Agent Vladimir Zorkin, representing the interests of the attacker “Siberia” Sergei Chirokov told that he was not surprised by the way the 38-year-old hockey player joined the Novosibirsk club.
In June, Siberia announced the signing of an agreement with the 38-year-old hockey player for one season. On Monday, Shirokov will reach the 1,000 game mark in the Super League and KHL when he takes the ice in a game against Ak Bars Kazan.
— To be honest, I’m not surprised how Sergei joined the Sibir team. He has the Olympic Games, the World Championships and the NHL games behind him. In all the clubs where he played, he was always a leader and united the teams. I have no doubt that he will succeed in “Sibir” – that’s why he was invited to the Novosibirsk club,” Zorkin told .
This season, Shirokov played 10 matches for Siberia, in which he scored eight (6+2) points.
