Roman Rotenberg speaks after playing Lokomotiv in Yaroslavl

HC SKA head coach Roman Rotenberg:

- I would like to congratulate Lokomotiv with their win, they have a strong, organised team. We must play better in order to break down such solid defences. Our discipline let us down today, we're taking the most amount of penalties among teams which are in qualification spots for the playoffs. We wasted a large amount of clear scoring opportunities. Unfortunately, some of our players had received injuries in our previous match against CSKA Moscow at home. We lost the faceoffs 18-42? Lokomotiv have strong players for faceoffs, especially Sergei Andronov. We will focus on what we can improve for our upcoming games.
