Avangard head coach Bob Hartley

«Congrats to Ufa for the win. We played great 1^st period, we ha d a good start of the 2^nd period and then we made major mistakes we turned pucks over, it became basically turnovers festival. We put ourselves on the heels. We got crowd on the game; we got Hartikainen and company going. And it was just a start of the end and just like a big wave. We had totally no answers, so basically we self-distract. »

Salavat Yulaev head coach:

«Thanks for the congrats. I agree that in the 1^st period we made a lot of mistakes in our zone, neutral zone and on the exit of the neutral zone. Our rivalry played aggressively and realized some moments. It is great that we completely have changed our play in the second period, founded forces, showed some muscles and turned out the game. It is great that scored in the 3^rd period and right after that we continued to attack and won. I would like to notice, that in the needed moment the fans gave us support and thank to them , guys replied with a great play. »
