The head coach CSKA Sergei Fedorov after a home defeat against Chelyabinsk “Tractors” said the team is not yet able to translate its thoughts and goals onto the ice.
On Tuesday, CSKA lost to Traktor on their ice with a score of 0:4. In the previous match, the army team lost to Lada – 3:4.
— Once again, I congratulate the opponent for the victory, Traktor played well, took advantage of all our mistakes, we have no fundamental problems, but the result is on the scoreboard. I have no complaints about the guys. I know for sure that the character and skills are not gone. We don’t have enough fire and emotion lately, it’s not enough to win.
— Why was Grigorenko absent today?
– Misha is a little ill, I think he will join us soon.
— What does it take to start a winning streak?
– It is not a quick process, after such matches the confidence disappears. The players and I have the same thoughts and goals, but we haven’t been able to translate them onto the ice yet. We will try to resolve this issue in the next 24 hours and take on Avangard in one fell swoop.
— You say that the team has nothing to reproach, but the score on the scoreboard is 0:4, what is the reason for this result?
— The mistakes that led to the goals against us were not fundamental, the main thing was that everyone was in their place, but the puck entered our goal. The game does not start yet, but everything is in our hands, we can correct the situation.
—Have you thought about the need to shake up the units?
— We haven’t scored any goals, if we change the lines we can stay with zero goals. Shock therapy is a good shake-up, but it must be done correctly,” Fedorov’s words are reported, according to a correspondent.
CSKA has scored 30 points in 27 matches and is in fifth place in the Western Conference standings.
