Excerpt characterizing Sergeev, Andrey Nikolaevich

And the owner of the courageous voice, apparently an infantry officer, laughed.
“But you’re still afraid,” continued the first familiar voice. – You’re afraid of the unknown, that’s what. Whatever you say, the soul will go to heaven... after all, we know that there is no heaven, but only one sphere.
Again the courageous voice interrupted the artilleryman.
“Well, treat me to your herbalist, Tushin,” he said.
“Ah, this is the same captain who stood at the sutler’s without boots,” thought Prince Andrei, recognizing with pleasure the pleasant, philosophizing voice.
“You can learn herbalism,” said Tushin, “but still comprehend the future life...
He didn't finish. At this time a whistle was heard in the air; closer, closer, faster and more audible, more audible and faster, and the cannonball, as if it had not finished everything it needed to say, exploding spray with superhuman force, plopped into the ground not far from the booth. The earth seemed to gasp from a terrible blow.
At the same moment, little Tushin jumped out of the booth first of all with his pipe bitten on his side; his kind, intelligent face was somewhat pale. The owner of the courageous voice, a dashing infantry officer, came out behind him and ran to his company, buttoning up his boots as he ran.

Prince Andrei stopped on horseback on the battery, looking at the smoke of the gun from which the cannonball flew out. His eyes darted across the vast space. He only saw that the previously motionless masses of the French began to sway, and that there really was a battery to the left. The smoke has not yet cleared from it. Two French cavalry, probably adjutants, galloped along the mountain. A clearly visible small column of the enemy was moving downhill, probably to strengthen the chain. The smoke of the first shot had not yet cleared when another smoke and a shot appeared. The battle has begun. Prince Andrei turned his horse and galloped back to Grunt to look for Prince Bagration. Behind him, he heard the cannonade becoming more frequent and louder. Apparently, our people were starting to respond. Below, in the place where the envoys were passing, rifle shots were heard.
Le Marrois (Le Marierois), with Bonaparte's menacing letter, had just galloped up to Murat, and the ashamed Murat, wanting to make amends for his mistake, immediately moved his troops to the center and bypassing both flanks, hoping to crush the insignificant one standing in front of him before the evening and before the arrival of the emperor. him, squad.
"Began! Here it is!" thought Prince Andrei, feeling how the blood began to flow more often to his heart. “But where? How will my Toulon be expressed? he thought.
Driving between the same companies that ate porridge and drank vodka a quarter of an hour ago, he saw everywhere the same quick movements of soldiers forming up and dismantling guns, and on all their faces he recognized the feeling of revival that was in his heart. "Began! Here it is! Scary and fun! " the face of every soldier and officer spoke.
Before he even reached the fortification under construction, he saw in the evening light of a cloudy autumn day horsemen moving towards him. The vanguard, in a burka and a cap with smashkas, rode on a white horse. It was Prince Bagration. Prince Andrei stopped, waiting for him. Prince Bagration stopped his horse and, recognizing Prince Andrei, nodded his head to him. He continued to look ahead while Prince Andrei told him what he saw.
Expression: “It has begun!” here it is!" it was even on the strong brown face of Prince Bagration with half-closed, dull, as if sleep-deprived eyes. Prince Andrey peered with restless curiosity into this motionless face, and he wanted to know if he was thinking and feeling, and what he was thinking, what he was feeling at that moment? “Is there anything at all there, behind that motionless face?” Prince Andrei asked himself, looking at him. Prince Bagration bowed his head as a sign of agreement to the words of Prince Andrey, and said: “Okay,” with such an expression, as if everything that happened and what was reported to him was exactly what he had already foreseen. Prince Andrei, out of breath from the speed of the ride, spoke quickly. Prince Bagration pronounced the words with his Eastern accent especially slowly, as if instilling that there was no need to rush. He, however, started to trot his horse towards Tushin's battery. Prince Andrei and his retinue went after him. Following Prince Bagration were: a retinue officer, the prince's personal adjutant, Zherkov, an orderly, an officer on duty on an anglicized beautiful horse and a civil servant, an auditor, who, out of curiosity, asked to go to battle. Auditor, fat man with a full face, with a naive smile of joy, he looked around, shaking on his horse, imagining strange looking in his camelot overcoat on a Furshtat saddle among the hussars, Cossacks and adjutants.
“He wants to watch the battle,” Zherkov said to Bolkonsky, pointing to the auditor, “but his stomach hurts.”
“Well, that’s enough for you,” said the auditor with a beaming, naive and at the same time sly smile, as if he was flattered that he was the subject of Zherkov’s jokes, and as if he was deliberately trying to seem stupider than he really was.
“Tres drole, mon monsieur prince, [Very funny, my lord prince,” said the officer on duty. (He remembered that in French they specifically say the title prince, and could not get it right.)
At this time they were all already approaching the Tushin battery, and a cannonball hit in front of them.
- Why did it fall? – the auditor asked, smiling naively.
“French flatbreads,” said Zherkov.
- This is what they hit you with, then? – asked the auditor. - What passion!
And he seemed to be blooming with pleasure. He had barely finished speaking when an unexpectedly terrible whistle was heard again, which suddenly stopped with a blow to something liquid, and sh sh sh slap - the Cossack, riding somewhat to the right and behind the auditor, collapsed with his horse to the ground. Zherkov and the duty officer bent down in their saddles and turned their horses away. The auditor stopped in front of the Cossack, examining him with attentive curiosity. The Cossack was dead, the horse was still struggling.
Prince Bagration, squinting, looked around and, seeing the cause of the confusion, turned away indifferently, as if saying: is it worth engaging in nonsense! He stopped his horse with the manner of a good rider, leaned over a little and straightened the sword that had caught on his cloak. The sword was old, not like the ones they used now. Prince Andrei remembered the story of how Suvorov in Italy gave his sword to Bagration, and at that moment this memory was especially pleasant to him. They drove up to the very battery where Bolkonsky stood when he was looking at the battlefield.

He remembered the choice between football and hockey, his “golden hat-trick”, and also named the SKA hockey player he would like to play against.

What complaints can there be against Slava?

Andrey, the team had a great start: four wins in five starting matches. And the opponents were teams that would become rivals for the playoffs.

We were determined to go out and win every game. Any points are important, during the season everything can turn out any way, now we need to earn more. We didn’t look at these matches as games against direct opponents for a place in the playoffs, but simply tried to win them.

- Surely the derby against CSKA (3:2) was most memorable?

Certainly! An interesting opponent, the strongest team in terms of composition that we played against, but not the strongest in terms of game, and also my previous team.

- You have already played derby games for both Spartak and CSKA. Before the start of last season, where the teams met in the opening game (Spartak won 1:0), you, while still a CSKA player, said that it was necessary to “break” Spartak. Did you remember this phrase?

No, I didn’t know then that I would move to Spartak, now I can say the same about CSKA. For me, the most important team is the one I am on now, and there can be no other preferences. It doesn't matter which team you play for in the derby, the match will be interesting. The lineups don’t matter either, because the game will be stubborn, puck against puck, and not a single hockey player will be given a pass during the game.

- Before the season, many players said that the atmosphere in the team was very good, that everyone was ready to fight for any player. We were able to witness it after the match with Lev, when the Czech Martin Shevts promised to break the arm of Vyacheslav Kozlov, and all the passing Spartak players did not give him offense and showed his opponent his place.

I don’t know what he was thinking about, some kind of complaint to Slava... He is a respected player not only in Spartak, but throughout the world, and in the NHL he was respected here too. The complaints against such players are unclear.

Didn't resist when they said it was better to be a defender

- At the end of last season you were exchanged to Khabarovsk to Amur, and you stayed there for only a short time.

For two or three weeks, I played a little over two games, then I got injured, and that’s it, I went home. This time has passed fleetingly.

- Was it good to return to Moscow in terms of family?

Of course, I’m familiar with the city, I know almost everything, I live in the same area, it’s convenient and the family was happy. Well, not to Khabarovsk! (smiles)

- How did it go with the first move from Nizhnekamsk to Moscow?

It was quite easy, and there was no daughter yet; they only found out that she was going to be in Moscow. So everything is fine.

- You were born in Simferopol, but how did you end up in Nizhnekamsk?

When my father was young, he went there to work, bought a house in Simferopol, and we lived there until 1996, and then the whole family moved back to Nizhnekamsk. He suggested that I go to hockey or football. I told him to choose himself, it didn’t matter to me. My father knew the director of the hockey sports school, so we went there.

When he was little, he always came to training, and it took a very long time to return from training, although it was only about seven minutes from home. We walked continuously for about an hour, talking about hockey - he scolded me very much. I didn’t like the way I was playing, I wanted me to improve. Thanks to him, I’m probably playing at this level now.

- How did you decide on your playing role?

They congratulated us before one of the games and gave us an apartment as a gift. And then I immediately left - they changed me to CSKA.

- Where you continued to win.

Yes, that year turned out to be interesting. Immediately after the World Cup, I went to the Universiade, where they took gold, and then with the CSKA youth team they won the Kharlamov Cup. You could say I scored a hat-trick!

What emotions remained from the Universiade, after all, the strongest squads do not always perform there, and the tournament was held in Erzurum, Turkey?

I also thought, what kind of hockey is there? But everything was carried out not in the tourist area, but in the mountains, where there was a normal winter, frost. The team consisted mainly of players from the “tower”, MHL, many guys from Kazan, Almetyevsk, Nizhnekamsk. You could say the Tatarstan team.

We still bring a lot of heads to ourselves

- In Spartak you play in the first pair of defenders, is this role familiar?

Since childhood I played in the first pair in both the youth and second teams, I got used to it as a child. In CSKA, of course, everything was not like that, although he played there in the first pair with Sasha Guskov under Julius Schupler. I like to play a lot, it allows me to improve my skill and everything, when playing on the power play you always come out, everything is in your hands.

Foreigners are famous for throwing out of any situation, and generally throwing out more. The attackers demand from me: if there is a chance, then I need to throw. The goalkeepers probably aren’t expecting it, so we score.

- Nevertheless, despite such a start, what do you need to improve on?

The defense is still a mess, we make mistakes, we lose players, so we need to improve, and then everything will be fine, we will concede fewer goals. We bring a lot of heads for ourselves.

- What about you personally?

Anyway, I'm still 22 years old. Apparently, you have to be stupid to think that at 22 you can do everything. Absolutely add in everything, improve every day after training.

- Now the team faces its first away series this year, is there any plan for a minimum of points?

They say that 50% is good from departure, but we will try to bring more. There are no invincible opponents - you have to try.

- Surely you’ve already thought about your opponents, and SKA St. Petersburg should be the first serious test for the team?

Definitely, this is not the weakest team, good guys play there. It will be interesting to play against Ilya Kovalchuk, I hope he will be on the first line to play against him!

AT THE TOURNAMENT LARIONOV ENTERED DYNAMO

– You left Russia early, little is known about you. You play in the top five in the Russian national team, but the press doesn’t spoil you with attention. Isn't it offensive?
“I left for a reason.” Went to America to grow as a hockey player, so no hard feelings.

- Let's correct the situation. So, you started playing hockey with the Silver Sharks.
“When I was five or six years old, I told my parents that I wanted to play sports. And they sent me to hockey. Initially, there was no goal of becoming a professional athlete; I worked out for the sake of my own health.

– When did you realize that hockey could become your profession?
– It’s hard to say so right away. Probably when I was 12 years old, when I was already playing at the Dynamo school. And at the age of 14 I realized that this was mine.

– How did you end up at Dynamo?
– Dynamo coach Yuri Balashov invited the top five “Silver Sharks” to play at the Igor Larionov tournament. We showed ourselves well, and me and Artyom Mogila ( Now he is a forward for the Red Army. – Note "Championship.com" ) were left on the team.

Igor Levitsky still played with us at that tournament; a year later he left for CSKA.

– Did you immediately become a defender?
– No, in the “Silver Sharks” I played in the third attack line. But one day Alexander Levitsky ( Igor's father. – Note "Championship.com" ) put me in the first pair of defense. I was 9-10 years old then. I was obedient and immediately began to follow the coach’s instructions. Now all that remains is to thank him for this.

– Did you have a favorite team as a child? Maybe a player?
– Player – Pavel Bure. And the team is Dynamo. It just so happened that I was chosen to go to Luzhniki more often. And when I moved to Dynamo school, there was no choice. We were given a pass to the arena.

– Have you often been called up to the Moscow national team? What successes in your childhood career do you remember?
- I played twice. First they won the tournament in Khanty-Mansiysk, and in 2008 they won the regional championship. Alexander Khokhlachev and Andrey Pedan played on that team.

THE GALCHENYUKI INVITED ME WITH THEM

– Why did you decide to move to the USA at the age of 16? Was this an independent decision?
– I left for the USA with the Galchenyuks. I was friends with Alex, and his dad coached us at Dynamo. When they were about to leave, they offered it to me. And I agreed.

“Your parents weren’t against it?”
– On the contrary, they were all for it. They knew that I was in good hands and that I would train a lot. We must say thank you to Alex’s dad, he constantly worked with us. Maxim Zverev also left Dynamo with us.

– And before that, did you have a desire to go overseas?
– At first I didn’t plan to go anywhere. But when such an opportunity arose, I thought: “Why not.” I knew that I could improve there.

- By the way, what about school? Did you manage to finish your studies in Moscow?
– I didn’t go to school in 11th grade. He returned from America, began taking extra classes, and then immediately passed the Unified State Exam. And not bad, I got good marks in biology and Russian.

– Did you even know what league you were going to? I think few people know what the Midwest Elite Hockey League is.
– This is a very strong American AAA league (the highest. – Note “Championship.com”). I played in Chicago, they also perform there and in Detroit strongest teams in this age. We played on a team coached by Alex's dad. Maxim and I lived in the Galchenyuk family.

– Did you play only with local teams? Does this resemble the Moscow Championship?
- The principle is different there. Teams play in mini-tournaments called Show Case. We traveled almost the whole country, we were in Denver, Detroit, Minnesota.

– Did you like living in Chicago?
– Cool city, I really liked it. The center there is beautiful, with skyscrapers. We were at one. There's a rooftop cafe, a balcony and a glass floor. You sit and look down. It was scary.

– Did you go to Chicago’s matches in the NHL?
– Attended about 10 matches. Crazy atmosphere. People there love hockey very much. I myself had a lot of caps and T-shirts with the name Seabrook. Why Seabrook? Because he is a defender and number seven.

– Are there people on the current US team who you played with back then?
– Not on one team, but I remember defender Trobe. He played in Detroit. No one else.

– What was the first thing that struck you about the new league?
– Another hockey. The style itself, the training is more intense than in Russia. Additionally, we worked with Alex’s dad and worked a lot off the ice.

– Were there other foreign players in the league?
– According to the league rules, only two foreigners can be entered. They were Maxim Zverev and me. Alex played like an American. This is a general rule throughout the league, both in America and Canada.

– What is it like to live in another country at 16 years old?
– At first it was unusual, but then you adapt. Of course, at 16 it’s difficult, you don’t see your parents, you miss them. But I understood why I came, I talked to them on the phone. The absence of relatives still takes its toll. It's one thing to live with them, and another to be alone.

DOESN'T LOOK LIKE VOLCHENKOV

– Do you now regret that you left so early?
- No, it helped me a lot. In the summer of 2010 we had a draft. Alex went to Sarnia, and I was drafted to the Quebec League.

– Was there an agent already by this time?
- Yes, I was. Igor Larionov.

– That same summer, CSKA chose you in the KHL draft. Did you attach any significance to this?
- It was nice. CSKA is a club with a name. Sergei Nemchinov called me before and after the draft.

– What is it like, after such megacities as Moscow and Chicago, to find yourself in small Val d’Or in Quebec?
– At first there was shock. I thought it was an ordinary town five hours from Ottawa. And after 40 minutes we were already in the forest. We arrived in the city, and there were the most high buildings on three floors. But gradually I got used to it, the city turned out to be good, the people were all kind,

there are many restaurants where you can sit. But in winter it is very cold there.

– You were completely alone, already without Alex. Wasn't it scary?
– Another goalkeeper from Sweden came with me. And Latvian Vitaly Khvorostinin. He played for the Latvian national team in Calgary. They left us with the Latvian, but unhooked the Swede.

– French haven't started teaching?
– I know a little French, I can even talk, especially if I’m in a good mood. Everyone on the team mostly speaks French, but everyone speaks English too. For example, the trainer conducts all meetings in English.

– Which language is more widespread in the city?
- French. In Ottawa or Quebec, everyone speaks English. And the farther you are from big cities, the more people doesn't own it. The older generation doesn't speak it at all.

– You are probably the only Russian in the city?
- No. The head of the local McDonald's is also our compatriot.

– Did you communicate more with Latvians on the team?
– Yes, especially since he speaks Russian fluently. One time the coach even called us and said that we should be more with the team. It was a bit difficult for us, all the guys spoke French, and we sat and batted our eyes. But we played 20 matches and joined the team.

– I read that in America you are compared to Anton Volchenkov. They see you as a defender who will take shots and play in a “stay at home” style. How do you like this comparison?
– I don’t think I’m similar... If only because I catch throws. The rest is all different for us.

– And the Internet is full of videos of your fights. How often do you have to take off your gloves?
“I got into a fight in the first game. It turned out spontaneously, but successfully. I immediately felt confident, and now I can fight.

– In junior leagues they usually ask: “Are we fighting?” You are asking?
- In the first year they asked me - I never refused. This year I met two people harshly, one approached and offered to fight, and the second immediately attacked.

– Do verbal altercations happen often?
“They can drive around for half a game, swear, and then fight. But I don’t talk to them: “If you want to fight, go ahead.” They either fall silent or fight.

– Before the game, do you look at the statistics, the opponent’s penalty minutes?
“I think people get very burnt out because of this.” For example, look at the statistics of a striker, he has 20 goals in 20 games. You think he is the main threat, and then others score. Or you see that a player has 80 penalty minutes, and I, for example, have 60, and you start to think that he fights better.

In the second part of the interview with Artyom Sergeev you will learn:

– how he first played for the Russian national team;
– how I met Pavel Datsyuk in the Detroit camp;
– how you can get fined in Val d’Or.
