Hockey players “Tractors” During the series, the ½ finals of the KHL playoffs can take advantage of the weaknesses of psychology “Lokomotiv” former defender of several KHL clubs Nikita Shchitov told .
In the Gagarin Cup semi-final series, Lokomotiv defeated Traktor 2-0. The third match will take place in Chelyabinsk on April 6.
— “Traktor” needs to convert his chances and add more offense to get back into the series. Well, the goalkeeper’s game is also very important. Yes, Mylnikov played well in the second game, it was not his fault for the defeat. But that’s not enough for the playoffs. It should help even more. I think it will come in the third game.
– Maybe Fucale will come back? It seems that his injury is not that serious.
– I don’t know, I don’t have such information. If Zach returns to the Traktor goal, the team’s chances will increase. Plus, they play at home. It is also remembered that at the previous stage of the playoffs, Avangard managed to rebound from 1 to 3 in the series with Lokomotiv and reach the seventh game. Chelyabinsk understands this. They know that Lokomotiv has weak points in psychology. They can play on that,” Shchitov told .
