This exhaustion can also lead to such unwanted exclusions. It is therefore important to improve discipline. especially in decisive matches, where this becomes a priority.

– So, does this mean that Rotenberg must pay attention to discipline?
— I can’t say exactly what Rotenberg needs. It has its own team of specialists who know what they need to do. I can only see that we feel the absence of injured players. Nikishin’s absence is particularly noticeable. He is a key and important defender for SKA. The team looks more confident with him on the ice, it shows,” Kanareikin shared with Sport-Express.
