hockey specialist Leonid Weisfeld in an interview with expressed the opinion that the elite players of Yaroslavl Lokomotiv Not now.
Lokomotiv won twice in five KHL Fonbet Championship matches, lost three times and scored 5 points.
— Before the game with SKA, Lokomotiv is outside the playoff zone. Why didn’t the mighty Yaroslavl team start again?
– For many years I heard about a strong Yaroslavl school. But if you analyze his work, it turns out that this school does not prepare brilliant players. Take Gavrikov. Vladislav was a good defender, he moved to SKA and became an elite player there. And, say, Rafikov or Yelesin, who were not inferior to him in terms of potential, remained at Lokomotiv and did not progress. The same can be said of attackers. Korshkov, Kraskovsky and Polunin should be the best trio in the country, and not just in good standing with Lokomotiv. But people there seem to stop in development.
At the same time, the Yaroslavl team praised their talented Likhachev to Amur. And the 21-year-old has already scored three goals there, scores goals in every game. And at Lokomotiv not a single player has scored three goals yet. Is that why they didn’t leave him?
Lokomotiv have become a good solid team in recent years. But no flight. Chinakhov, Gritsyuk, Sorkin grew up in other teams… Brilliant players appear, while in Yaroslavl there is a good level of quality, but there are no elite players. So Shalunov came there, becoming CSKA’s best playoff marksman, and also “dissolved,” Weisfeld told .
On Wednesday, the Yaroslavl team will host SKA on their ice. The match will start at 7:30 p.m. (Moscow time).
