Head Coach “Sochi” Andrei Nazarov shared his expectations from the start of the Fonbet Championship of the Continental Hockey League (KHL ).
In the opening match of the new season, Sochi will host Novosibirsk on August 2 “Siberia” .
I won’t say I’m worried. There comes a time when you realize that guys are good with mood and physique. And how luck will turn – no one knows. From then on, you are more worried: how will it turn today, left or right? This moment, no one knows and will never know. Hockey is a game of bars, of moments, that is to say that luck was present and is present now, there is no escape. Let’s hope luck benefits the brave.
In our pre-season, everything is going according to plan. Like I said, they stopped chasing guys, they started moving better, they let someone rest. We won the game, the goalkeepers are great. We are preparing for September 2, we are playing with the same Sibir. Guys, come to the game, there will be a fire match! Nazarov said in a video posted on the club’s Youtube channel.
Last season, Sochi failed to qualify for the playoffs, finishing 11th in the Western Conference following regular season results.
