Press Conference «Neftekhimik – Amur» 01/11/2023

– It was the hardest home game for us I am glad that we got a win. The guys did a great job. The opponent played well. Despite 1–0 on the scoreboard, today there were plenty of good combinations and scoring chances. I want to thank our fans for their support.

– In the first period, Neftekhimik played in fast-paced way, while the opponent played in this way in the second and third periods.

– I agree that in the second period Amur played better. Maybe we did not expect that. Therefore, the second period we did not play the way we wanted. Andrei Tikhomirov played great and kept us in the game. In the third period, I think we had a lot of scoring chances.

Vadim Yepanchintsev, the head coach of HC Amur:

– In the first and third periods there was an equal game from both sides. In the second period, we had small advantage. Unfortunately, we did not take advantage of it. We will analyze the mistakes, draw conclusions and move on.
