KHL. Admiral - Barys. Trainer's comments

After the match Admiral - Barys (3:0) a press conference was held with the Head Trainers of both teams.

Andrei Skabelka, Barys Head Trainer

- There wasn't enough energy, I guess. It's hard to make claims against the guys. Tried and fought hard, more than 20 blocked shots. Our attack lacked freshness, courage, energy. The fifth match in seven days is affecting. That's a pretty tough schedule. I can only say thank you guys for their work. We didn't manage to get any points today. Perhaps even more regretful because of Khabarovsk matches. Getting ready for the next game.

 - Did it affect their psychological state that the Admiral took so many shots, sometimes coming from situations that weren't the most obvious? Did the whole team lose their grip a bit?

- I wouldn't say that. First of all, we didn't have enough energy in the attacking zone and had more possession of the puck. It is clear that the Admiral threw from any position, from any angle, and, in the end, they got his way. We didn't have much of a power today, but we weren't able to play that effectively. And quite a lot of them were deleted today.

- Today we had a lot of things, today we played one of those quality games in the attack. We created a lot of chances, did attacks. Guys got a lot of good action in the attack It's good that we responded appropriately to all these defeats. I think that today we dominated the entire match, we deservedly won. We're not going to stop; we're going to keep moving. It's a game that has to be held, never letting it go.

 - Just yesterday we talked about trust, and today there was trust in the players? I mean Gutik and Khomchenko.

- That moment when the players from the rotation contributed good energy, played a good match. And I think they should stick with that kind of game. It shows once again that no one is irreplaceable in hockey. They got a chance, and they took it. It's a nice headache for the training staff. Those players who are off the roster - let them think for a while. No one will be over-praised, but it's great. It means we prepared the reserve squad correctly, what with the rotation looking very decent. God forbid it should be more than one match.
