KHL club forward “Torpedo” Alexei Krushinin noted that the team loses confidence after unsuccessful actions and begins to play timidly.
The forward played 27 matches in the Fonbet KHL Championship this season, in which he scored 15 (9+6) points. On Saturday, Torpedo lost to SKA in a shootout, leading the match with a score of 3:0.
— Isn’t this the first time we’ve given up in the third period? It’s psychology. If we perform unsuccessful actions, we lose confidence and start playing timidly. It’s urgent. Deletions? SKA has talented guys. It’s never easy being in the minority. Even if you have very good special teams, it’s tough. This disrupts the rhythm and loses initiative. They gave too many chances to the majority’s opponent,” Kruchinin was quoted as saying by “Championship”.
Torpedo is in fourth place in the Western Conference standings with 43 points.
