Evgeny Kuznetzov had plenty of opportunity to showcase his bobblehead-worthy bird walk goal celebration, with 27 goals in the regular season and 12 throughout the playoffs.
The 26-year-old center has been working out in his home town of Chelyabinsk, Russia, with training coach Sergey Kholodov, who is helping Kuznetzov improve his goal scoring–and apparently his celly-ing technique.
Kholodov has titled various video highlights “magic flight” and the aptly-titled “Kuzy fly.”
Kholodov also has Kuznetsov doing a wide variety of other exercises.
Kholodov was at Kuznetzov’s Stanley Cup party on August 15. He provided important analysis of Kuzy’s Cup stand technique: “Personal training. You can see a clear bend in the lower back, which is an indicator of weak stability. Whatever, we’re going to work on it. Otherwise, he’s ready to go. 🤙🏻🏆😁”
Kholodov and Kunetzov have been training together since at least last summer.
Hey, it may look weird, but the results don’t lie.
