I wish Alexander Ivanovich (Medvedev, KHL President) success in the further development of the league and in the development of hockey as a whole. Everyone knows the situation with CSKA, she’s just disgusting to me. I don’t want to be involved. I have made no sense for this situation for a long time, but in the future I will find what to do” - - conveys the words of Fetisov RIA Novosti .
