Defender “Spartacus” Egor Zaitsev told that the days are over in the KHL when teams were overloaded heading into the playoffs.
Spartak is in fourth place in the Western Conference standings with 76 points from 59 matches.
— Previously, it was believed that coaches put stress on players before the playoffs so that during the knockout matches, they would come out of the stress and be in better shape. Is there such a thing now?
– That time is already over. Previously, this happened during breaks during national team matches. Indeed, some coaches overloaded teams and held training camps right before the playoffs. And now no one will charge. There are a lot of matches, all the hockey players are in good shape. Now if you charge it, you may not be able to get out of the hole,” Zaitsev told .
