Predicting the factors boosting the Hawks and the elements hindering their progress.
The hockey season is upon us, and Omsk's Avangard team is ready to make a splash. Tonight, they take on Ak Bars, marking the start of an exciting season.
The team's roster is almost complete, with the exception of McLeod. Avangard has been making significant investments in contract terminations, new signings, parties, uniform updates, and the farm team restructuring. The club's aim is clear - to secure a strong position in the KHL for the upcoming season.
The future of Omsk hockey could be significantly impacted by Avangard's performance. The team is seen as the clear favourite for this season, but they will face stiff competition. The regular season consists of 68 games, followed by playoffs, and every game is important. Guy Boucher, the team's coach, emphasizes that every game is crucial and the players should give it their all.
In the goalie department, Nikita Serebryakov had a strong performance in the previous half year, while Andrei Mishurov, the first goalie, did not show the most confident play in the Blinov Cup. The club has long been looking for a number one goalie who could secure the position in the net for several years.
Meanwhile, the promising young players under 25, such as Alexei Egorov, Artem Kulikovsky, Denis Malov, Egor Stepanov, Denis Pochivalov, and Kirill Tankov, could potentially move up to the main team. One player who has already shown his skills is Poturalski, who scored 2+1 in a friendly match against SKA in St. Petersburg. Guy Boucher praises Poturalski's skills and potential.
On the business side, an ad placement has been secured on Om1 Omsk. The "Omsk Wings" are also restructuring to become their own franchise, with a focus on winning in the VHL.
The playoffs will wrap up in late May, and the goals for the season are high for both the main team, the farm team, and the juniors. Avangard fans are eagerly awaiting tonight's game against Ak Bars, and the team's performance could set the tone for the rest of the season. Let's cheer them on!
