Defender”Ak Barca » Konstantin Luchevnikov believes that the team can go to the Gagarin Cup final through spirit.
Ak Bars and Avangard will meet in the KHL Eastern Conference Finals. Avangard beat Sibir (4-1) and Metallurg (4-0) in the first two rounds, while Ak Bars beat Neftekhimik and Admiral (both series 4-2).
– Very difficult series turned out with both Nizhnekamsk and Vladivostok. Both sets prepared us for more games. In the series with Admiral, I had to overcome more difficulties: flights, first games, floor hockey. The team mobilized.
Games with Avangard in the regular season? They can readapt. You cannot predict how the series will play out. Yes, Omsk have played three games less, but a long streak can be good for us – we will take the tone of the game.
Avangard has a very good majority, there are skillful players. We need to be less aloof and responsibly approach realizing the moments. Our advantages? Of course, Ak Bars can advance to the Gagarin Cup final because of the spirit, Luchevnikov told Metaratings.ru.
The first game of the series will take place on April 1 in Kazan.
