Alexander Dergachyov: «We had a good game»

Neftekhimik forward Alexander Dergachyov speaks with the media after a following 2–3 loss against Ak Bars.

Alexander, you had a long pause due to the injury. What do you think about this game?
I missed the atmosphere, the team, all this pleasant tension, which, so to speak, is what our life consists of. We had a good game – hard–battled game, a lot of hits and puck battles. The score was tied for the most part of the game, and we can say that the game went to a goal, although in general there were still six minutes to save the game. We did not have enough experience, a little bit, or something else, I do not know. Overall it was a good game, it was really enjoyable to watch. Everyone was fighting – it was just a blast, so to speak. If we had won, it would have been better, of course.

How difficult was it to get into the game, especially against Ak Bars?
– It does not matter which team we are playing against. One way or another, rolling in is not easy. At least, it was a good opportunity to paly physical hockey – that is all. After a couple of games everything should be fine.
