22.11.2024

Reaktor player Makar Kurbatov speaks with the media after a following 1–6 loss against Mamonty Ugry.
– We need to work on defensive play, especially in our own crease, and be more active in the opponent's. I think this moment played a huge role in our defeat.
– You scored your first JHL goal.
– To be honest, nothing compares to a winning locker room. A goal is a goal, but the team's defeat did not allow let me to be happy about the goal scored.
– It is obvious that you have become more confident in your abilities, and apparently adjusted to the team. What are your overall emotions from the league, from the team?
– I am incredibly happy to be here, in Nizhnekamsk. We have a great team, so there were no difficulties in getting into the game. At first it was unusual, a different speed, a different game, but gradually I adjusted my game.
