Kravets: Barys Must Aim to Win, Not Just Compete
Barys Astana's new head coach demands a winning mentality from his squad, as the club looks to move on from years at the bottom of the Eastern Conference.
Mikhail Kravets, head coach of Barys Astana, has set out what he expects from the squad this season, after the club spent several years finishing bottom of the Eastern Conference before his arrival.
The squad has also changed shape off the ice. Forward Emil Galimov, 34, left for Metallurg Novokuznetsk in the VHL this week in search of regular ice time, closing out a Barys career that brought 643 KHL appearances and 247 points.
