Traktor vs. Atlant 4:2. Press-conference after the match
Janne
Karlsson, Atlant’s head coach:
I don’t know what to say. We have played several decent games recently,
including today’s match. However, we don’t get the needed results and points.
The only thing left for us to do is to forget this match and keep up the hard
work.
Valery Belousov, Traktor’s head coach:
We played terribly in the second period, having made a lot mistakes. We have to
overcome the goal deficit in third consecutive match; that’s not normal. It’s
great that we were focused in the third period and put the game away. Despite I
had to shake up the lines, my boys showed they still knew how to score the
goals.
Question to Belousov: How serious is Kuznetsov’s injury?
Belousov:No information on that so far.
Question to Belousov: Traktor’s defensemen scored only two collective goals
thus far in the season. Obviously their primary target is to prevent forwards
from scoring, but it would be great to see them help the attackers more.
Belousov:You said it yourself – their primary target is not to let
the opponents score. We’ve got forwards to score.
Question to Belousov: When is Andrey Mezin going to take Garnett’s place in
the net?
Belousov:All in good time, you’ll just have to wait a little longer.
