Yegor Yakovlev: "If we continue in the same vein, everything will be fine"

- SKA are improving with every match. Are the coaches satisfied, or are they pointing our your mistakes?

- We haven't analysed our mistakes yet. If we continue in the same vein, everything will be fine.

- Playing against your national team partners, is it more difficult to compete?

- It's a good thing because we know their strengths.

- When leading 4:2, did you save energy?

- We did that when 4:1 ahead and we conceded a goal. We were punished.

- In the third period, SKA didn't score on three powerplays. Why?

- We'll work on this. Goals need to be scored, but we're playing well in the attacking zone.

- Strategically, is this an important victory?

- All wins in a series are important. We move on, the next match will be even more important.

- How serious is the loss of Nikolai Prokhorkin to injury?

- Every player is worth its weight in gold. I don't know how long Nikolai will be on the sidelines.
