Metallurgist Novokuznetsk is A Miner. Betting Tip (cf 1.67) and bets on the VHL match

Throughout the regular season, Metallurg demonstrated incredibly high-quality hockey in absolutely all respects, which allowed the team to take the lead in the table and compete in the first round of the playoffs against a clear outsider in the person of CSK VVS. However, the start of the Petrov Cup was far from easy. Novokuznetsk players fully realized their attacking potential in each match and suffered two defeats with a score of 2:4 and 1:3, respectively. Despite some difficulties, the club was still able to confidently complete this series. In the quarterfinals, Novokuznetsk fought with a Miner and in the opening match, with the support of their native stands, they had to smash the opponent, as they threw Verkhnepyshmin at times, but the puck stubbornly flew past the target. As a result, we managed to snatch Victoria with a minimal advantage of one goal (2:1).

Gornyak, in turn, made a great start to the first round of the playoffs, winning a winning streak of three matches in a row. It seemed that the club would already finish it without a single defeat, but the Hammer repeatedly pulled Victoria out of regular time, and eventually even the score. In the final seventh match, Verkhnepyshmin played flawlessly defensively, which made it possible to achieve the desired result with a minimum advantage of one goal (2:1). In the quarterfinals, the club faced the league leader in the person of Metallurg and in the opening game was able to impose a fight only due to the magnificent performance of goalkeeper Novoselov, who deflected 42 shots out of 44. It was the goalkeeper's brave play that saved the club from complete failure.
