SKA - Barys. Press-conference

HC Barys Astana head coach Andrei Skabelka:

- It was a good match. In the first period, SKA had the advantage, but we managed to take the initiative in the second. The third frame was even. I could be upset about losing, but ahead of the KHL Gagarin Cup playoffs where there are no penalty shootouts, I can be satisfied with the performance and the commitment.

HC SKA head coach Ilya Vorobyov:

- Thank you to the fans for their support. It was like a playoff game, it was very physical and a good test for both teams. It's good that we finally won in a penalty shootout.

- Do SKA choose tactics depending on the opponents or simply play their own game?

- We always play our own game.
