German Tochilkin: «Today was a hard–battled game»
23.11.2025
Neftekhimik forward German Tochilkin speaks with the media after a following 1–3 loss against Salavat Yulaevv.
– Today was a hard–battled game. We can say that who makes first mistake will lose it.
– Compared to the last game, we conceded two goals in the third period. What's the reason for that?
– We probably lack a bit of concentration at the very end, when we need to step it up and give it everything to win games like this. We will work on that; we still have half the season left.
– Why did the power play stop working? We even conceded a goal today, despite having one more player on the ice ...
– Our opponents are playing well on the penalty killing, and we are making mistakes here and there. So we need to correct our mistakes and try to make it work. We are not in a slump. We just need to win one game, and everything will be fine. We need to work hard and break this losing streak.
