"Babayev commented on the response to the proposed journey to Canada"
In a recent turn of events, former Avangard forward, Vladimir Tkachev, found himself without a contract after the club decided to terminate his agreement. The specific reasons behind this decision, as well as the refusal of coach Guy Boucher to meet with Tkachev, remain a mystery, with no clear statements or direct quotes providing insight in the available search results.
Following the termination, Tkachev swiftly signed with Admiral, indicating a smooth transition. German Chistyakov, the general director of Avangard, had offered Tkachev a chance to travel to Canada for a personal meeting with Boucher, but Tkachev's agent found this offer pointless.
Tkachev himself shared that Boucher refused to meet with him, despite the club's management's requests. The agent, in an attempt to maintain professionalism, reworked a letter from the club to avoid it appearing as an insult to the coach.
The refusal to meet was not a recent occurrence, as Babayev's suggestion for a post-season encounter between Tkachev and Boucher was made after the season had ended. The agent, sensing that the coach did not intend to work with Tkachev in the future, began preparing options for the forward in other clubs.
Interestingly, Babayev did not mention any offer to travel to Canada for a meeting between Tkachev and Boucher in his recent statements. The agent's latest comments did not address the details of the offer for Tkachev's contract, which was terminated recently.
The termination of Tkachev's contract, which ran until 2030 with a salary of 120 million rubles per season, is a recent development that has left many wondering about the reasons behind it. The intriguing dynamic between Tkachev and Boucher continues to be a topic of interest, with the exact causes and motivations yet to be fully understood.
As the situation unfolds, fans and sports enthusiasts alike eagerly await more information to shed light on this intriguing turn of events in the world of Russian hockey.
What about the possibility of Tkachev joining an NHL team, perhaps playing hockey for one of them instead? Boucher's repeated refusals to meet with Tkachev have left many wondering if there's a chance Tkachev could be playing sports in North America soon.
