SKARussia“We checked the players today. After injuries, many of us decided to take risks and give opportunities to guys who play in VHL and those who don’t because they’re injured. We checked, we looked, we drew conclusions. We played two periods, although we played systematically in the first period, we decided to score a goal due to a mistake. We ate. Psychology also had an impact. We showed our system in the third period, we conceded good goals. Rotenberg told reporters, “We did more, but the opponent’s goalkeeper played great. Good lesson for us. We understand what we need to beat systemic teams like CSKA. First of all, we’re going to fix our own mistakes and that’s what we’re going to do.”
“On the plus side, it’s worth noting that we played great in the 6v4 format. It’s still psychologically difficult to play without a goalkeeper. The opponent could have scored two more goals. So we have positive moments that we hold on to.” and go ahead” – said the coach.

Breaking the blockade is 80 years old. Therefore, we must be able to show our best hockey in a stressful situation. This is a very serious test for everyone. There will be conclusions, including the players, because you always want more. Wait , you believe. In matches with the best teams in the KHL, hockey players are tested – CSKA, Dynamo “,” Lokomotiv “. Like I said, we took risks and put in guys who didn’t play with such systemic teams. And we saw what we saw. We will work on the app because we scored some goals today. Two – not enough, I had to score five goals in this game.”
