SKA - CSKA. Press-conference of game three

HC CSKA Moscow head coach Dmitry Kvartalnov:

- It was a tough, long game. We got lucky in the end, Geoff scored a goal. The guys did a good job.

- What is the secret to stopping SKA's powerplay?

- We are playing our game. At times we are lucky, but so far the system is working.

- Last year, your players booked a restaurant after going 3:0 up in the series. What will you do this year?

- I didn't hear about that. Do you definitely know that? Is that a rumour? I don't have anything to say about this topic.

- Will it be difficult for your players to not remember what happened last year?

- They have forgotten that series. You can make your own conclusions, and we will continue to work.

- Speak about Alexander Radulov's two overtime penalties?

- This is very interesting. We played five periods without any powerplays. What is there to say? The game was level, but the referees made their decisions. We are prepared for this.

HC SKA head coach Sergei Zubov:

- I can repeat what my colleague has said. It was a hard game. The guys fought, and I am proud that we had a team today. We had chances, and we should have scored.

- This was one of SKA's best games of the series. How did you improve the team's game?

- The previous game was just as tense. We will prepare for the next game.

- Why couldn't you score? Were you not lucky, or did you not work hard enough?

- It's the responsibility of the game. Hockey is an emotional game.

- Will new players come into the squad for Monday?

- Yes, we have a long bench.
