Znarok is a mature person and is capable of making his own choices. He has been without a job. The appointment will help Matvei Michkov and Ivan Fedotov. It’s good to have your people in the team. Znarok has extensive experience and knows both Russian hockey and European hockey. This will undoubtedly be an advantage for Philadelphia.
Previously, Znarok has worked with the national teams of Latvia and Russia, as well as clubs like HC MVD, Dynamo Moscow, SKA, Spartak, and Ak Bars. Since 2022, he had been without a club. In 2018, he led the Russian team to victory at the Olympic Games, and in 2014, he was a world champion.
