MOSCOW, January 28, Semyon Galkevich. Forward of the Russian national ice hockey team Anton Slepyshev said that he was worried about getting into the national team for the Beijing Olympics, having received an injury in December. The Beijing Olympics will be held from February 4 to 20. The Russian team will fly to Beijing on February 2. Slepyshev did not play in the Channel One Cup due to an injury sustained in the last KHL game for CSKA before the tournament as a result of a fight with the forward of the Nizhny Novgorod Torpedo Kirill Urakov. «It was just a shame in December, when I received a stupid and unnecessary injury. It will be a lesson for me «It was a shame, I was worried then, because the Channel One Cup is a chance to show myself. But they called me to the training camp anyway and gave me a chance. Of course, thoughts creep in that now I can’t get to the Olympics. It was expected that I would recover for a month. But everything turned out a little faster, even managed to play two matches in the KHL. Everything did not turn out as badly as it could,» Slepyshev told reporters.
