Offensive CSKA Maxime Sorkin in a conversation with after a major win over “Spartacus” (7:1) in Fonbet, the KHL championship said that the army team will try to maintain a high performance in the Gagarin Cup.
The army team scored 15 goals in the last two matches – the victory over Spartak was preceded by a meeting with Torpedo (8-3).
– Why did CSKA lose performance? In the last game you scored eight goals for Torpedo, but now Spartak only have seven? – correspondents of “” asked Maxim jokingly.
“We need to be calmer about our moments,” Sorkin immediately found himself.
– Is your head spinning? 15 goals in two games.
– Since such a productive game is given, you have to hang on to it. It’s good that we started scoring so many goals before the playoffs. We will try to keep this game going.
– But in the first round, the opponents will act against you much more cautiously.
– It’s clear that the playoffs are a different tournament, but I don’t think today’s goals will have a negative effect on us. They give us confidence.
– How do you explain such a surge in performance in recent matches?
– Before that it was not possible to score a lot, now it broke.
– Sergei Fedorov today spoke about the usefulness of the army’s first pass. Has the game changed in this regard?
– Of course, if the first pass hits the right place, it immediately turns out to be a sharp attack.
– If desired, CSKA can “choose” an opponent in the first round. Will you do it?
We need to win 16 playoff games. And that’s not so important.
CSKA is second in the KHL Western Conference standings with 92 points.
