Sergey Fedorov: CSKA is in good condition, on the move

The head coach of CSKA summed up the results of the Moscow derby against Dynamo.

— I don't think we had fundamental mistakes. Somewhere they loosened their grip. I think that after the second period we rebuilt, conceding at the beginning of the third. I won't say that our second goal was coming, but I'm glad that we were able to even the score. In overtime, both teams could win, but we were stronger in the shootouts.

The last four overtimes are four different cases. We're just relaxing a little bit. The team is in good condition, on the move. We do not forbid playing with the puck, we ask them to play one hundred percent, especially in the middle zone.

We asked the guys not to stick their sticks in their legs. Sometimes it works. I would like it to be so in all games. Yarosh was injured in Ufa. The forecasts were bad, but it's not so terrible. Klasson has the flu. Reideborn is preparing for the playoffs according to a special program, and Sharychenkov is still playing. They didn't change the goalkeeper in overtime because of a mistake in Ufa, and because they wanted to feel positionally what it was like to play 3 on 3. 43 seconds before the end, there was an idea to replace him, but they decided to bring it to the shootout. It's time to move on to other positions in terms of the playoffs.
