"Lada" - "Metallurg" Magnitogorsk. Vladimir Plyushchev's rate

On the way to the playoffs

The regular season of the KHL is coming to an end. The intrigue in the Eastern conference is preserved. Only SKA has already secured a place in the top eight. CSKA is one step away from success. "Ak Bars" still has some work to do.

The rest of the teams have only theoretical chances of getting into the playoffs. However, no one has yet lost a mathematical chance. This means that the fate of the interested teams will be decided in the last rounds.

A series of defeats

Lada has won only one of the last five matches. And that victory was hard-won - over Vityaz from Balashikha. The Togliatti team has no more room for error if they want to fight for a place in the playoffs.

The game with Metallurg Magnitogorsk will be difficult for Lada. The Magnitogorsk team has already secured a place in the top eight, but they have not lost their motivation. They want to finish the regular season as high as possible in order to get a more favorable opponent in the first round of the playoffs.

Intrigue in the last round

The match between Lada and Metallurg Magnitogorsk will take place on March 1. The game will begin at 15:00 Moscow time. The intrigue in the Eastern conference will be maintained until the last round.
