Metallurg took the lead in the final series against Lokomotiv 2-0
Dirty hockey breaks our players. The goal was to break our players – and somehow, they succeeded. But we have not weakened, we will be stronger.
We must not allow situations where our guys will be broken. Five people broke in the playoffs! Before that, they beat our leaders in the regular season,” Championship quotes Rotenberg.
