SKA players speak about the fourth match against Lokomotiv

29 March 2017

Viktor Tikhonov:

- We have a good team which believes in each other. This team can find a way to win. All of our opponents have been strong, and every match in this series was difficult. We knew that it was going to be a tough series against Lokomotiv. The first game was important, it gave us confidence while knocking the opponents. We were riding on the crest of a wave.

Sergei Plotnikov:

- We left everything out on the ice. There were even fights with me taking part. This is ice hockey, we don't have any friends on the ice. The series score is 4:0, but every game was decided by one goal. Lokomotiv's movement was excellent, they have good tactics. The next matches will show how great SKA's reserves are. We have a lot of good players who can decide games. We're not thinking about who we play in the final, we will prepare for either Metallurg Magnitogorsk or Ak Bars.

Mikko Koskinen:

- Each game against Lokomotiv was tough, but now we need to finish the series with an overall victory. Let's give Igor Shestyorkin his due, he had an unbelieveable series. I feel fine, I think that I will be able to play in the Gagarin Cup final.
