Command Analysis

Russian FederationCurrent form
There are five games behind the opponents' series, after which today's ice masters lead 3:2. The last match could send the team from Verkhnyaya Pyshma on vacation, and Norilsk for the first time in history to the quarterfinals. But everything turned out differently. The first period shocked the polar team - five unanswered goals. At the same time, the first puck flew into the goal already at the 39th second. Everyone understood that the Miner would not allow the team from the city of the same name to pass on without a fight, but no one expected such a development. In the second 20 minutes, the squad soaked up the score, but it was their only goal of the match, and the hosts scored three more times. The final segment passed almost without a struggle, where Vladimir Gusev's team conceded four more goals.
