Sergey Fyodorov: The defeat gave us food for thought

— We stopped playing after the first period. We will establish the reasons and analyze them. I think we failed to set the team for two periods. We didn't play tenaciously, or in power play, it's a biting defeat that gave food for thought. Nevertheless, many players of our squad showed a good level in today's match, playing for the team. But, as we know, hockey is a team sport, we need all 20 players plus two goalkeepers.

— Did it seem that CSKA played without much devil? 

— There is some truth in your words, they are close to what we saw today. 

— Why were changes made to the forward groups after the victorious game in Chelyabinsk? 

— This is due to the fact that the guys from the playing roster recovered, and they had to get playing time. All the deadlines for medical indicators are met, the guys need to play, they will get in shape faster.
