KHL. Nine days before the playoffs start

The countdown to the start of the quarterfinal series between Metallurg and Barys continues.

9

Roman Starchenko has 9 goals scored in the regular season. Not the best result for a born sniper, but this season, the legend of Barys has made it to two significant marks.

In early September, the forward played his 700th game in the Kontinental Hockey League (there are 740 now). The fact that the 35-year-old hockey player spent all the meetings in a Barys uniform added to the peculiarity of the event. Roman played in all 14 seasons of the KHL, which is a unique case as well.

In early January, Starchenko scored his 200th goal, making him the seventh player in the League to reach that milestone. So far, he is the second on Barys' list of the best snipers in history.

It should be noted that the last time Barys's No. 48 scored fewer than 10 goals was in the distant 2009-10 season. So let's hope that this season Roman saved his accurate shots for the decisive stage.

Alikhan Asetov earned 9 (4+5) points for his performance in the regular season. In fact, this is the best season in the KHL in the career of the national team forward of Kazakhstan.

Another player from our national team, Pavel Akolzin, who left Barys in the off-season and now plays for Metallurg, showed a similar result.
