SKA - Admiral. Press-conference

HC Admiral Vladivostok head coach Alexander Andrievsky:

- It was a tough game because of a number of reasons. SKA moved better than us, especially in our own zone. In the second period, we lost our concentration after the second goal, had a few bad shifts and the forwards didn't help out in defence. It's great that we managed to turn the game around. We're satisfied with the one point.

- Who is Admiral's number one goaltender?

- It's hard to say. Ivan Nalimov got injured in the summer and he hasn't yet recovered. At the moment, we are giving all of the goalkeepers a chance.

HC SKA head coach Oleg Znarok:

- We're not happy with the result. When you lead 2:0, you have to see the game out. Unfortunately, we made several mistakes, including their first goal. Nevertheless, a win is a win, we move on.

- How do you feel having returned from Toronto?

- If I'm honest, I drank a litre of coffee today. We arrived in Russia yesterday. I took a sleeping pill to help me sleep, however since waking up at four in the morning feeling great, I haven't been able to rest during the day. I was tired during the game, the players found it tough too.

- How has the team been kept while you were away?

- As you can see, the players have been winning all the time. The movement was good.

- The replacement worked?

- Of course, Pyotr Vorobyov is my coach!
