Alexei Sopin, Avangard HC General Manager:

- Our work doesn’t stop once the deadline passes; we are already looking ahead to future seasons. Today, we are pleased to announce a contract extension for defenseman Maxime Lajoie. He has integrated seamlessly into our roster and adapted quickly to the KHL, becoming an indispensable part of our defensive core and the Avangard family. I am confident that Maxime’s full potential is yet to be reached, and we expect to see his best hockey during the most critical games of the season. We are also continuing negotiations with other key players and hope to share more positive news with our fans in the near future.

In his debut KHL season, Lajoie totals 60 games, 37 (10+27) points and is plus-16.
