- Don’t you think that information about problems in the roster of «Torpedo» was the reason for underestimating of opponent?

- We also have problems with our roster. We should think about our decisions. It all depends on preparation and motivation.

- Why did the team let them to score 3 more pucks in the third period?

- Two of the three goals were scored on the power play. Here is the answer.
