Triple world champion and winner of the Gagarin Cup Alexei Tereshchenko said on that he did not see why Nizhny Novgorod “Torpedo “could become stronger in the Fonbet KHL Championship playoff series with St. Petersburg SKA .
On Tuesday, the Nizhny Novgorod team lost at home to SKA in the third match of the first round of the KHL playoffs with a score of 2:5. Roman Rotenberg’s team took the lead in the series – 2-1.
— Even in the second match against Torpedo, SKA had 67 shots on goal, including overtime, and Torpedo blocked 44 shots. That’s potentially 110 shots per game with overtime. That’s a fabulous number of throws.
I don’t know how Torpedo will get out of this situation. There should be good organization of the game in defense, but unfortunately they don’t have it.
I don’t understand why Torpedo will be stronger. They’ve already said their store is short. Experienced player Kruchinin was removed from the team, he is a center forward and passer. Sizov was removed, but he is an experienced defender who can both lead the team and defend it, he is a fighter. I don’t see how Torpedo can improve. The only thing is the realization of chances, but in the third match there were practically none,” Tereshchenko said on the air of the program “Everyone for the match!” . on the channel.
The teams’ next match will take place on March 7 in Nizhny Novgorod.
