GoogleLipmans: ''Dārziņš ir parakstījis līgumu ar ''Dinamo''''

Neilgi pirms Pasaules hokeja čempionāta sākuma, Latvijas Avīze uz sarunu aicināja Latvijas Hokeja federācijas (LHF) prezidentu Kirovu Lipmanu, kurš runāja gan par Latvijas izlasi un gaidāmo Pasaules čempionātu, gan par Rīgas "Dinamo".
''Parasti esmu uztraucies, taču šogad absolūti mierīgs,'' atbild Lipmans uz jautājumu, ko viņš gaida no Latvijas izlases šajā čempionātā. ''Laikam jau tāpēc, ka komanda kārtīgi gatavojās, kā arī komandā bija laba atmosfēra. Jā, tika sacelta neliela jezga par apdrošināšanām, bet tā nebija taisnība. Par to runāja tikai divi spēlētāji. Kuri? Negribu saukt uzvārdus, jo man visi hokejisti vienādi tuvi. Katru gadu paklīst kaut kādas runas, bet beigās viss ir kārtībā.''
Uz jautājumu, vai Znaroks varēs apvienot darbu izlasē ar savu jauno galvenā trenera amatu Krievijas komandā "MVD", Lipmans atbildēja, ka viņš šeit problēmas nesaskatot. ''Kāpēc ne? Ja izlase izpildīs uzdevumu, nebūs pamata Znaroku ņemt nost. Ne vienai vien valstsvienībai treneri strādā arī klubā, piemēram, Krievijas izlases vadītājs Vjačeslavs Bikovs trenē "CSKA". Ja Znaroks neizpildīs uzdevumu, tad otrreiz vairs nevarēsim dot atlaides. Pērn piedevām, jo viņš ir jauns treneris un daudz kļūdu pieļāva tikai mazās pieredzes dēļ. Itālija bija obligāti jāuzvar, arī Šveici varējām uzvarēt, bet nesanāca.''
Tāpat arī Lipmans zināja teikt, ka neskatoties uz to, ka Znaroks esot pateicis, ka viņš savā jaunajā komandā gribētu redzēt Lauri Dārziņu, Lipmans atzina, ka Dārziņš pie Znaroka nespēlēšot, jo viņš jau esot noslēdzis līgumu ar Rīgas "Dinamo".
''Dārziņš jau parakstījis līgumu ar "Dinamo". Ja runājam par naudas lietām, tad mūsu izlases līderi nepelna milzīgas summas. Piemēram, Sprukts vairāk par desmit tūkstošiem mēnesī nekad nav saņēmis. Krievijā algas ir milzīgas, bet citur Eiropā tādu naudu nemaksā. Pieci līdz trīspadsmit tūkstoši eiro mēnesī – mūsu spēlētājiem tā ir laba nauda. Es uzskatu, ka pirms pasaules čempionāta līgumus nevajadzēja parakstīt. Tas nav pareizi no psiholoģiskā viedokļa, spēlētājam bez līguma ir lielāks stimuls cīnīties. Pats domāju, ka Rīgas "Dinamo" hokejistiem maksās no trīs līdz trīspadsmit tūkstošiem eiro mēnesī.''
Runājot par Rīgas "Dinamo", Lipmans atzina, ka viņš neatbalstīs Jūliusa Šuplera kandidatūru "Dinamo" galvenā trenera amatam. ''Cienu viņu kā treneri un cilvēku, bet ir cita lieta. Viss atkarīgs no tā, kā Slovākija nospēlēs pasaules čempionātā. Ja rezultāti būs labi, Šuplers, visticamāk, paliks pie valstsvienības stūres. Un ja mēs nākamgad esam vienā grupā ar Slovākiju? Šuplers visu gadu būs strādājis ar mūsu puišiem un zinās par viņiem pilnīgi visu. Tas nav pareizi. Nevajag manu nostāju saistīt ar to, ka esmu pret Koziolu. Faktiski es Koziolu tā īsti nemaz nepazīstu, jo kontaktējušies esam pavisam maz.''
''Mana kandidatūra ir Ņūdžersijas "Devils" bijušais vadītājs Robijs Ftoreks. Tomēr jābūt kopīgam lēmumam, es negribu viens pats uzņemties atbildību. Domāju, ka "Dinamo" galvenais treneris būtu jānosauc pēc pasaules čempionāta.''

Ja būs Robijs Ftoreks, tad tā ir ļoti laba izvēle!
Pareizi Kira saka, un ja nu mēs nākošajā PČ spēlējam vienā grupā ar slovākiem? Juliuss tak puišus pazīs, zinās mūsu puiku plusus un mīnusus, un apspēlēs vienos vārtos
Varu derēt,kāds NO u20 izlases būs paņemts uz MVD! Piemēram, Značoks vienreiz teica ka Cibuļskis (man liekas ka viņš) var spēlēt Krievijas superlīgā, ja viņš ir treneris!

varbūt kāds var atgādināt viņa sasniegumus klubu līmenī un ar Slovakijas izlasi (tur terenri daudz mainījušies)?

Muļķības, kāpēc lai to darītu? Ņemot vērā leģionāru limitu... Labāk šiem ņemt gatavu, pieredzējušu leģionāru - komandas vilcēju...

The Erie Otters and coach Robbie Ftorek have reached an agreement in principle on a new three-year contract, Sherry Bassin, managing partner/general manager, said Wednesday.
-----------------------------
Nu tad nevajag gulēt, jo citi jau runā par vienošanās principiem jaunam 3 gadu līgumam.

"They would tell me everything that was going on during the game," Ftorek said. "Between periods, we'd talk about it."
Initially, though, figure skating was his first choice.
The tragic death of Maribel Vinson-Owen, a figure skating coach in the Boston area, changed that. Owen was one of several U.S. Figure Skating team members killed in a plane crash en route to the 1961 world championships in Czechoslovakia, according to the Boston Globe.
Then one night, Bruins center Fleming Mackell, his favorite player, took Ftorek through the team's dressing room. He was hooked on hockey. He began playing hockey at 8 years old.
A year later, John Marchetti met Ftorek at a tryout for a team headed to Quebec City, Quebec, for the prestigious Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament. Marchetti, then 12 years old, quickly learned Ftorek would succeed at the highest level.

"Robbie was going to be something special," said Marchetti, 58, Mercyhurst College men's golf coach and the Ice Center's manager. "(The game) was so much clearer to him."
Marchetti played against him in summer leagues. Thankfully, Marchetti said, he didn't face Ftorek while at Wellesley High School.
Ftorek broke state scoring records three straight years, according to Sports Illustrated. He played professionally for 15 years, including six in the NHL, before a knee injury ended his career in 1985. Along the way, he has followed the same philosophy.
"It's doesn't matter if it's on the pond or in the NHL," he said. "It's a puck. It's six against six. There are rules you have to abide by. ... This is the same game."
A sense of perspective
Ftorek is a "big hugger and kisser," he said. Two years ago, the hugs and kisses he exchanged with his daughter Anna, now 18, were difficult to bear. She suffered a concussion after her head struck an Astroturf field during a high school soccer game. For about six months, she couldn't identify family members.
"I could come back three months later and I knew right away she had no clue who I was," said Robbie, who coached Albany (AHL) at the time. "(My wife) Wendy would say, 'Anna, that's your Dad.' It's not very much fun."
Anna is doing well now. She has trouble recalling only the occasional cousin or friend, Robbie said. Next month, she leaves for a six-month international tour with Denver, Colo.-based Up With People, a singing troupe that also handles civic responsibilities.
Ftorek is proud of his four children - sons Sam, 32, and Casey, 23, and daughters Lucie, 29, and Anna. Last weekend, Ftorek watched Casey, a senior at Middlebury (Vt.) College, lead the soccer team to a conference championship in Amherst, Mass.
Ftorek already is proud of his new family - the Otters.
In his two weeks as coach, he has seen the team improve and make mistakes that need to be corrected. Along the way, Ftorek has learned about himself.
"I just enjoy watching kids, watching players, find easier, better ways to do things which make them better," he said. "That's what I look forward to doing."
