opponents, but the SKA player suddenly grabbed his hand and then, accompanied by doctors, went to the grandstand room. Subsequently, Kuznetsov did not appear on the ice.
— How does Evgeny Kuznetsov feel? He left the ice in the first period.
— At the moment, we have no information. We don’t fully know his diagnosis. But we wish Evgeniy good health and hope he returns soon. But today we played for him, and this victory is dedicated to Kuznetsov.
— What was the reason for the DeAngelo-Pedan couple? Because Andrey speaks English well?
— When Andrey played in the Canadian junior league, he played very hard against Tony. DeAngelo remembers that. And so I decided to put them together. We are looking for connections. Together they scored 7 (0+7) points. It’s a good result for the first match. And it is very important that Andrei knows the language well, ”reports a correspondent, reporting Rotenberg’s words.
SKA won its fifth consecutive victory, scored 13 points and moved to second place in the Western Conference.
