Vladislav Gavrikov: "We are proud to wear the Leningrad jerseys"

- Did you know that SKA hadn't won in Minsk for three years?

- No, we only thought about the fact that Dinamo Minsk had won three of five matches ahead of the new year break. We knew it wouldn't be easy.

- SKA only managed to score once on the powerplay today.

- They played well on the penalty kill. Nevertheless, the main thing is that we scored eventually.

- Will you prepare in a special manner for HC Jokerit Helsinki in Finland?

- Yes, we prepare especially for every match. All of the opponents are strong, we won't underestimate them.

- The coaches tried different powerplay units today.

- I couldn't score a goal. We need to take advantage of our opportunities.

- How do you feel wearing the special Leningrad jerseys?

- It is a huge honour. This year, it's the 75th anniversary of the end of the Siege of Leningrad, and it's important to honour this day in the correct manner.
