Two-time Stanley Cup winner Sergei Nemchinov expressed the opinion that the confrontation between Omsk Avangard and Yaroslavl Lokomotiv is the most interesting in the second round of the Fonbet KHL Championship playoffs.
Also in the quarterfinals of the tournament will play: Dynamo Moscow – Traktor, SKA – Avtomobilist, Metallurg – Spartak.
— In the second round, all pairs are interesting. But among all the pairs, I will cite Avangard and Lokomotiv. There will be a confrontation between the attack and the defense. Avangard is renowned for its good defense, they have an excellent majority. Lokomotiv is a reliable defense and a tough game.
For offensive and technical players like Tkachev, Boucher will struggle. You have to break through the defenders to get to the goal. I would also like to mention the couple “Metallurg” and “Spartak”. The Red and White are playing very well this season, they got through the championship and the first round of the playoffs without problem.
“Magnitka” is also on an excellent course, they won the Eastern Conference, however, the series with “Amur” was slightly delayed. I think some interesting games await us. There will be offensive hockey,” Nemchinov said, as quoted by Legalbet.
