Dynamo Moscow sports director Alexey Sopin spoke about the striker’s tough playing style Max Comtois .
This season, the 25-year-old Canadian scored 15 (6+9) points in 23 games and received 22 penalty minutes.
“I think he gets a lot of attention.” It seems to me that the judges consider him a provocateur and sometimes do not react to micro-violations against him. There was a point during the trip where they played roughly against Max and broke the rules, but the judges didn’t react because they were suspicious of him.
It’s understandable. A guy came in and started playing this kind of hockey this summer… Let’s be honest: when our team played against the Canadians or the Czechs, we didn’t like it when they played against us like that. Bad guy, get under your skin, constant clashes. And then Max started playing in the same style against our opponents, so the judges sometimes turn a blind eye to the actions against him,” Sopin was quoted as saying by “Championship”.
