Command Analysis
Chelmet Chelyabinsk
Russian FederationCurrent form
At the start of the season, the team from Chelyabinsk did not show a game that would give them a chance of a place in the TOP 16. However, the coaching staff has done a lot of work with their players and fulfilled the leadership's task of reaching the playoffs. Chelmet secured a place in the top 16 of the league and will try to compete for the Petrov Cup, as the team failed last season. Chelmet will not let his opponents relax in the matches, as everything is fine in the defense of the club, and everything is working out in attack. In the last confrontation, the wards of Marat Askarov won another victory, beating Dynamo Altai at home (4:1), but the game before they lost to Magnitogorsk Magnitogorsk (1:2 OT), missing the puck a minute and a half before the final siren, playing in the majority. The club scored 177 goals and conceded 31 fewer goals. The team occupies the eighth place in the standings with 79 points in the asset, which consisted of 36 wins and 25 losses.

Metallurg Novokuznetsk
Russian FederationCurrent form
The forge has been among the leaders of the standings for a long time and intends to win the regular season. However, the coaching staff should think about it and not repeat the mistakes of the Perm Hammer last season, when the hammers took first place and were eliminated in the first round of the Petrov Cup. The beginning of the season was not a shock one, but then the Metallurgist pulled himself together and flew up. The team played in the KHL for a while, and the experience gained in the elite of Russian hockey helps to show a great game. Let's remember that last year the club was left out and did not play in the matches. In the last calendar match, the squad won 41 victories from the start of the championship. Metallurg in the match against Gornyak was more focused on winning and was able to turn the created scoring chances into abandoned goals. The team beat the hosts from Verkhnyaya Pyshma 2-0, scoring their goals in the first 20 minutes. The game before, the club had lost to Dynamo Altai (2:3) on its ice, and before that it had left no chance to Crystal (7:2). At this stage, Andrey Lunev's team has 90 points in the asset and the gap from the second St. Petersburg Dynamo is only one point.
