Barkov Jr. is the son of famous Spartak striker Alexander Barkov. He was born in the Finnish city of Tampere, and was drafted second overall by the NHL’s Florida Panthers in 2013. He’s showed his quality as one of the leaders of the Finnish national team at the Worlds in St. Petersburg. That naturally was the first topic to discuss when we caught up with him recently.
Aleksander Barkov, what are your impressions from the first days of the IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship 2016 in Russia?
