Head Coach”Severstal » Andrei Razin after the victory over Lokomotiv, he expressed the opinion that the exchange with SKA Saint-Petersburg would strengthen his team in the future.
On Monday, Severstal defeated Lokomotiv in the Fonbet KHL Championship away match (3:2 OT). The Cherepovites trailed 0-2 midway through the third period, but managed to bounce back and score the winning goal in overtime, converting the majority.
– In the first half we played too timidly, we almost did not create chances, – Razin told reporters. – The second period was better. But they also played a shift incorrectly, so they missed it. We almost didn’t believe we could win, but we overturned this match. The first goal gave us a boost. And at the end of the match we dominated, we played better. Thanks guys. I had never been able to win in Yaroslavl before, since the days when I led Saratov Kristall in the VHL and came here to play against the team of the great Piotr Ilyich Vorobyov. Finally it happened.
— How do you evaluate the exchange with SKA? How will he strengthen your team?
– Heavy exchange. The negotiations lasted almost a day. In the end, it turned out the best – everyone is happy. We are in the dark, but we are risking a bit next month. But looking to the future, Severstal only benefited from this exchange.
On Monday, SKA and Severstal exchanged players. Goalkeeper Vladislav Podyapolsky went to St. Petersburg. In return, SKA gave Severstal goalkeeper Alexander Samonov and defender Daniil Pylenkov, as well as the rights to striker Ilya Ivantsov.
