Vyacheslav Osnovin: I want to score more than five goals in next season

Your impressions from working with Karri Kivi?
I am very satisfied with the way the training process is organized. Karri is always focused, he always has a comment or two. He also asks us to take more shots and not be afraid to take risks.

You played in both exhibition matches. What did you accomplish and what didn’t?
Unfortunately, I was not able to score. The Avangard match was a little messy – they played very tight and did not give us much time to make a right decision. The other game against Magnitka was much better – we were able to find our A-game and deservedly got a win.

How much are you planning to score in the next season?
I have my certain objectives, but I am not going to elaborate.

But it’s more than five, right?
Of course (laughs). I have to score more. But more important is team’s performance. I am now a fourth line player, so I will do my best to move up – every player wants to be a top liner.
