Olympic champion Alexei Zhitnik commented on the situation with Dan Sexton , who earned "-6" in the first two games of the series with "Tractor" and was withdrawn from the Neftekhimik.
"On such a forward as Dan Sexton , frankly, in detail I hear for the first time, here in the States, he is very little known. But it is difficult for me to understand how, in the first two games of the KHL playoffs, he, receiving 20 minutes of playing time and almost all the majority, could not score a single point and earned "-6". It's amazing! This is an unexpected statistics, because just North Americans have always added exactly in the cup matches.
Apparently, now received an answer, why Sexton was not taken to the US team for the Olympics. Frankly, the Americans brought a very weak team to the Olympics. And even if Sexton did not go to this team, then ...
Rumors that Sexton signed a preliminary agreement with the "Tractor" or "Motorist"? In the NHL, this is absolutely unrealistic. While your contract is in force, you are obliged to give 1000% for your club and do not negotiate with anyone. And if this principle is violated by one of the agents, he will simply lose the right to a profession. In the NHL, such moments are punished instantly - and very tough ", - quotes Zhitnik Russia-Hockey.ru.
