Athletistic / Hockey The new head coach of “Kunlun” Greg Ireland told how he feels in Russia.

Recall that in the next season the Chinese club will continue to play in Mytishchi near Moscow.

“I feel very comfortable here. There was no pressure from outside. I spoke to people who are already working in hockey here in Russia. And I prefer to believe them, not what they write in the press and on the Internet.

I myself studied the situation and found out what it really was, and I did not believe what bloggers and journalists say and write.

I came to Russia with pleasure and I feel really comfortable to work, stay and live here” said Championat.com quoting the Canadian.

Recall that the nomination of Ireland in the “Kunlun” became known in mid-July. In this position, he replaced the Canadian-Italian specialist Ivan Zanatta. Previously, Greg Ireland led some AHL clubs, as well as European “Lugano”, “Adler Mannheim” and “Bolzano”.

Last season, Kunlun Red Star finished the KHL regular season in last place in the Eastern Conference.
