Neftekhimik player Fyodor Kroschinsky speaks with the media after a following 1–2 loss against Severstal.
– Today was a realy hard–battled game, the guys did their best. There were many power plays, we did not capitalized. We will work and prepare for the next games.– As you noted, the opponent took plenty of penalties, but failed to take advantage of the man advantage. Can this moment be considered the key one in this game?
– It cannot be called the key one, because there were moments even with even strength, although we must give credit to the opponent, who defended well throughout the game.
– During the preparation for the game, as a rule, you analyze the opponent's actions on the ice. Moreover, a month ago you already played against Severstal. Did not you manage to implement the coaching instructions?
– Yes, of course, we analyzed Severstal's game carefully. I think our mistakes spoiled the game in many ways in the end. We need to improve in scoring goals. Only by scoring goals you can win games. Yes, it is hard to play against a well–organized team. Today was exactly the case when the team that made fewer mistakes won.
