The team from Verkhnyaya Pyshma has never won the regular VHL championship in its history, and has not won the Petrov Cup, but this season it can fix everything. The team has a good selection of players who act at the proper level, but in some areas there is still a lack of skill. Alexey Alekseyev charges have gained momentum and have won in the last five out of six games. The team from Verkhnyaya Pyshma was able to beat Tula AKM in the last confrontation on the ice of others. The match was dictated by Gornyak, who was the first to miss, but then scored four goals and confidently won - 4:1 in the end. This victory was the 25th of the season and allowed them to maintain second place in the standings. The team was unable to break the resistance of Khimik in Voskresensk in the previous game, losing in a shootout. The team has 61 points, scored 155 goals, and is playing with full dedication, but in some moments they need to step up and act more confidently. It is worth noting that the team is the best in the league in terms of goals scored.
