Head coach SKA Romain Rotenberg after the FONBET KHL championship match with “Severstal” said many will remember this game.
On Friday, SKA beat Severstal on their ice with a score of 8:5. This meeting with 13 goals became the most productive in the current KHL season. The opponents set two league records in terms of rate of fire at once – for the first time, seven goals in a match were scored in an interval of 8 minutes 3 seconds, and never before opponents in a match of the KHL had only scored seven times by 14:55 points.
— Everyone had a great time today, it was a brilliant match. We scored 13 goals, both teams played very well. You have to give credit to the opponent, it wasn’t easy for us. Quick order. Our guys are more powerful, bigger and our opponents are smaller. They had good movement. Severstal played their best match of the season. They prepared very seriously and I watched them practice today. Severstal plays very interesting hockey and we played a match that will be talked about for days. We need this kind of hockey. This is good for the league standings.
Our team played well in two periods. It wasn’t us in the third period. Our level has dropped a little. But stability is a sign of mastery. I am grateful to the team for the victory.
—How about Anthony DeAngelo’s performance? He scored three points.
“We must recognize our defenders.” Pedan scored four points in total. In modern hockey, a lot depends on the defensive players. And when they try to shoot more from the blue line, without sparing anyone, we score a lot. Because our three attackers are tied at five. But the defenders help them a lot in their offensive actions.
– And Anthony? Did he become a member of the team?
– You understand everything perfectly. Of course, we are very happy with Tony’s performance today. I immediately made such a contribution to victory! Besides, he still has a few blocked shots left. The player catches the puck and plays unselfishly. You saw his passes and his shots. And we understand that the whole team has enormous potential. “We haven’t seen our best game yet,” reports a correspondent, according to Rotenberg.
