Sports director and general director of Dynamo Moscow Alexey Sopin said that by correcting the situation in the KHL, the club managed to avoid harsh measures.
Dynamo with 39 points is in third position in the standings of the FONBET KHL Western Conference Championship.
— After an unsuccessful start to the season, you said that shock therapy might even be necessary to correct the situation at Dynamo. Are you glad you never had to use this tool as a sports director?
– Certainly. You never want to go to the extreme of cutting players, placing them on the waiver wire, or making unpopular trades. This tool was partially used – combinations were changed, someone was removed from the team. When you’re taken out of the lineup and watching the game from the stands, it hits a hockey player’s pride hard. Therefore, to a certain extent, such methods were still used, but we managed to avoid really harsh methods,” Championship quotes Sopin.
In the next match, Dynamo will host Lokomotiv Yaroslavl on Tuesday.
