Lokomotiv to a guest prevailed over the “tractor” in the third match of the final series of the Gagarin Cup. Closer to the end of the starting period, the Chelyabinsk residents opened an account thanks to the effective work of Vitaly Kravtsov on the heel, but the Yaroslavls, even before the break, restored the equilibrium with the efforts of Arthur Kayumov. In the second game segment, Lokomotiv created a comfortable advantage for Byron Freiz and Nikita Kiryanov. The owners did not give up and reduced the lag at the beginning of the third period, but at the rest of the time they could not create a single dangerous moment, and at the end of the meeting they twice let go into the empty gates. The second match of the final series of the Gagarin Cup was released for the Tractor in all respects. Not only did the Chelyabinsk residents suffered a crushing defeat and allowed the “Lokomotiv” to equalize the score in the confrontation, so they also lost two centers at once. Due to the injury, Andrei Svetlakov was out of order, but the damage to Charles Robinson became much more discussed. The author of the only goal of the Tractor in the second exit meeting was injured as a result of a hard collision with Maxim Shalunov and could not rise from ice. And although the striker of the railway workers extremely rudely met the opponent who did not own the puck, he did not even receive a two -minute fine. I did not see the evil intent in his actions and the KHL sports and disciplinary committee, which decided not to impose additional sanctions on the striker. If someone retained hopes for the sudden hit of Robinson and Svetlakov in the application and “Game on the injections”, then they were not justified. Both were not in the composition, as a result of which Vasily Glotov became the center of the second link, and Yegor Popov, who had never reached the ice in the current Gagarin Cup, had never been overlooking the fourth. The chance to prove himself also introduced himself to Alexander Rykov, who appeared on the ice for the first time since April 28. On that day, the Tractor opened the semifinal series with Dynamo. Also on the topic, the pressure rose: Lokomotiv scored the “Tractor” from the heel three times and equalized the score in the final series of the Gagarin Cup “Lokomotiv” defeated the Tractor in the second match and equalized the score in the final series of the Gagarin Cup. Benoit GRU wards are again the first … It was assumed that the “bears” would not forgive the rivals with the loss of two most important performers, which is why stiff strength techniques and skirmishes will become an integral part of the match. Confirmation of this hypothesis was already followed by the first minutes of the starting period, when Arseny of the rockers grabbed first with Nikita Kiryanov, and then with Daniil Tesanov. In addition, they solidly imprinted George Ivanov, and then Alexander Radulov. The Sudy tried to repay passions, but to no avail. Lokomotiv continued to climb a nickle in a very bravely, and already in the tenth minute a massive fight between the teams broke out on the ice. Grigory Dronov and Alexander Eleesin, who completed their duel in the stalls and received two minutes for rudeness, were especially zealous. The face is closer to the end of the period of the emotions, and hockey itself came to the fore. However, the removal did not stop. Byron Freiza was punished for the bandwagon and sent to boxing, giving the owners a great chance to go forward. And although formally the majority was not realized, it was the absence of the fifth field that led to the capture of the “Lokomotiv” gate. The Canadian did not have time to return, Dronov “smalled” from the blue line, and Vitaly Kravtsov masterfully set up the club. But two minutes later, the “Tractor” returned the debt to “Lokomotiv” and allowed him to release his special brigade. For some reason, the Ostap, who lost balance, for some reason pressed the puck to the ice and was punished with a small fine. And after 37 seconds, the Yaroslavl lighted red light. Radulov burst into someone else’s zone, gathered three opponents around him and rolled at the free Arthur Kayumov. And he threw a throw from Baekhend through the thorough of Zaka Fukal. Perhaps some were alerted by the transition of the railway workers through the blue line, but, as was visible on the repeat, there was no offsay there. Obviously, Benois Gru, who did not dare to take a challenge, also understood this. On a break, the groups went away with an equal score, but the beginning of the second segment turned out to be a cold shower for the “tractor”. It seemed that nothing foreshadowed trouble – the Chelyabinsk residents held a massive attack and could take Daniil Isaev by surprise, but instead they ran into a lightning -otic counterattack. Although in the current playoffs this prem became precisely their business card. Nikita Kiryanov and Richard Panik masterfully drawn a three -way, which Freyz completed, who had corrected the optional removal. Out of the catch -up, the “Tractor” finally went ahead with great forces. In one of the attacks, they kept the opponent in his zone for more than a minute, forcing Isaev nervous, but it did not reach truly dangerous episodes. Perhaps the closest to the success was Glotov-the ex-former SKA threw literally a few meters, but the puck passed just above the crossbar. The reckoning followed almost immediately. Dmitry Simashev’s distant sketch did not look the most sharp, but the ubiquitous Kiryanov won the struggle on the heel and practically repeated Kravtsov’s goal. In the current playoff “Tractor”, he taught everyone to his branded flukes. He made them literally in each of the series, and once he played out even with 0: 4. Therefore, the lag in two goals, although it was impressive, did not allow us to consider the “locomotive” unattainable. Confirmation of this arrived in the 44th minute, and yesterday’s reservists participated in the organization of the goal. Popov won the throwing in someone else’s zone, Vladimir Zharkov cut out the pass on the pile, where Rykov had already expected him. He failed to deal with Isaev, but Denis Alekseev proceeded the puck from the skate into the net. Also on the topic to steal in 13 seconds: the “Tractor” on the road won Lokomotiv in the first match of the final series of the Gagarin Cup “Tractor” on the road defeated “Lokomotiv” in the starting match of the final series of the Gagarin Cup. In the first two periods, the teams could not … The “tractor” had more than enough time to transfer the meeting to overtime or even win, but Lokomotiv put up such an impassable defense that it simply did not go out to hack it. The wards of the GRU could not really cross the blue line – right on it, Chelyabinsk residents met a wall of rivals, did not bring dividends and throwings. More physically powerful Yaroslavlites won the struggle at the sides and instantly discarded. Yes, it did not look very presentable, but it had its fruits. In the second half of the period, Lokomotiv practically abandoned the circuit and focused exclusively on protecting the victorious account. It is all the more amazing that almost the brightest episode took place at the gate of Fukal. Shalunov responded to Martin Gernata’s pass and could score from the heel, but the goalkeeper of the “tractor” saved. True, only in order for the Chelyabinsk people to pass into the empty gates. Literally a couple of seconds after the release of the sixth field, an abundance loss, provoked a response attack, followed. Kayumov completed him and designed the second double in the current playoffs, the end of the confrontation could not do without a brawl. Koromyslov frankly went to beat Shalunov, for whom Gernat stood up. The partners also did not stand aside, but there were no sanctions – unlike Arseny and Martin. Perhaps the Chelyabinsk residents hoped that this skirmish would give them some additional impulse, but no. The next replacement of the goalkeeper turned into another missed puck – the intrigue Alexei Bereglazov finally killed the intrigue. Lokomotiv again defeated the Tractor (5: 2) and led Gagarin in the final series of the Cup.
