Wanted to share with all Calgary fans. Pretty interesting and open interview of Zadorov.

Translated via google translate:

* how the 28-year-old hockey player spent his vacation and what plans he has for the summer;
* whether Miami has become his home and what he doesn’t like about Calgary;
* whether he thinks he had the best season of his career;
* why the Flames didn’t make the playoffs and what problems the team had in the regular season;
* who is the ideal playoff player and why Edmonton lost;
* why he agreed to be a guest on the Spittin’ Chiclets podcast;
* why I do not agree with the rating of the most stylish hockey players;
* how he relates to the hate addressed to him at home;
* why he wore a rainbow jersey in support of the LGBT community.

    This one stood out:

    Overtime is your top players. This is skill, the puck kept, hockey IQ, you have to be cunning somewhere, somewhere a little smarter than your opponent. Our players who went into overtime did not follow the setup. Maybe they didn’t have confidence because of the coach’s attitude. Many factors played.

    “90% of the information I can’t tell you. But I will say that we had some difficulties. I liked Darryl, he made me a better player. I enjoyed playing under him. I will say this: at the moment he did not fit our team. Last year, Sutter was the perfect coach for Calgary, this season the leaders have changed, and he did not fit them. They did not find mutual understanding. When you invest $50-80 million in players, you make a choice in their favor.”

    This is all that needs to be said about Sutter’s time here and his firing, sometimes it just doesn’t work out. We don’t know what happened behind closed doors and we probably never will.
