Why did the Russian goalkeeper go on such a painful journey? The answer is simple. The global situation around coronavirus, which significantly affects movement between countries, spoke to travel.
In the KHL, Makarov caught a total of 69 matches with a success rate of 91%. He also scored one game in the NHL. In the 2014/2015 season, he started one duel in the colors of the Buffalo Sabers. Years ago, he was also a member of the Russian national under-20 team.
