- Sergey, are you satisfied that you returned to the team?
- Of course, I'm glad that I was entrusted with playing in the national team. Now it remains to prove that I can benefit.
- Did not ask why you are not attracted to the team?
- So this is not a question for me. Perhaps I did not show the game that the coaching staff expected from me.
- It is believed that the Eurotour matches are the selection of hockey players for the World Cup. Do you think you have a chance to get to the main tournament of the year?
- Of course, I would like to get to the championship. But now we have another goal - to win the Swedish hockey games. And if we talk about the World Cup, now it is probably still not clear who will be in the squad and who will not.
- Different hockey players are invited to all stages of the Eurotour. It turns out that the world championship will not be a very played team?
- It’s too early to talk about the championship. He is still far away. And we will have time to prepare. In addition, there are already simulated combinations. For example, the Kazan troika.
- And what can the team count on?
- In the first place.
- What are your relations with Vyacheslav Bykov?
- Normal.
- You were invited as if at the wrong time. When you shone in the national championship, you were not invited to the national team. But the name is now, when there has been a decline in "Chemist" in general and in yours in particular. But if you play unsuccessfully at the Swedish Games, you will be “uncoupled” from the championship.
- The national team coach is not to blame for the fact that the peak of the form at Khimik has passed, and the Moscow Region team is losing. There are several reasons for this club performance. But all this must be left outside the national team. I will try on the Swedish Games. And it doesn’t matter whether I’m tired or not tired.
- Are you satisfied with your partners in the national team? Nevertheless, it depends on them how you will prove yourself in the tournament.
- You know, I went to the national team, where all the hockey players are of a good level. Now they put me to Kuryanov and Mirnov. Very strong players.
- Vyacheslav Bykov says that he did not speak with you individually. And does not plan to do it. Would you like to talk with a trainer and find out all the questions?
- If there really are any unresolved issues, then I am ready for a dialogue. I had a desire to meet with the coach when I was not invited to the team. When they said that I rejected the offer from the national team.
“Is it easy to get through to you now?” The phone has not been disconnected?
- Representatives of the national team came to the club for me.
- How did you meet former CSKA partners called up to the national team?
- Yes, everything is fine, do not worry.
