Vladimir Tkachyov: "I think the fans enjoyed this game"

- Was this an easy win for SKA?

- No, they started well. However, we then changed our approach, scoring goals and taking advantage of our opportunities.

- Both Barys and SKA are among the five best defensive teams of the KHL.

- It was a good, open game. I think the fans enjoyed it.

- What changed after the first period?

- Nothing, but we started playing our own style of ice hockey.

- Have you seen a defenseman score a hat trick in the past?

- No. I congratulate Artyom!
