Reaktor goaltender Alexander Kolymayev speaks with the media after a following 4–3 shootpot win over AKM– Novomoskovsk.
– We had a bad start. I think we were too relaxed. Nevertheless, we mdae a comeback. The guys did a great job. Kirill Stolyarov scored two penalty shots, and he played a key role in the shootout. It is a team win!
– How does it feel to play while trailling 0–3?
– I think when a team changes its goalie, it helps to fire up the bench. And it's tough for the opposing to know where to shoot better in order to scorea a goal.
– Yesterday you got your first JHL shutout…
– A shutout isn't the goalie's accomplishment. Yes, you I did not concede any goals. On the other hand, the players scored goals, blocked shots, and were active on offense. So, I think a shutout is a team success!
