Nikita Tryamkin: "I'm glad that I returned to Ekaterinburg"
Nikita Tryamkin returns from Canada to Yekaterinburg to play for the "Motorist". In an exclusive interview with the EAN, the hockey player told how and why he took this decision, that he thinks about today's game of "drivers" and whom he visited first of all in our city.

Do not you think that your transition from the NHL is a "game for a slide"?
"Who said it's worse here?" I do not think this is a step back. The decision about our joint future was taken by the whole family. Therefore, I do not think that this step "lowered itself".
...
At one of the recent press conferences, you said that "they just wanted to play hockey." Your transition to "Motorist" is associated with the desire to get more gaming practice?
Yes. During the season I was not happy with some matches. Sometimes I just did not understand - why? I could play 20 minutes, I could play 16, I could play 12. And on what it depended, I did not understand. So, having arrived in the "Motorist", I continue to work. I have gained colossal experience both in the hall and on the ice. I want to improve. And, as I said, I do not think this is a step back.
Did you meet the head coach? He was waiting for you very much. As late as November, there were rumors about your possible return ...
I had an incomprehensible situation. I did not play the first 10 matches. Indeed, there were talks about the return, but Vancouver did not let me go, so I stayed. As it happened, it happened.
...
What are your personal goals in the "Motorist"?
For you personally, first of all - to gain a foothold in the composition. Get a decent game time, and not so that for 12 minutes per game to go. This I do not want anymore. I have already experienced these feelings on myself. When you are not that you do not get pleasure from the game, but just sit, you look and understand that you can not do anything. And you just want to just enjoy the hockey, play as much as possible, try to be useful primarily to the team. Perform tasks with the command.

Did you follow the game of your native team last season?
Yes. Woke up in the morning, while breakfast - watched the game. Experienced. The native team.
