One of the best goalkeepers in the world Evgeniy Nabokov signed a four-year contract with SKA yesterday.
KHL president and chairman of SKA board of directors Alexandr Medvedev commented on Nabokov’s move.
"Nabokov’s move to KHL is great event for SKA and the whole Russian hockey", Medvedev said to sport press. "Our country still remembers his wonderful play at the World Championship in Quebec. I have no doubts that he will be one of the main candidates to position of Russia’s first-choice goalie".
"Our agreement is designed for the whole Olympic cycle – four years, and we hope that Nabokov will play for the Russian team in Sochi".
"I hope that his decision to join us will influence Ilya Kovalchuk".
"We keep an eye on Russian players in NHL, so when it became known that San Jose decided not to extend contract with Nabokov, we informed Evgeniy that we wait for his return to KHL".
