The goalie, falling, knocked the puck out of the empty net with his stick. During a counter-attack, Eric O’Dell scored the fourth goal against Ak Bars.

— It’s difficult for me to analyze the team’s performance. But somewhere we lost duels, somewhere we were simply unlucky, and most of them did not convert, all together led to defeat.
— Did you discuss the situation with Dynamo’s fourth goal, after Nikita Dynyak failed to convert his opportunity?
— We discussed this moment on the bench, discussed whether the Dynamo goalie threw his stick when he hit the puck, we never came to a common conclusion. Of course, this affected the result, ”reports the correspondent of , according to Almetkin’s words.
