Razin – a chance for Severstal! Shocking Coach Helps Problem Club – KHL News – Hockey

Andrei Razin returns on the KHL. And that's good news. Especially for Severstal. Because in November, I outright physically felt the twilight gathering on the Cherepovets' club.

The director, Aleksey Koznev, was sacked from the club. Then head coach Alexander Gulyavtsev was fired. Then came general manager Valery Zelepukin with the remains of the coaching staff. The other day, we found ourselves literally the day before in the chess list. Experienced defensemen Denis Kulyash and striker Alexander Bumagin found themselves on the chess list.

Although the thesis sat down to write about the half-life in a hockey club! Moreover, in November, with this purge of personnel, Severstal only won one victory in nine shootout matches against Admiral, who is even weaker in the overall championship standings.

And suddenly Razin. Law some an unexpected ray of light in this darkness slipping into a famous team. Of course, I do not think that the young coach will be able to bring back the cherepovchan again playoffs and go through the first round. Before the start of the season, their coaches had to face such a task, which was clearly unbearable for the current team.

But Razin is, as they say, at least Something! This is a clue that the club has not accepted the hopeless position from abroad and the farewell to the KHL. And maybe just for the pleasure of seeing Something to fix.

In addition, Andrei Vladimirovich has enough experience. Nevertheless, he managed to work in the KHL at Avtomobilist and Yugra. More a bit in the admiral. And he went to coaches persistently and gradually. Starting with children's teams and through the VHL.

But most importantly, Razin is not an indifferent man. He lives the success of his team's problems. And the experience of his failures, even too hot before the fights with the mentors of the opponents and the virulent remarks to the judges. And this indifference is what Severstal needs most now. Because the hands of his players have fallen. Cherepovchane scored the least in the league.

I am also happy that one of the coaches of the new wave has returned to the KHL. After all, a strange thing! Young specialists Vyacheslav Butsaev and Peteris Skudra have played in the championship. And where are they ?!

At least Razin came back.
