Game three. Dynamo Moscow - SKA. Press-conference

HC SKA head coach Valeri Bragin:

- As we expected, it was a tough match. Dynamo Moscow competed with an emphasis on their attack today, they made our lives difficult. We scored good goals, but then the opponents equalised. We're really satisfied that we won in overtime.

- This was a very different match in comparison to the first two games in Saint Petersburg.

- We always play in attack, but today Dynamo also decided to use that same approach.

- When leading 2:0, did you want to put an emphasis on defence?

- No. We needed to continue playing in the same manner.

- Who made the decision to make Anton Burdasov captain?

- The management group. I think that Anton played well today.

- Is Evgeny Ketov out for a long time?

- It's hard to say, let's see. He has stayed in Saint Petersburg.

HC Dynamo Moscow head coach Vladimir Krikunov:

- The guys tried hard. We came back from a tough situation when 0:2 down, managed to take the game to overtime, but then we allowed SKA to score on the counter-attack. We will prepare for the next match.

- Your team seemed to just watch SKA skate away on the counter.

- I don't know why that happened. A second of relaxation cost us the game.

- Why did you pick Alexander Yeryomenko in net?

- Ivan Bocharov had two testing matches in Saint Petersburg, so we decided to give him a rest.
