Former defender of KHL clubs Nikita Shchitov believes that Magnitogorsk “Metallurgist » will win the Eastern Conference following the results of the regular season of the Fonbet KHL Championship.
After 60 matches, Metallurg leads the East standings with 84 points. Avangard, with two games in hand, is in second place with 82 points. In total, the teams will play 68 games during the regular season.
— Metallurg is progressing with confidence in the East. But Avangard has two games in hand. I think Magnitogorsk will win the conference, although Omsk will be able to bypass it. Both teams have a chance of 50 to 50. “Avangard” can beat “Metallurg”, but I still think Magnitogorsk will win in the East,” Shchitov said, as quoted by RB Sport.
