The pace of the game offered by the Beijing “Lunu Red Star” team on Monday was very heavy, concludes the head coach of the Continental Hockey League team Riga “Dinamo” Pēteris Skudra.
It has already been reported that “Dinamo” beat Beijing’s “Kunlun Red Star” on Monday in the last game of the season’s fifth away match in Mitišchi with a result in a 5: 4 extension.
The victory was taken by Denis Paršin 11 seconds before the end of the overtime. Miks Indrašis scored two goals for the Rigans in the regular time, but Ondržejs Vitāseks and Pāvels Černovs stood out from time to time.
Richard Bucharest, who had not played for Dinamo since January 2018, played his first match this season.
“The game was very productive, fast and offensive. It was a bad day for the usually speedy. The pace offered by the opponents was very heavy for us. We played quite well in the attack, but at the beginning of the third period there was a lack of concentration, so we quickly scored two goals. There were a lot of good moments for the guys. Bucharest played well, as did the joy of Indraši and Paršina-Chernova-Stolarov’s attack trio, “Skudra told at the post-match press conference.
The Rigans suffered losses in the first two games of this trip – 1: 6 against Moscow’s “Dynamo” and 1: 3 against Yaroslavl’s “Lokomotiv”. Before that, Dinamo won Beijing’s Kunlun Red Star 5: 3 at home and ended a series of 14 lost games.
The Beijing team had a successful series with four wins in five games in October, but has now suffered eight losses in a row, the previous one on Saturday – 2: 5 against Kazan’s “Ak Bars”.
Dinamo is the last of the 11 Western Conference teams with 12 points in 26 matches, while Kunlun Red Star finishes the Eastern Conference table with 12 points in 13 dues.
