Lokomotiv again defeated the Vanguard on the road and led 3-1 in the series of the second round of the KHL playoffs. In the main time, Omichi and Yaroslavl exchanged accurate throws just once, so the fate of the match decided in overtime. The decisive was the finishing of the 38-year-old Alexander Radulov in the fall after the next salvation of Nikita Serebryakov. In turn, Spartak won the third victory in a row over Salavat Yulaev. At the same time, the wards of Alexei Zhanamnov realized the majority three times in the evening and struck the empty gates twice. The main characters in their composition were Ivan Morozov who scored a double and scored three points of Adam Ruzhichka. The Tochka from the ranging the fourth match of the series with the “Locomotive” “Avangard” was in a difficult position. In the case of a second home failure, he risked being a step away from departure. In this case, railway workers could put an end to April 19 in Yaroslavl. Yes, and it was extremely difficult to recover after two consecutive defeats with a total score of 3: 10. Omachies were left without the best scorer (1 + 8) and the assistant of the team in the Gagarin Cup Michael Michael Maklaud for a fairly unusual reason. The legionnaire was called to their homeland in Canada for a trial in the case of sexual harassment. At the same time, the head coach of Guy Bushe admitted that he did not know when the ward returned. Also on the topic of Dynamo’s victorious double: “Tractor” missed eight goals in Minsk, “Ak Bars” hardly scored one in Kazan “Dynamo” reduced the lag in the second round of the KHL playoffs with Tractor. The wards of Dmitry Kvartalnova in Minsk are not just … Even in his absence, the hawks began a good meeting. The mentor later complained that in the first ten minutes the rivals could not do anything. This corresponded to the truth. The owners, with the support of the stands, locked the Lokomotiv hockey players in the zone and forced them to regularly throw them. And Alexei Solovyov could open an account, but got into the bar. The current owners of the continent Cup came to their senses. They began to take place with branded counterattacks, with which the defenders did not always cope. What is the episode when Nikita Kiryanov ran away with the partner for Randev with Nikita Serebryakov and did not fall into the far corner. As a result, the advantage of guests on shots on target in this segment turned out to be overwhelming – 16: 2, although not everyone was melting in danger. Yes, and the goalkeeper confidently did his work. And already at the 27th second of the second period, the Vanguard unexpectedly scored. Even before the break, Alexei Bereglazov was written out a small penalty for the bandwagon. Immediately after the opponents took advantage of this. Reed Boucher with a click from the right circle did not leave a chance to Daniil Isaev, who had almost no work before. The answer of the railway workers turned out to be swift. Byron Freiz rolled a puck on a nickle, but did not have time to quit. However, Daniil Chaika unsuccessfully carried out a shell right on Alexander Eleesin, and he took advantage of his moment. And then Richard Panic could completely bring Igor Nikitin’s wards forward, but did not realize one on one with Serebryakov. In the final piece of the team acted extremely carefully, realizing that any mistake threatens to become fateful. But more often they threatened someone else’s gate after all the hawks. As a result, the fate of the confrontation was decided only in overtime. There, the Vanguard could also put an end to, but Isaev coped with the shot, and they didn’t allow anyone to play on finishing. And in the 68th minute, Lokomotiv punished his substitution. Andrei Sergeyev threw the puck on a nickle from the right side. Serebryakov reflected it with a shield in front of him. Denis Alekseev failed to finish the shell, but the experienced Alexander Radulov sent him to the net. Thus, the veteran brought the railway workers the most important third victory in the series and scored the sixth point in the current season of the playoffs. A non-conducted rugging one turn, Spartak and Salavat Yulaev did everything to repeat the script of the previous meeting. Like a day ago, Muscovites led 3: 0. Only this time they did it faster. Hockey players of the Bashkortostan collective themselves involuntarily helped them, constantly allowing violations of the rules. And in the middle of the starting period, the three of them remained against five opponents. At first, Ildan Gazimov received a small fine for the bandwagon, and then Grigory Panin – for the delay of the attacker of the club. Ivan Morozov simply did not have the right to use such a gift. And after 35 seconds, Mikhail Maltsev distinguished himself in the Five Four format. While the guests came to their senses, the red and white were noted by a rather curious naked. Yegor Filin took advantage of the confusion in someone else’s defense and from the negative corner sent the washer to the grid with a ricochet from Alexander Samonov. The honor of the wards of Viktor Kozlov, they did not give up and took possession of the initiative, constantly increasing pressure. This led to removal already in the roster of Spartak. And in the second period, green, as in the previous match, reduced the lag to a minimum. Moreover, both Josh Livo and Dinar Khafizullin also realized the majority. The goal was especially important for the Canadian, because he turned out to be the second playoffs in the current season, although he became the best sniper of regular championship, and debut in the reporting confrontation with the capital’s squad. The guests tried to organize the storm, but the rivals in general They coped with their attacks. And if necessary, Arthur Zagidulin came to the rescue, who performed a total of 30 sibs. For example, he coped with the shot of Sheldon Rembala from the right circle. And Salavat Yulaev again ruined the removal. At first, Denis Yang and Maltsev went to the bench for a scuffle. Then, Alexey Vasilevsky received two minutes. Moreover, he did it in a foreign zone. Taking advantage of the excellent translation of the teammate, the defender was right in front of the goalkeeper, but not only could not outwit it, but also knocked him down. In the format of “four by three” red and white, they quickly increased the gap. The evil genius of Ufa residents Adam Ruzhichka gave an excellent effective program to Morozov, who sent the puck to the near corner and designed a double. At the end of Kozlov, he was forced to take risks and change Samonov on the sixth field. But this led only to two more missed goals. It is noteworthy that not only Alexander Belyaev, but also a rugal managed to score. The Slovak scored three points in this meeting (1 + 2) and was already noted by the sixth goal in the confrontation with the green. So Spartak won the third victory in the series and, like Lokomotiv, stopped a step away from the Gagarin Cup. He can go further on April 19 on the road.
