Head Coach “Siberia” Andrey Martemianov explained why his team lost “Love” in the Fonbet championship KHL (4:6), although in the first half she scored three quick goals.
Novosibirsk took a 3-0 lead in the eighth minute of the game, and at the start of the second half they won 4-1, but then lost the lead.
– We showed good hockey only until the eighth minute of the game, – said Martemyanov. – After that, the team strayed for no reason, completely stopped fulfilling the task of the game and underestimated the opponent. Lots of losses at the entrance to the zone, lots of unnecessary deletions. Lots of hard to understand things. But we will understand. The gift of self did not satisfy me today. She was at a very low level.
– Today you benched Maxim Sushko after two eliminations.
– With those who entered unnecessary deletions, there will be a special conversation. It has already taken place. Sushko’s game did not satisfy me in principle today.
– You had a reshuffle in the special brigade for the majority.
— There were too many errors in the transmissions. It’s just a little crazy. They want to lead to a clean shot, but that’s very difficult in modern hockey. Ugly climbed on the dime in the attack. You could say not at all. Game smeared. The opponent gave us the perimeter and we skated very well on it. Easy early goals scored, unearned, effortless. It’s psychologically broken.
Sibir, the Eastern Conference leader with 70 points, suffered the first loss in the last five meetings.
