The day before yesterday, October 12, the “teeth” achieved the first guest victory of the season, defeating in St. Petersburg “Shanghai Dregons” (3: 2). And today the wards of Sergey Brylin will try to consolidate success in the home game. Chances for a favorable outcome of the meeting should be. But Metallurg, of course, is set up to take the maximum. Magnitogorsk team is approaching today's competition with a series of three Victorias and generally won in the current championship 12 of 16 fights, so with 25 points leads the Eastern Conference table. So the Dynamos will have a very difficult time - there is no doubt about it.
We still have the best majority in the league (38.3 percent). Dynamo Minsk striker Christopher Tierney (3+14 points on the goal plus pass system) right now closes the top 3 in the list of scorers of the KHL, and Ty Smith (1+11) is the fifth scorer and third assistant among defenders.
Also in this short home series, the "teeth" will fight with Kazan "Ak Bars" (October 18). And then they will go to guest matches against Sochi (October 22) and Nizhny Novgorod Torpedo (October 24). Now the “white-blue”, having 17 points after 15 meetings, occupy the sixth position in the Western Conference table.
According to the results of the regular championship 2025/2026, the Minsk squad, we recall, scored 88 points and finished on the second line in the table of the conference “West” immediately after the Yaroslavl “Lokomotiv”. At the stage of the 1/8 finals, the “teeth” won the series against Moscow teammates with a dry score of 4: 0, but in the quarterfinals, the Minsk Dynamovites lost four times to the Kazan “Ak Bars”. In the overall table of the Kontinental Hockey League, the white-blues took fifth place for the first time in history.
