HC Lokomotiv Yaroslavl head coach Alexei Kudashov:

- We deserved to lose this match. The score reflects what happened on the ice.

- Do you know what to do in order to move back to Yaroslavl level at 2:2?

- Of course. We will analyse and will try to fix the situation.

- Are you satisfied with your young fourth line? At times Alexander Polunin was left on the bench.

- I will be short: we are 2:1 ahead in the series, and are preparing for the next game.

- Why has Ilya Kovalchuk been excluded from the team?

- Ask questions about the game.

- After the first match, have these previous two been closer to your expectations? Are there a lot of components that need to be worked on?

- We have cameras and computers - we study the opponent's game, and make conclusions. There is always something to work on.

- Vyacheslav Bykov came to the match today. Are you planning on meeting him?
