Current form

It's hard to imagine that at the beginning of the regular season there was a time when the Ufa team rounded out the Eastern Conference table. However, the purposeful work of the management and coaching staff to strengthen and rebuild the game has brought results. After the new year, Ufa gained confidence in their abilities, scoring 40 points in 27 matches in January-March, and booked fifth place in the cup bracket. In the first round of the playoffs, Yekaterinburg Avtomobilist became Salavat's opponent. Their series became the most stubborn of all the eight one-eighth pairs, and six matches had to be played to identify the strongest in it. Having started the series with a defeat, Ufa eventually achieved success with a score of 4-2, while winning three home matches.

Forwards Maxim Kuznetsov, who scored four goals, Sheldon Rempal, who scored three goals, including two winning ones, Daniil Alalykin and Devin Brosseau, who scored two goals apiece, played a particularly significant role in the team's success. Semyon Vyazovoy, the goalkeeper who opened last season, helped the team out many times, although he did not always act flawlessly. In the two matches of this season, the rivals played twice in November during the regular season. Both times, Lokomotiv celebrated success - (4:1) in Ufa and (4:3, OT) in Yaroslavl.

Disqualifications and injuries

Alexander Komarov and Evgeny Kulik will not play in Yaroslavl.
