“He scored a ball, like Forsberg, that’s what we call this feint,” the correspondent quoted Grigorenko as saying. – Several times in my career I have already scored such goals. And so I sat on the bench and thought what to do? I decided to surprise the Dynamo goalkeeper. And everything worked.
– You also managed to tie the score by throwing the puck from the “patch”. Tell us about this episode.
– It turned out a quick attack, confusion at the gate. Together with Max Mamin, they pushed her there. The puck bounced back at me, I tried to lift it over the goalie shield, but turned out to drive it just under the crossbar. The judge didn’t even see her.
— What should be improved for CSKA before the sixth game against Dynamo?
– Focus. Unnecessary missed goals. It’s not that Dynamo created anything, we made mistakes. What is the first goal, what is the second – because of our careless passes.
– Look at the table. Because the struggle for seats in the West is intense.
– I watch. An interesting fight unfolds. Today was a big win for us – we took two points, broke away from Dynamo. It is important to take the highest place possible in the regular season.
– Raised to start the playoffs at home or to get a less powerful opponent in the first round?
– They often say: “We don’t care who we play with”, but there is a difference. With all due respect to opponents entering the playoffs from eighth and seventh place. We will also listen to them. But if we aim for the Cup, then it is better to pass the first round more easily. To do this, you must try to take second place in the regular season.
CSKA is second in the KHL Western Conference standings with 86 points in 62 games.
