Participants of the 3x3 Future Cup share their emotions

Interviews were taken after Russia U20 became champions of the 3x3 Future Cup at the Sibir Arena.

Russia U20 defenseman Nikita Poltavchuk:

"I really enjoyed the competition! We had more room for creative play. Furthermore, I like playing here in Novosibirsk! The city is fantastic, and we can see just how the fans love ice hockey."

Russia U18 goalkeeper Yakov Kazantsev:

"There were plenty of odd-man rushes during the tournament! It served as a useful experience for us. Thank you to the supporters for creating such a wonderful atmosphere!"

Russia U20 forward Mikhail Melikov:

"It's always interesting to play 3-on-3. There's consequently more space available, the teams protect possession of the puck better and we have more freedom. I helped our team win by equalising and subsequently converting my penalty shot."
