Russian team left to play only one match in the group stage, and the questions to her game still a lot.

The emergence Bobrowski in the starting lineup for the match – the coaching staff error

It is understood that Bobrowski just could not manage to get tired physically. 93 throw in 5 matches – this is not a burden for the goalkeeper who is used every day to reflect on 30+ far more sophisticated ( at least on average) rivals. But mentally tired from the extremely ragged rhythm games in which 10 minutes of inactivity replaced by a pair of killer shots, very easily. And the match with Slovakia was, in fact, the last chance to Sergei rest.

What exactly Khudobin worse Barulin spent an awful season, why Barulin misses the application matches what was needed feint ears with Antonio a couple of minutes ( stories about the lack of stops in the game more fun – there and removing Kalyuzhny was 11 minutes before the end, and the goal for Malkin almost 9, and 1 stop), and then release the ball in the second match of the day for 2, we were not going to explain. We have, however, are accustomed to.

Although it is interesting, although the coaching staff to know how things have Bobrowski in similar situations ( 2 matches in 2 days) this season? If you do not know, then we will tell. The percentage reflected – 89,7% ( While the sample is too small, of course), with an average 90.8% for the season. It is, by the way, fits in multiple studies, according to which the understudy, if you play the second match of the day, almost always preferable, because the ratio neprobivaemosti sags more than a percentage. It is true, of the NHL regular season, but we have here is not the playoffs.

Three Shipacheva not ready to take out the entire team of the tournament

What the percentage of dangerous moments Russian team creates when ice has three fostered Bykov and Zakharkin robot scorer: 60 or more? Slovak defenders certainly vybesili to white heat Panarin maneuvers outside the gates, which could saunter half a minute and look for the moment to pass without letting opponents get to the puck.

Today, showed himself worthy of amateur performances posleigrovyh Gudacheka successfully lure and trap the puck other limbs. And so – the first link feigned more than one goal, albeit one that ultimately decided the fate of the match. Even if the general manager of “Chicago” Stan Bowman does not smoke, his hand must have been more than once for the World Cup lasted for quite a cigar.

If you suddenly still in doubt, look whether the remaining matches of the national team of Russia at the World Cup, just be aware of: a great, amazing, unparalleled three Dadonov – Shipachev – Panarin’s left to watch two to four matches.

In the game the team no progress

By the assurance of the coaching staff, it was the best match of the national team. However, what specific components – it was not mentioned. Unfortunately. Because Znarka team continues to stagnate. Organized games in the middle zone as there was no and no. Forcheking happens if / work, then, for the most part, spontaneously. Game control is not too noticeable. It seems to have worked, and plan to play the point, but in overtime to throw in the end zone and out Panarin Dadonov. Yes, Artemy scored, but rather in spite of, and at the point of the episode is lost.

It seems that everything at the mercy of the players. What training for a particular opponent is not. What is the course of the match varies only the order of output triples / steam and then, how often they change. Here in Slovakia at the beginning of the game were average area without interference, and in the end, did not by changing yourself. And we benefited from this advantage, and could easily use a couple more times. And if, say, the Czechs will something undergo regular, and let it pass?

Yes, a lot rests on the “physics” and time before the playoffs is still there. But think about it, to remove the three Shipacheva – and that would be with this team?

coaching staff a lot left to the players themselves

This is likely is accompanied by the phrase “men, understand yourself, you are the master.” In general, this method of work is clear. The current version of the team is not a pilot, there are enough players with good experience of playing in any situation, at any level, with what you want partners. There is no particular reason to trust, for example, Evgeni Malkin.

In addition, there are things that our coaching staff just not used to correct for a few days. As he said Oleg Znarok uncertain about the game attacking the central point of the face-off – working on this for months, and we have that two days have to train? All right, in this situation, it seems clear another solution – to maintain motivation at a high level, point-to adjust the composition of units and rely on the ability / skill of the players.

It seems that now the team does so. If the head coach of organized team play as it used to do, we would have seen the same thing in Minsk – Moscow “Dynamo” with top-level performers. But this is not in sight. When Oleg Znarok complained after the match that the players themselves have decided to win at half strength ( as it was after Denmark) – also quite a symptom . Whole system in the game the Russians are not seen by the movement of the Dynamo samples, we are still far, the problem of organizing in the neutral zone today, could not even Slovakia. On the opposite end of the scale – chemistry army unit, a goal Sergei Mozyakina most and drop during the group stage Tarasenko.

Vladimir Tarasenko not need partners to light

We are experiencing a time for Vladimir to find the right partners and allowed to play most – that one of the best strikers ” St. Louis “was a sample two weeks ago. Let’s recreate the St. Petersburg unit of the lockout season 2012/13, we said. Or let Magnitogorsk replace Kulemina link that plays a working manner. None of this has been done, but nevertheless Tarasenko already very similar to that of the player enhaelovskih haylaytov shoot.

It turned out that it was necessary only to give an attacker to recover from the flight and get used to new surroundings. In a link in order to go on the ice it does not matter, because in order to cover the puck body, winning the fight at the sides, to be dispersed in the neutral zone, beat defenders and past the goalkeeper to throw, do not need any partners. Tarasenko has scored three goals in three games in a row. On the one hand – yes, “the storm authorities”, the Danes scored, Belarusians and Slovaks. On the other hand – if the Swedish contingent will be able to stop it?!

Russia striker earn yourself a little fouls

The Russian forwards until it turns quite successfully implement most – 8 goals after 18 attempts, almost every second chance spetsbrigady use. finally combination Malkin – Mozyakin created the position goal to play too much, but in effect the first spetsbrigady we had no doubt, and before the start of the championship. But we want to have opportunities to express themselves imprisoned by the majority of players has increased.

In the national team a lot of players who are able to go to run and earn yourself removal, but at the moment the judge reacted too slowly and raised his hand in during our attacks. The judges can hardly claim to present – rather, the fact that the opponents are trying to accurately enough to play against the Russians, and they do not create them Supercomplex.

Team Slovakia – the real level of teams Znarka

I do not know whether it will offend someone or not, but on Sunday night on the ice in Ostrava there were two approximately equal level team. No, to the match a believed that the class of these teams are totally different, but in fact turned out a little differently. Yes, as a counter-arguments can certainly poke statistics shots on target, where the team Znarka advantage of “10″, but if we talk directly about the scoring chances, the Russians did not look so powerful ( 9: 7). And even if we forget about the numbers and judged by the game itself – could do overtime anyone seem unfair outcome of these 60 minutes?

By the way, those who allegedly threw read after “two roughly equal in terms of the team”, then to write about it in the comments, nothing offended – this team of Slovakia, even the composition of one of the most powerful in recent years. And, as we have seen, not only in composition. A Russian team is still far from stable and optimal performance. This is its potential in the tournament in the Czech Republic. Only here is whether it is implemented – is another question.

match with the Finns will be decisive for the assessment of the group stage

The game of the team left a very mixed impression. Hockey players have passed the distance in six games, and that is capable of ( and whether) the Russian team, so no one knew. The defeat of the United States, the unexpected defeat of the Belarusians are not the unambiguous victory over Norway, Slovenia and Denmark with 7 missed goals in total. Now here’s the overtime with the Slovaks. All this, of course, suggestive, but does not result in some a clear unambiguous conclusion.

All that we know about this team Russia – it has the coolest first link, ready to solve the time, and maybe the whole game, but otherwise you can not be sure. The same Bobrowski us proves it from match to match.

What is most frightening – all of the components which should be added the Russian national team players to become a real superhero team “The Avengers” that sweeps away rivals out of the way, could remain elusive. Well, after sneaking gloomy thought: what if this team and there is no super powers, and should not be? In this regard, the match with the Finns should be more clear – the perfect test in the perfect moment of the tournament.
