Evgeny Dadonov: "We played more defensively after taking the lead"

- How do you always find space on the crease?

- We have five players on the ice. My teammates find me.

- You had problems creating chances when at equal strength.

- It's hard for me to answer this question. Maybe Dynamo had more opportunities, but we also had openings.

- Did Dynamo play as you expected them to?

- We tried to keep the scoreline in our favour. We held the lead throughout the game, and when you are ahead, you play more defensively. We knew that Dynamo would shoot a lot, they have a lot of good shooters on their team.

- Is the result more important than the performance?

- That's always the case, if you lose, it doesn't matter how you have played.

- Coach Vladimir Fedosov's birthday was yesterday. Have you congratulated him with this win?

- We wished him a happy birthday yesterday, today is a new day and tomorrow is the 8th of March.

- Which goal did you like best?

- Nikita Gusev's.
