05.02.2024

Neftekhimik head coach Oleg Leontyev speaks with the media after a following 4–2 win over Lada.

– Congratulations to the guys on this victory! We played well and got a good outcome. Our fans supported us great. Thank you! In general, the way we prepared and how we set ourselves up, everything worked out. Yah, we conceded two goals in the third. We had two almost perfect periods. We did not concede during 3–on–5 hockey and scored on the power play.  We still have a long way to go, so we are preparing for the next game.

– Having a 4–goal lead, the team slowed down.
– We are not slowing down in any way. We conceded the first goal when our defenseman joined that attack and was not ready to get back. The second goal we conceded, there was just a shot through the slot. Our team prefers to play with spending more time on attack

– Do you follow your playoffs opponents’ games?
– Naturally, we follow the games of our opponents. We have an important game against Sibir ahead. Everything is in our hands and everything depends only on us. We will do our best.
