Beijing Olympics silver medalist with the Russian national ice hockey team Ivan Fedotov said that during the Olympics he followed figure skating competitions.
The Russian team in the final of the Olympic tournament lost to the Finnish team (1:2).
– I won’t say that I like figure skating very much, but I follow the events in the general mass when news arrives. At the Olympics, I got to watch figure skating, because everyone on the Russian team was involved in one thing.
And it was also a great experience when many athletes from different sports work for the common cause of their country and it is possible to study each type in more depth. But at the same time, you don’t really hold on, because you are focused on your result and try not to spread your emotions too much,” Fedotov told Gazeta.ru.
Fedotov signed a rookie contract with NHL club Philadelphia Flyers in July 2022, but was drafted into the military for a year. After returning from service, he agreed a two-year deal with CSKA .
