Sergei Shirokov: "We lost our concentration"

- Oleg Znarok stated that this was the season's worst game. What do you think?

- It's hard for me to judge, I have been out for a while. It was a tough game, Jokerit fought hard. As a result of missing a number of chances, it turned out to be a close match. Still, it's great that we won. Everyone has said that this wasn't our best performance.

- How did Jokerit equalise twice?

- We will need to review the match. Maybe, we lost a bit of our concentration. We'll prepare for future games.

- Having not played for a long time, how do you feel?

- I feel good. My teammates helped me out, and it was nice playing on special teams. I need more time to get back on form though. Only matches will get you back into shape.

- You have seen recent matches from the stands. What was the difference today?

- Nothing much was different. We are ony family working towards the same goal.

-The team had its winning streak snapped against Avtomobilist. Are you paying attention on to such things?

- No, the media pay more attention on to this. We didn't speak about this in the dressing room.

- Why are Jokerit playing a lot worse than last season?

- Ask them, each team has its own reasons. We're thinking about our games.

- Did you miss Vyacheslav Voynov and Patrik Hersley?

- We have a large squad. It's a shame that they are out at the moment, but we're continuing to work.

- A tough road trip is coming up. Are you prepared for it?

- It's hard because of the flights and the different time zones. After we come back home, a difficult match against Dynamo will take place. Hopefully, everything will be fine.
