Evgeny Dadonov: "Home ice gave us more strength"

- Can we say that this was a perfect SKA performance?

- Maybe. I think that perfect games don't happen, it's impossible to not make a mistake for the entire 60 minutes. Overall we are satisfied with the result.

- Did the second match change the series?

- Home ice gives us more strength and emotions. Maybe it's down to this, but I'm not 100% sure. We are trying to carry out the game plan.

- Have SKA turned the series tide in their favour?

- It's difficult to say. We will make conclusions after the series.

- Today we received information that the team has asked Ilya Kovalchuk to be reinstated. Is this true?

- I won't answer such questions.

- Games are being played every two days. Is this better than last year's system?

- From one side, it's better than both teams can rest more. However, when you play back to back games some players can have more energy. This year, all teams have the opportunity to play with full energy.
