The head coach of the Vanguard Bob Hartley said in what condition the team approaches the decisive, seventh, match of the playoff series against Metallurg.

“There are two excellent teams. Given the six previous meetings, the outcome of today's game is very difficult to predict.

As soon as the puck touches the ice, everything will depend on the players. I am satisfied with what I see, our team is liberated, knows its own business, everyone is concentrated.

In the seventh match, no one wants to become the player who will make a mistake, but hockey is a game that consists of errors. The match will take place at high speeds, anything can happen. The main thing is to be focused, completely ready.

Yesterday, sitting on the plane, the guys were in a good mood, laughed, we enjoy the moment. And today we will be ready for the decisive battle, ”said the head coach of the Avangard press service.
