 | Sergei Cherkas: No one at SKA disgraced Marchenko. He was lucky that he got into the club system, where he was prepared to the level of North American requirements10-05-2024 |
Sergei Cherkas commented on Kirill Marchenko in the NHL match with Carolina (4:3 B).
The forward, who plays for Columbus, previously played in the KHL for SKA.
– Nothing surprising with Marchenko. He played great for SKA too. And they transferred him to SKA-Neva not because he played poorly, but because he was getting ready to leave. It was decided to send him to a farm club.
I think the SKA system needs to be thanked for preparing such a player, he is proving himself in the NHL.
– What do you mean exiled? I don`t agree with this. If a player is going to leave, what is the point of training him in the team? He will take someone`s place in it.
Marchenko had playing time in SKA. It was used to the fullest; no one abused it, as some people think. But when information spread that the player was going to North America, he was removed from the roster.
Maybe Kirill was offered to sign a new contract. He could have refused. If a person is determined to leave, there is no point in keeping him in the squad.
- It can’t, but it will show it. He`s a gaming guy. “He was lucky to get into the SKA system, where they prepared him to the level of North American requirements, ” said the former goalkeeper and coach of SKA.
