Five-time Russian champion Alexei Tereshchenko in a conversation with , he said that Minskers had no chance of winning the Gagarin Cup first round due to the personnel policy of their coaching staff.
Minsk “Dynamo” conquered S.K.A. the first game of the playoff series (6:4), but lost the next two – 2:5, 0:4.
– SKA head coach Roman Rotenberg, commenting on the third game of the series with Dynamo Minsk, mentioned “dirty Canadian tricks”. Crew Craig Woodcroft play really dirty?
‘That’s what Roman Borisovitch says. The fact that Yashkin was pushed onto the glass is just hockey. And the truth is that in this match, the Minskers had no chance against SKA. There is a visual feeling that Minsk doesn’t need it at all – fight, fight… To be honest, I don’t understand at all why Woodcroft is being held. In addition, everyone is delighted with their work. A man in four years of work barely makes the playoffs and never gives a fight there. Even if the composition of the team is correct. He kicks out all Dynamo leaders, just destroys them. Then he picks up more. It’s as if they were living off something. Take Emelin – he couldn’t work with Woodcroft. Previously, the Kostitsin brothers were also removed, and this list can be continued.
– With such an approach to team formation, do the Minskers have no chance in the playoffs?
– Yes, they wouldn’t even have reached the playoffs this year if Spartak hadn’t made a fool of themselves when the regular season arrived.
The fourth game of the series between Dynamo Minsk and SKA will take place on March 7 in Minsk.
