Sports director “Metallurgy” Evgeny Biryukov said that the Magnitogorsk club is counting on the Canadian striker Scott Wilson .
In the current season of the FONBET KHL Championship, the 32-year-old Canadian scored 7 (4+3) points in 25 matches.
— Should we wait until the deadline for a new foreigner on the team?
– I don’t know, anything is possible. It all depends on the hockey players themselves and the position of their teams. It is impossible to predict whether there will be exchanges or not.
— There are rumors that they want to trade Wilson. It’s true?
— Scott is part of our team, he works and plays. We’re counting on him, it’s not for nothing that he won the Stanley Cup. Wilson ended up on the team for a reason, everyone looks at the stats. Yes, there are difficult moments because of adaptation, but now Scott is working with us and scoring good goals,” Biryukov said, as quoted by Metaratings.ru.
Metallurg is in fifth place in the Eastern Conference standings with 34 points.
