Barys head coach Yuri Mikhailis spoke about the preparation of the team for the start in the playoffs of the Continental Hockey League (KHL). His words are quoted by the official website of the capital club.
- Yury Vladimirovich, sum up the preparation of the team for the playoffs.
- Good preparation, we had two training camps with a short break. Before the friendly games, the collection was more for physics and technology. There were worthy rivals, two very powerful teams - Moscow Dynamo and Spartak. In the first game against Spartak we had a decent lead in attack, we scored good goals, most of them worked. Dynamo has a very strong defense even without the leading players, almost all the leaders are in the ranks. We really needed such games, instructive, it's good that they were held, they will definitely come in handy for us in the playoffs.
– How do you evaluate the game in the new combinations of players who have not changed all three matches?
- Roman Starchenko did not go with us, they gave him a rest. Therefore, Alikhan Asetov was put in the first link, he already played there, shock and great. He was one of the leaders, his aggressive attacking game suits us. As for Yegor Petukhov, he played in his own style, his excitement, attitude and fuse added speed to the third link.
- Today Dmitry Gurkov was transferred to the list of injured. How much will the loss of the center forward, who played a lot in the minority and did the dirty work, affect the team?
- Of course, this is a significant loss. It's a pity. We already have a truncated squad, so the loss of any player greatly affects the team. Yes, a big loss.
