Today, SKA convincingly played “Kunlun Red Star” with the result 5: 1, causing the 11th loss to the opponents in a row. Komarov, 34, stood out with two goals.

“Congratulations to Roman on his first victory as head coach. We got off to a good start today and it was important to win. Rothenberg is currently our head coach, whether or not he has another position. Our task is to listen to him and he is doing well, ”said Komarov.

“It simply came to our notice then. We respect him and he respects us. Everything is OK. He became a coach for some reason and he has been in hockey for a long time. Rothenberg is knowledgeable and we will help each other. We have a good coach and everything will be fine. The novel has its own style, because he can both reprimand and praise, ”revealed the hockey player.
