Head coach “Ak Barsa” Anvar Gatiyatulin after the defeat of “Siberia” congratulated the opposing captain Sergei Chirokov with the 1000th match played in the Super League and KHL.
On Monday, Ak Bars lost to Siberia (3:6) in the home match of the KHL regular season. Shirokov reached the mark of 1000 matches in the national championships.
— I would like to congratulate Sergei Shirokov on his 1000th match – it’s a solid number and he is a great player. As for our game, during these two days we gave ourselves the mission of restoring emotions to the team. At first it seemed like it was working, but I’m probably not ready to comment on the last five minutes of the first one – I have to watch the whole thing and analyze it.
We were leading 2-0 and would have thought the game was going well, but it wasn’t. We work on the component of playing in uneven lines in every training, analyze everything, watch videos. There is something that needs to be worked on, but we have a lot of flaws,” Gatiyatulin was quoted as saying by correspondent.
Ak Bars scored 16 points in 12 games and ranks fourth in the Eastern Conference standings.
