Season Overview
Following the results of the previous season , Lokomotiv took 4th place in the KHL.
In the 2010/2011 season of the KHL championship, the team was given the highest task - to take the Gagarin Cup : Lokomotiv had previously won three gold medals ( 1997 , 2002 , 2003 ), and also has several silver and bronze medals of the Russian Championship. Hockey observers Lokomotiv was also called one of the main favorites. It was symbolic that the βrailroadβ was headed by the legendary β Pan Wuytek β, leading the team to victory in 2002 and 2003.
According to the results of the regular season, the Yaroslavl team took the third place by points among all the teams, losing to Avangard and Salavat Yulaev , but at the same time they became the best in the Western Conference . [1] In the playoffs, Lokomotiv reached the semifinals of the championship (conference finals), having unexpectedly overwhelmed the Minsk and Riga Dynamo in a bitter struggle, where they suffered a heavy defeat from Atlanta , which was not considered a favorite. [1] As a result, the βrailroadβ were in third place - after βSalavat Yulaevβ and βAtlantaβ, as the other team that stopped at the semifinals - Magnitogorsk β Metallurg β - scored fewer points in the regular season; This is the fourth bronze in the history of the club. [2]
The main reason for the failure of Lokomotiv should be called a mediocre game in defense. Many defense line players acted unreliably, and their playoffs differed for the worse from playing in the regular season (in particular, defenders Alexei Vasiliev , Sergey Zhukov , Alexander Guskov ). For example, Alexander Guskov, like the overwhelming majority of attacking defenders, is less reliable in direct defense, but scored 19 goals in the regular season 2010/2011 season (the vast majority was scored when the excess was realized), and he marked only four assists). Also, the goalkeeper team acted not in the best way, there was no stability in the game of goalkeepers (in particular, the main goalkeeper Dmitry Kochnev ) [1] [3] [4] [5] , who did not come true in the playoffs of the hopes for the game of attackers (in particular, Yori Lehteria ), as well as an inexpressive play in a playoff series with Atlas of Lokomotiv leaders ( Joseph Vashicek and Pavol Demitra ) [1] , as well as a lack of understanding and stability of the game [1] [3] [6] .
