Alexander Sharov: it was a tightly fought game

- It was a tight game. We had a great first period with two goals. Something went wrong in the second; I don’t remember when a team had to play for so long with two-man disadvantage. Sure, we got punished for this and whatnot. However, coaching staff found the right words during the second break, and we were able to win this game.

Was the team angry after so many penalties?
Of course we were, but what could we do? The officials made the decision, and we had to stomach it, even if we don’t like it.

The team has been back to Chelyabinsk for two days. Did you get used to Chelyabinsk time once again?
It was tough on the first day, but right now, it’s all good. Even though it was a very long and tough away series, we are on a roll and do keep winning.
