There are not so many truly talented hockey players in Russian hockey today. Therefore, for those who have already established themselves well enough, fans treat with special respect. One of these hockey players, and for some fans the idol is Averin Egor.
Most often, specialists in this sport find hockey talents in the European part of Russia. Which is understandable, since in this part of the country there are more high-quality sports facilities and more qualified trainers. But recently, the vector of hockey talent has moved beyond the Urals. And there, in Siberia, more and more talents appear. One of the first such stars was Averin Egor. Hockey player from God, as hockey experts said about him at the beginning of his career. Let's look at how such a star appeared on the hockey horizon and what it is currently doing. And also slightly open the veil of secrets of Yegor Averin’s personal life.
The beginning of a hockey career
The future hockey player was born in 1989 in Omsk. In those days, this city did not have great sports fame, much less hockey. The only hockey player that this city raised, the one that Omsk citizens could be proud of, was Viktor Blinov. He was the champion of Europe, the world and the Olympic Games. But all this was in the distant sixties of the last century. With this athlete young Averin Egor could take an example. But Egor was not able to meet with the famous fellow countryman, since this talented defender died at a young age in 1968. But the sports arena of the Omsk “Vanguard”, on which Averin trained, bears the name of Blinov. It reminded a beginner hockey player of what heights can be achieved through hard training, possessing even a little talent. And with talent, as noted by sports experts, Yegor was all right.
Speech for the Omsk "Vanguard"
Yegor Averin, an Omsk “Vanguard” hockey player, takes his first steps in hockey in the youth sports school of his hometown. He holds 226 matches and scores 244 goals to prove his talent as an attacker. This is more than one goal per game. Moreover, in the same games he gives 226 assists.
Two seasons, starting in 2006, Averin Egor spends in the Omsk “Vanguard”, playing in the Russian Super League. At the age of seventeen, a young hockey player had already begun his performance in adult hockey. The next year, Averin Egor spends in the team of the first league Avangard-2. And a year later, in 2008, begins a performance in the KHL for the Omsk “Vanguard”. He spends four years in this team, delighting local hockey fans with his game.
Transition to Yaroslavl Lokomotiv
In September 2011, the Lokomotiv team from Yaroslavl died in a terrible plane crash at the Yaroslavl airport . In order for the famous team not to disappear from the hockey map of the country and in memory of the players who died in this disaster, the KHL teams decide to support the Yaroslavl team. They delegate some of their players there. So, from the 2012 season, Yegor Averin has been joining the team.
The hockey player, having chosen this club, remains loyal to him until today. In it, the athlete spends the fifth season, and in each of them plays about fifty games. And in the last two seasons, he scored about twenty goals for each. With the participation of this athlete, the Lokomotiv hockey club regularly enters the KHL playoffs. Egor Averin did a lot for this. Statistics of this hockey player suggests that at the moment he is a leading player in Yaroslavl “Locomotive”.
Athlete participation in international matches
If we talk about attracting a hockey player to the national team, then the experience of playing an athlete is quite rich, but in the youth team. Although in recent years, Egor Valerievich Averin was also invited to the national team of the country. Speaking in youth competitions in 2007, Yegor takes part in the junior world hockey championship. After playing seven matches and scoring three goals, the hockey player together with the team wins gold medals and becomes the world champion among juniors. Hockey fans hope that Yegor will achieve no less success in the national team.
Assault Troika Partners
In modern hockey, the lineups of attack threes change like cards in a deck. And each coach tries to choose a combination that would ensure the victory of his team. Therefore, during various preparatory matches, Yegor’s partners became different forwards. So, in the spring of 2016, the coach of the Russian national team tried a combination of Apalkov - Galuzin - Averin. The experiment was successful, and the three played quite effectively.
Hockey achievements
Having played twelve seasons in adult hockey, Averin Egor reaches certain heights of excellence. There are not many active players who have played nearly four hundred matches in professional hockey. Moreover, this year it is expected that Averin will abandon his hundredth puck, since he has only one left. In addition, there are not many hockey players who have only two teams on their track record. Moreover, the transition to the “Locomotive” happened because of the tragedy, which was described above. In addition, the teams in which Averin played for eight years, are constantly involved in the final stage of the championship, playoffs. And this year, fans are sure that this indicator of the hockey player and his team will be improved.
Athlete's personal life
For many athletes, personal life consists of a series of constant problems, and this is understandable. After all, they are waiting for constant moving and training, so that there is practically no time left for a loved one. But this can hardly be attributed to Yegor's family. Although many athletes try to start a family after the end of their sports career, Yegor married at a relatively young age, at 21. At that time, it was precisely for the Omsk “Vanguard” that Yegor Averin played. Lokomotiv (Yaroslavl), which became Yegor’s second club, did not interfere with the athlete’s family life, but rather strengthened it. It is in favor of this team that Yegor becomes the father of twins, whom he loves. His wife Tatyana is not a public person. She was able to create a warm family hearth, which she supports during her husband's frequent business trips. It is the family that helps Averin to set great sporting goals and achieve them.
