Command Analysis

Loko

Loko has set itself in a precarious position after suffering two losses in Moscow. However, it is worth noting that Alexander Ardashev's wards lost both meetings in the event. The Yaroslavl team had a fantastic first period in the number one game, but struggled in the second. We were able to restore the status quo in the final game section, but we fell short in the shootout (1:2).
The defense performed even worse the next day, and the attack only managed to score one goal again (1:3). Is there a scheme in place for the «railroadmen» to save? The solution will be revealed today.

MHC Dynamo

In this playoff draw, Dynamo has yet to suffer a loss. It is widely believed that the team headed by Yaroslav Luzenkov has a large margin of protection, which is fuelled by unwavering faith in their skills.
We were able to overcome a tough first match, which aided the «blue and white,» who flew to strike the opponent's target from the first minutes of the second match. The Loko goal came in the sixth minute, thanks to Ivan Didkovsky's fast strike. Before the break, the teams traded shots, and the fans waited for the next goal for half an hour of play time, until Yegor Alanov set the final scoreboard figures - (3:1) and (2:0) in the series.
