Dynamo Moscow coach Alexei Kudashov before the KHL playoff series with Torpedo, he said he was calm about the coaching duel with Igor Larionov .
Dynamo finished fifth in the Western Conference in the regular season. The Whites and Blues will face Torpedo from Nizhny Novgorod in the first round of the playoffs.
– It is no coincidence that Torpedo occupies a high place. A solid, powerful and fast team. A little atypical, but the organization of the game is now perfectly in order. He is a very strong opponent.
– Is it good that Torpedo promises to play attack even in the playoffs?
– If what they say was still in the playoffs, we could probably talk about it.
– Are you interested in a coaching duel against the innovator Igor Larionov?
– I’m completely calm about it. We always have one of the new coaches shooting. Generally speaking, I will say that all of our coaches, no matter who you appoint, are working well. And this is a very good team…
In general, nothing depended on us. We were in fifth place and were just waiting for our opponent. That’s how we treat it: there’s Torpedo, we know its strengths. I hope we find out the weak sides. In the championship we played with them 2-2. I think it will be an interesting equal fight, ”Kudashov answered questions from the correspondent.
