I found the russian original:

The correct tranlation (and my comments in brackets to make it even more clear):

What are my plans for this summer? After tourney, there will be vacation in Turkey [he never mentioned it will be "short" - it was added by twitter dudes], then I will be preparing for draft tests [he specifically mentioned draft tests, not just "training"] in US, gonna train all summer long. Going from KHL to minors? No, of course, I will not. If I will come over [that is exactly how he put it — "IF I will come over", could be misworded by jourlaist though], it will be for NHL. Just like Tarasenko did. Which teams do I follow over there? [this one is hard to translate, as it is a mix of "follow", "cheer for" and "like", but the way it was put, it was like asking for his favorite teams, NOT for the teams he's willing to play for]. Flyers and Rangers, they're decent teams.
