The CSKA striker spoke about the start of preparation for the season
— It feels great, everyone is happy to see each other! The first training session, we skated, played. The main thing is to feel the puck, we are slowly rolling in.
— Have you had enough time to rest since April 29?
— Yes (laughs). More than enough, I think everyone has already been training and skating on the sly. Someone went to the gym, so there are no problems with this. Everyone is rested and ready.
— It is clear that all the guys trained individually in the summer. But today, when you got together for the first time, there is a special feeling. Or is everything casual?
— Of course, other emotions. Team training is something completely different. There were also tests in the gym, the feelings are not casual at all. The first training is the first training.
— The coaching staff also gathered today for the first time. Did you have time to chat, did you miss each other?
— I repeat, everyone missed the teammates. I want to start a new season soon!
— The ice was the first, and how much did the coaches loaded you on the GPP? I presume, individual programs were sent out for the summer?
— Yes, programs were sent to us. Summer training is very important, you need to come ready to work with the team. Everyone were training, there is no difficulty in the loads. We are professional athletes, we know what to do in the summer. I won't say that there was something too complicated or unusual. Only planned preparation.
