Evgeny Kuznetsov, a Russian winger, was reportedly unhappy with his current circumstances in Washington and sought a move. Since then, more time has gone, and we now have more information.

Kuznetsov has undoubtedly received some of the harshest feedback a team could receive on one of its members. According to rumors, the Russian athlete is unhappy in Washington and no longer enjoys playing sports.

In response, Sergei Fedotov, his agent, said:

“I have known Zhenya [Kuznetsov] for a very long time and are friends. There are people who are quite disciplined. Zhenya is not in this category. Zhenya from the category is closer to me if I don’t feel [inspired] from what I do, I will definitely look for opportunities to make me feel comfortable. It is an inner and mental state.”

Right now, Zhenya doesn’t have this [joy] from hockey, and Kuznetsov, without this recharge, without a spark, he’s not interested in anything. He wanted to change the team for a long time, he was tired in Washington, and also – not only aggravated, but in many respects it was influenced by the fact that Laviolette does not play the hockey that is typical for Evgeny Kuznetsov.” – Sergei Fedotov

“Now, he doesn’t have this joy from hockey… he just needs a change in scenery.”

“He just needs a change of scenery. He has a family, he has children, in this sense he is doing well. But for him to get more buzz from what he lives with, from hockey Now he doesn’t have this buzz.”

Given how well-liked Kuznetsov is in Washington, it is a sad thing to hear. Ideally, a deal can be reached that suits all parties, but for the time being, Kuznetsov is adamant about leaving Washington.

I grew up playing Ball and Roller Hockey day and night somewhat religiously throughout elementary and middle school. The two don't compare though when I lace up the skates and hit the ice. I live and breathe hockey beyond the perspective of "it's just a game" and I will gladly talk hockey for hours with anyone. Hockey is more than just a lifestyle, it's a culture of passionate people who make memories every time the puck is dropped. Hockey has not only helped me get through some of the hardest times in life but has created some of the best memories to date. Want to talk hockey with me? Shoot me an email: iburdetskiy@hookedonhockey.com and let's talk some hockey!
