The bolded part is the key phrase. I used Google Translate here, don't shoot...this was sent out today after he signed with CSKA Moscow
fanzone.khl.ru/news/22309/
We know that you have arrived at CSKA last year, but have not been declared. As a result, missed the entire season, but for a young player is very bad. What happened?
- After returning from overseas, I tried to get in the "Locomotive" and Novokuznetsk "Metallurg", but failed. Only then I bought the rights to the army team, but I still play but could not. Problems with the "Winnipeg Jets" have not yet been solved, and before the winter I just do not have the right to go on the ice as he was disqualified NHL. Only in winter was acquitted of all claims, but by the time I was not in shape, aggravated old injuries, and I decided that the best approach for the new season in perfect shape. Now everything is fine, I work independently and forward to the fees.
- You are not the first who leaves the NHL, disagreeing with some decisions of the club. Known examples of Swedish, Finnish hockey players, but there came to disqualification. Why "Winnipeg" went on principle?
- This is a very long and unpleasant story. But probably worth it once tell then not to have any questions. I have to say, "Winnipeg" was right by writing me a disqualification. No question: I had a valid contract, which had to be worked out, I was sent to the farm club, and I refused. It should be noted that we "Jets" remained on good terms, understand each other. But I could not go to the farm club.
It's not some principles to say: I'm ready for the NHL, and you send me to the farm club. No, it's not so. In the season before last I got there a serious injury: after the collision I had a concussion so so strong that the consequences I have only recently stopped fighting. Eight months, I could not play and exercise. Will fly first two weeks, returned to "St. John", but after twenty minutes of exercise, I began again headache. Thought to pass, but did not pass.
head ached so that within a month I could only sleep two or three hours a day. Strange sensations. Like a basketball player squeezed your head and does not let go. It was a very depressed state. You can not do anything, just walk. No TV included, nor read, nor sleep normally. I could not even go to the stadium to watch the matches and teams. Fuss was immediately leads to severe headaches. It's really terrible condition. But then like everything was bouncing back. I was getting ready for the new season with "Winnipeg" held a training camp, played in preseason games. But I still decided to send to the farm club. And I did not go.
- But health problems was not.
- It was not. I do not know exactly how to formulate, but psychologically I could not play in the farm club. One idea that I find myself again in that city, to the team, where he got such a serious concussion, I was depressed. It would be difficult to perform in "St. John's."
- That is the problem was more inside?
- Yes. I love "Winnipeg" I was ready to play for this team, but I do understand that in the "St. John" I just can not exist. That's why I left.
- Psychologist accessed?
- It was. And consulted with him, because I had insomnia. Went home, since, being with family, quickly recovers. And when I then spent all summer in Winnipeg, I have not had any problems. However, I have decided to send to the farm club, where I just could not play.
- Now there are any problems?
- None. I passed the medical examination, contraindications for the game is not revealed. You say that bad to skip a year. I agree, but at the same time understand that this pause is gone for me.
- Well, well, let's talk about you. Let me quote your old interview that you gave to the North American press. "Russia - it's not mine," - said you go overseas. How so?
- It was because of the style of hockey. You do not forget that in the CHL I have not played, but went to one of the tournaments in North America with the junior team. And I so liked their game, their style, that I realized - my. So that his words do not refuse. I like it overseas hockey. But about the country, I did not say anything bad. This is my homeland. Incidentally, I was in America, faced with the fact that I was asked to compare the NHL and KHL. What type of benefits in North America. I always refused to answer. Like, guys, how can I answer this question, because I have not played the KHL, and the NHL, too, let's next question.
- Could play in the CHL. Your departure turned scandalous. Novokuznetsk you wish to see in your composition.
- Before leaving for the whole year training with the first team, but in 16 years I had no right to play in the CHL. Two places for young occupied Dmitry Orlov and Maxim Kitsyn, and drive them out of it was impossible. Later heard what words I rushed back, but he never criticized any club or city. It was my choice. Yes, you can, stay at home, I would play next season. And, maybe, and would not play. How can you predict anything? I just did as he entered.
- You pay 800 thousand rubles of compensation?
- I did not, thankfully.
- But many believe that three years in junior leagues - a waste of time.
- Again, I can say that I lost, and that he had purchased? And how many cases where young players were not given a chance in the League? I have not lost anything, it seems to me, and gained tremendous experience.
- I looked at the city, where you played through electronic cards. It's natural villages, where you can go crazy.
- Uh-huh. Saginaw - real village, but in Barry was better: 45 minutes by car - and you're in Toronto, and this is a very big city. But you're right, I was in very specific places. And if in Saginaw I was focused on hockey, here in St. John's was not at all creepy. Once I get up, going to the gym and go out I can not. Snow fell so much that the door did not open. Waiting for the utility dig up. Nyufaulend Island, where the farm club "Winnipeg" beautiful in the summer, there are many tourists. But winter is not a place where you want to spend time.
- Always interested in the question whether there is a lot of dog breeds nyufaulend?
- Decently. Not to say that they run in packs, but quite a lot. But generally the most difficult in St. John's - this weekend. You just do not know what to do. And once we were in the city for three days of light. Winter. Imagine winter, early dark, no light. Slept in winter jackets - cold though. To us and fly something not everyone could, due to snowstorms airport did not accept.
- I'm embarrassed that you initially called power forward, but I did not find fights.
- No one fights and was not, though rivals jumped. Fortunately, we in the "Saginaw" was a normal fighter Cody Sol, who solved all the problems. I remember once I had a body-check and see that I was on the other end of the site carried a fighter. Well, I think they arrived. But here with bench jumps Cody and intercepts tafgaya. Cool guy!
- From the junior team you expelled with Kirill Kabanov. As we found out later the coach Mikhail Vasiliev, Kabanov took without asking nuts on the table.
- Oh, those fees were generally dreadful, there's a lot happening, and what he does not want. We've even been accused that we took to the ice in helmets different from others.
- By the way, why?
- There was nothing in this disregard for the partners, as we talked about. I came with Cyril to collect one of the last to get the equipment, and we provide great helmets. My size is S, and there was L. You know what that means? What you helmet eye climbs. And you came to the first practice in his equipment. Then the receptionist found us a suitable size, and the conflict was resolved.
- So, what at the meeting? You also took the nuts without permission?
- No. I sat there and said nothing. Listened to coach, I realized that I was expelled and left.
- You know that now Vasiliev system CSKA? He heads the "Red Army."
- I know, we had already seen and talked. I have no anger, no. The coach decides who to take to the tournament, but someone - no.
- At the Junior World Championships in Canada, you took the second place. But I heard that you went to the finals with the strongest hand injury.
- Even in the match against the Czechs I got the puck in the hand. Was just a hell of pain. But what to say, I have already grown a third arm.
- How is it?
- Well, lump was enormous. I tried to recover, received injections, but not getting any better. And could miss the final, I would not say one word. But I did not consider it right to throw the partners in such a moment.
- Evaluate on a ten-school pain in the arm during the finals.
- Ten. Could take the puck, but could not keep her, he could not throw. Focused on something else: the change I had short, but the guys were able to relax. Closed zone blocking an opponent to take a position prevented him. Do what you can with one hand.
