Controversy In early 2023, the doctor for the team, Alexander Zhukov, died under suspicious circumstances. While no official cause of death has been published, some suspect that his death may be related to his practices of protesting the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
In January 2023, the former head coach for the team, Vladimir Gromilin, was fired by the team's management for physically abusing a player, Yegor Razumnyak. This comes after a long string of coaches being fired for abuse of the team's young and often underage players. Former head coach Artur Ruslanov was fired in 2019 for allegedly being in a homosexual relationship with then-underage player Samuil Danilov. Ruslanov has not yet faced trial as his trial date was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.https://translate.yandex.ru/?from=tabbar&source_lang=fi&target_lang=en&text=sormat
