“Opponents say it’s hard to play with us because we’re a bad team” – striker “Admiral” Gorshkov

Offensive “Admiral” Alexander Gorshkov talked about the Far East style of play in the current season.

“I think we are doing well. We take points, we are always in the playoff zone. Now we have to add, it’s 100%. Everyone wants the playoffs, the battle is in the East. You yourself have probably seen the painting, everyone wants to get on it. Hence, the knife games. We will strive to win and get to the playoffs.

Chip “Admiral”? I don’t even know… I think we have a very good team of goalkeepers assembled this season. The guys are great, they help us in responsible games, they catch the unshot pucks. And probably the system. Our team plays more defensively. The other guys we talk to say it’s hard to play with us because we’re a terrible team. As our head coach said, “I’m mean, and the team is mean.” Probably.

One or two goals are enough for us somewhere to win the game. At the same time, they also concede a goal or don’t concede at all. The game is built more on “don’t miss”, but we’ll spoil our one or two. I think it’s also the specificities of where we are, where we play. If you play hockey more actively, health is not enough. It’s my point of view. Of course, you have to play games. Different teams need to be approached differently. Somewhere where you can play defensive hockey, where offense and defense are more balanced, you can play actively. I think since we have a result, the points go, it means we are doing everything right,” Gorshkov told the Championship.

“Admiral” takes 7th place in the Fonbet rankings of the Eastern Conference KHL Championship.
