In our Krone series "Welcome to Carinthia", Nikita Scherbak is introduced this time. VSV has acquired an extremely talented forward in the Russian! The 28-year-old former NHL player wants to get back on track at the Drau and make the most of what could be his last chance. 

Already made NHL history! VSV newcomer Nikita Scherbak has achieved something that hardly any top star has. Not Wayne Gretzky, Mario Lemieux, Jaromir Jagr or even Sidney Crosby. Nikita scored a goal on his debut in the best league in the world with his first contact with the puck. Of course, he still remembers it very well. "I'll never forget it, I still have it right in front of me."
