Russian striker “Minnesota Wild” Kirill Kaprizov said that he had problems with performance at the start of the regular season of the National Hockey League (NHL) due to psychology. This was reported by Match TV.
“When we played three or four matches in which we failed to score, we had to try to stay positive and continue to play calmly without thinking about it,” Kaprizov explained. The striker also stressed that you need to learn to cope with such moments.
According to the player, he made assists, but still felt the pressure from the lack of goals. “So I began to drive myself, and as a result, in the usual moments, which I usually realize, not a normal throw comes out, nothing,” added Kaprizov.
The Russian forward was able to score the first goal only in the ninth match of this season. In total, Kaprizov has three goals and nine assists on his account in 14 regular season games.
