Head coach of SKA Romain Rotenberg expressed surprise that the St. Petersburg club leads the league in the number of cuts in the KHL playoffs.
SATURDAY SKA defeated Avtomobilist in the fourth match of the second round series of the Fonbet KHL Championship (5:2). The score in the confrontation became 3-1 in favor of the Yekaterinburg team.
— There was a four-minute suspension. How did you manage to survive?
— SKA generally ranks first in terms of removals in the league, we mostly play in the minority. It is unacceptable. For me, this is the first time in my life that this has happened. The team that plays offensively, with the puck, ranks first in playoff kills.
But we have been trained throughout the season. We coached a minority in regular season games. We will try to improve, the best game in the minority is not to allow it. Well done guys, they played and caught the puck. But we have to work on this. I repeat, we have something to improve,” reports a correspondent, reporting Rotenberg’s words.
