The defender of CSKA summed up the results of the match with Torpedo.
— After the decline in CSKA's results, now the team seems to approach the playoffs with optimism. Is it inspiring?
— Yes, it is, because Torpedo plays active hockey, steal pucks, anв goes forward. If you come to Yaroslavl or Dynamo, they will roll back, and it will become 2:1, 3:2. By the playoffs, we feel good physically and psychologically. But the knockout games are a completely different season, a different hockey, it's hard to say.
— What is the secret of Igor Larionov?
— He is aware and he has an understanding of how hockey works. Secondly, human qualities, I think he communicates a lot with the players. These are his strong qualities.
— How do you prepare for such a team? They have Kruchinin on the bench, the defender is declared as a forward.
— I think it's a little closer to the show to be on the news agenda. It turned out great with Kruch. A defender on offense is ok. Gilmore has been playing on offense for half a season in Minsk. Great, well done! Everything is media, developing.
