Barys - Dynamo Moscow. Coaches' comments (video)

After Barys vs Dynamo Moscow game (3:2 B), a press conference with the participation of the teams' head coaches was held.

Alexey Kudashov, head coach of Dynamo

- The game was equal, so it probably came down to free throws. Barys executed them better. What can I say about the game... we probably had the advantage for the most part. But our realisation didn't allow us to win the game in regulation time. I want to single out the opponents' goalie Pasquale. He played well today. Always when a team changes coaches, it plays with double the energy. Barys looked like that today.

Galym Mambetaliyev, acting head coach of Barys

- We analysed the opponent and prepared. The game is difficult, the opponent is good. The guys did well today, they tried. They caught the puck on themselves, were patient in defence, patient in attack. We suffered in overtime, we won the shootout. Well done!

- Who determines the five players who go out to shootout?

- I know all my own, who were at the World Championships, who can perform. And we took Barber and Oberg, they are right-handed, they must perform. It didn't work out, it's okay. Next time, I think, it will work.

- Edward Pasquale is back after a brief pause. How would you rate him today?

- Today he played with a good mood, well done. He was in the team and played for the team. Today was the team and the first squad played well and the second, third and fourth. There are no claims to anyone. That's why we won.

- When will we see Ruslan Ospanov in the lineup?

- I think soon. The guy is very good, promising, I think he will be tried out in the main lineup in the near future. There are a lot of young guys who have matured now, and they can be included in the first team.
