The Metallurgist miner Novokuznetsk. Betting Tip (cf 2.03) and bets on the VHL match

Gornyak had a terrible start to the quarterfinal series with Metallurg. In the first two matches, the team played on the road, where they could not show their attacking potential at all, scoring only one goal and suffering two defeats with a score of 1:2 and 0:1, respectively. Returning to the home arena, Verkhnepyshmintsy again fought with Novokuznetsk and by the beginning of the second period allowed the favorite to take a significant advantage. It seemed that it would not be possible to avoid another setback, but in the final twenty minutes, the team not only equalized the score, but also took the lead, and eventually pulled Victoria out in regular time (3:2). It is impossible not to mention the efforts of goalkeeper Novoselov, who reflected 31 shots out of 33.

After a very successful start in the Petrov Cup and a victory over CSK VVS in the first round, the team advanced to the quarterfinals, where they continued to consistently delight fans with high-quality hockey. With the support of their native stands, Novokuznetsk played as reliably as possible in defense, not allowing the Miner to realize his attacking potential, winning two victories in regular time. It seemed that due to its significant superiority, the club would also be able to successfully play away, but this time goalkeeper Podskrebalin showed himself from the worst side, reflecting only 86% of shots, which led to a defeat (2:3).
