Head coach Bob Hartley has decided to end his career in the Continental Hockey League (KHL) in Russia after four seasons at the helm of Avangard Omsk.
Posted yesterday at 10:49 p.m.
In an interview with the RDS network, the 61-year-old man announced that he was making a final cross on his overseas career. With a Gagarin Cup championship in the bank, he retires with a sense of accomplishment.
He is also extremely proud to have been able to share this unique experience with Jacques Cloutier, his lifelong friend.
Even if his Russian experience ended a little fishtail because of the situation in Ukraine and the pandemic situation, Hartley takes stock of a positive passage in Russia.
In the short term, he wants to take time for himself and his family, but he will still continue to intervene in the media.
