Current form

For now, Lokomotiv retains the first place in the West, but the team from Yaroslavl does not feel comfortable. The Railwaymen scored 41 points in 29 games and are only one point ahead of Torpedo, while Dinamo Minsk is only two points behind the hosts, but the Bison have a meeting in reserve. Bob Hartley's team had a pretty confident second half of October and had a great start to November. Now steam locomotives are going through hard times and alternate between victories and failures. In the previous five games, the Volga team lost three times. In the current home series, Alexander Yelesin's squad started with a crushing defeat against Barys (0:4), then miraculously outplayed Salavat Yulaev (4:3, OT), and in the last meeting missed a two-goal advantage in a duel against the dragons (3:4, OT).

Maxim Shalunov opened the scoring in the match against Shanghai in the first minute, and Byron Fraz doubled Loko's advantage in the second 20 minutes. Yaroslavl was outnumbered at the start of the third leg of the meeting, but Egor Surin restored the gap. The hosts relaxed and conceded two goals within two minutes, and then made a mistake in overtime and lost the game.

Alexander Radulov remains one of the best strikers in the league. The veteran scored 28 points (13+15) this season and continues to demonstrate the highest level of skill.

Amur has returned to the top eight teams in the conference and is trying its best to stay in the playoff zone in the East. Now the club from Khabarovsk is on the seventh line, ahead of Barys in eighth place by only one point. The Tigers themselves have earned only 26 points in 27 starts and are under tremendous pressure from competitors. The guests had an unsuccessful stretch in the second half of October, but with the start of the new month, the team led by Alexander Andrievsky defeated Avtomobilist (3:0) on their ice, took a point in the game against Traktor (1:2, OT) and lost in the Admiral derby (2:5). At the start of the new guest tour, the Far East was stronger than Chelyabinsk (6:4).

In the game against the bears, the guests went ahead from the first minute and scored as many as five goals into the opponent's goal, conceding only twice. Artyom Shvarev, Alexander Galchenyuk, Kirill Petkov and Kirill Urakov became the authors of the goals of the Khabarovsk club. During the second and third periods, Amur conceded one goal each, but the Khabarovsk team withstood the final pressure of the opponent, and Alexandra Galchenyuk finished off the Chelyabinsk team by throwing into an empty net.
