Triple winner of the Gagarin Cup Alexei Emelin noted the most interesting confrontations of the first round of the KHL playoffs, distinguishing between the SKA and Torpedo pair.
— The Gagarin Cup has just started. There are teams like Avangard, which always confidently lead in the series, although it cannot be said based on the matches. Quite intense matches.
The SKA and Torpedo series are very interesting. The teams play offensive hockey, there are a lot of ambitious young people. It’s only the first round, few matches have been played yet, both teams have a lot of strength. I think the series will be long,” Emelin said, as quoted by Metaratings.ru.
Roman Rotenberg’s team leads the series with four victories – 2-1. The teams’ next match will take place on March 7 in Nizhny Novgorod.
