American defender of Nizhny Novgorod “Torpedo” Keaton Thompson said he loved living in Russia.
Thompson played 26 matches in the current season of the FONBET KHL Championship, scored one goal and gave four assists. This is the first season in Russia for the 29-year-old American.
— When I spoke with Igor Larionov, he assured me that it was safe, clean and the prices were reasonable. I believed him. I don’t think he would have called me if the situation was bad.
I also asked other people. Everyone told me everything was fine here. They say all kinds of things in the newspapers, but I like Russia. Obviously there are different customs here that I’m still getting used to, but I like it all,” Thompson was quoted as saying by “Championship.”
