World hockey champion Sushinsky said that Radulov did not want to knock out Zykov’s teeth
The world champion in the Russian national hockey team Maxim Sushinsky appreciated the actions of the Ak Bars forward Alexander Radulov, who knocked out several teeth to the SKA striker Valentin Zykov. It is reported by RT.
According to the ex-hockey player, the player of the Kazan team did not want to injure the opponent. “There is nothing to complain about him. There was no rudeness in his actions. Please note that Alexander did not raise his elbow and did not move his arms. As he rolled, so he rolled, ”said Sushinsky. According to him, what happened can be described as an accident.
Earlier, the actions of Radulov were appreciated by the former head coach of the Russian national team Vladimir Plushev. According to him, the Ak Bars player did not break the rules.
Zykov was injured on February 3 in a Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) regular season game. At the 24th second of the meeting, the player of the St. Petersburg club tried to take the puck away from Radulov, but he met him with a forceful reception, hitting his head with his shoulder. Subsequently, it turned out that the striker had lost several teeth.
