Can SKA overcome their inconsistencies and overcome Moscow Dynamo?? That’s going to be a great series IMO!

All series are a best of 7.

Dynamo hockey player Comtois: "Many people in Russia speak English. You have an educated country"

"I live in Dynamo, it's a great place - next to the arena. I like to walk around Moscow. I don't have a car, so I have to use the metro. But I don't have any problems. Many people in Russia speak English. You have an educated country. I try to talk to them in English. And if that doesn't work, then I just use my phone, we understand each other through Google Translate"

Last year’s Gagarin cup winner Metallurg loses game 1 of a best of 7, 4-1. Michael McLeod had an outstanding game for Omsk!

 

[CostaRica]

SKA vs Moscow Dynamo at 12:30 today game 1 of best of 7. No Nikishin (injured) for SKA.
Rotenberg’s loses and he’s out as coach??

 

[CostaRica]

Zavragin starts for SKA, but I was told Rotenberg punishes youngsters

 

[CostaRica]

Minimal ice time for Demidov and zaitsev out with the goalie pulled late, wow that’s awful coaching decisions by SKA staff.

 

[CostaRica]

Metallurg, last years champ down 2-0 now after losing in overtime. Series heads to Omsk now with Avangard under Guy Boucher seemingly in control now.

 

[CostaRica]

Cheap shot on Chris Tierney at the end of
CSKA Dinamo Minsk game. Better be a long suspension coming for Kirill Dolzhenkov

 

[CostaRica]

One game suspension for Dolzhenkov, not nearly long enough

 

[CostaRica]

SKA down 2 games to 0 vs Moscow Dynamo - is help on the way for game 3 in St. Petersburg?

Roman Rotenberg: Two strong teams made almost no mistakes over four periods. The outcome of the match was decided by one detail. We made a mistake in overtime. We need to find the keys to the opponent's defense - one goal is not enough. We have someone to strengthen the roster for the next game. I hope that our captain Alexander Nikishin and Sergey Plotnikov will return to the ranks.

Great 3rd game between Metallurg and Avangard, full of tension. Omsk dominated the whole game, but gave away the puck for high danger chances so often the fans spent all 3rd period and OT on the edge of the seat.

 

[CostaRica]

CSKA wins game 3 va Minsk narrowing the series to 2-1 in favour of Dinamo.
Choosing Tierney for the penalty shot was an emotional decision by the coach that unfortunately didn’t pan out.

 

[CostaRica]

Last years champ Metallurg down 3 games to 0

Dynamo Moscow the favourite now???

 

[TheGreatPandasage]

Wow this year's playoffs certainly more exciting than the last. I'm rooting for AK Bars to win but Spartak and Dynamo play some beautiful hockey too.

The league is reaping the benefits of a more balanced league for sure. The intensity and drama is the best I’ve seen in years in the KHL

 

[TheGreatPandasage]

Is this the worst defense of a gagarin cup by the defending champions?

 

[CostaRica]

Magnitogorsk has had plenty of success in the KHL, meeting Omsk in the first round was a tough break for them as Guy Boucher has them playing extremely well.
