— Kuznetsov went to a Zenit basketball game this weekend. How is his health?
– It’s getting better and better. Now we will talk to the doctors. Kuznetsov is training very well, we are very satisfied with the way he works. I’ll tell you frankly: very soon we will see Evgeniy on the ice.
— There is a four-game home series coming up. The main match will take place on October 17 against CSKA. Can Kuznetsov attend this meeting?
– Everything is possible. This option cannot be excluded, but the situation should not be forced. We need to check how things are going with our health. We need everything to heal as much as possible to prevent the situation from happening again. That’s the only question here. Kuznetsov’s wording is the same as in the NHL – “day to day.” Maybe there will be good news for the match against CSKA,” Rotenberg told .
